See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"1987 Toyota Supra with 88,000 miles on the chassis (seriously)."

88,000 miled on the chassis (it was garaged for a long period of time in the 90's).  Started out as a non-turbo, but we turned it into a project car and swapped out the 7M-GE for a JDM 7M-GTE.  This car has TONS of premium parts under the hood, and that's where you'll find the true value.  This project is about 80% done but I no longer have the time or the funds to finish it up.

THIS CAR STARTS UP AND RUNS JUST FINE AS IS, it just needs a bit of tuning.  It's already pushing around 320hp.  All you need to do now is swap out the auto tranny for a manual.

The engine computer and harness are JDM, which means they were a bit too short for American cars, so the computer sticks out from the glovebox. You will need to extend the wire harness to be able to put the glovebox back.

The interior does need a new headliner and an armrest.  Other than that, the interior just has the wear and tear expected of a 1987 car.  The exterior could use a better paint job. Only minor dings which are hardly noticeable.  Some of the exterior mouldings are also missing.

 installed:

  • JDM 7M-GTE turbo inline-six engine
  • ETS intercooler system
  • 3" downpipe
  • 3" HKS cat-back exhaust system (this, plus the downpipe gives you 3" straight through to the turbo)
  • HKS blow-off valve
  • K&N intake

other extras:
  • replaced stock head gasket with metal head gasket (with ARP head studs) to prevent typical supra leaking problem
  • high quality spark plugs and wires installed
  • new timing belt
  • various sensors replaced
  • 17" rims and tires
  • you also get the stock 16" wheels as well
  • moonroof



There are some parts that I bought but never got to install, like a gauge pod with 3 gauges.

The exterior could use a better paint job, but it's not terrible.  Only minor dings which are hardly noticeable.  One of the door mouldings is also missing.

How new car shortages may impact your buying experience

Wed, 04 Sep 2013

If you want further proof that the auto industry is bouncing back, look no further than the empty lots and forecourts of your local dealership. According to a story by The Wall Street Journal, continued high demand for mainstream cars is overtaxing automakers' ability to produce enough models. Several dealers interviewed for the story are reporting two-week supplies as opposed to the typical two-month allocations.
With sales expected to hit 1.4 million units when August numbers arrive shortly and incentive spending down to its lowest amount since January, these limited supplies are pushing prices even higher. For example, according to the WSJ, the average price of a Ford Fusion is up past $26,000. Unfortunately, it's difficult for manufacturers to increase production quickly. If it invests in its facilities, as many manufacturers have done, it risks wasting cash if growth suddenly slows. At the same time, the momentum gained over the past several years could be short lived if vehicle supplies continue to dwindle. "Manufacturers are in a precarious situation," notes Karl Brauer, a senior director at Kelley Blue Book.
Low interest rates and a wealth of desirable features are also allowing customers to purchase more expensive vehicles while justifying their higher overall price tags, a situation that is compounding supply shortages. Even now, during the annual end-of-summer clearance season, deals on new vehicles are remarkably difficult to come by. According to the report, the Toyota Corolla is in a self-inflicted state of shortage, as Toyota clears out inventory in anticipation of the new 2014 generation arriving in dealers. Ford's supplies should rebound as Fusion production comes on line at its Flat Rock, Michigan factory. The Chevrolet Impala, Honda Odyssey, Civic, and Accord and Subaru Forester are also facing shortages.

Toyota might stop importing certain models if tariffs imposed

Fri, Jul 20 2018

In case you hadn't heard, the entire automotive industry, both domestic and foreign, is very much against the automotive tariffs proposed by the Trump administration. And while the industry is lobbying hard against such tariffs, companies are also having to consider what to do in the event they are passed. CEO of Toyota's North American operations, Jim Lentz, told Bloomberg that the company will certainly be reconsidering its strategy in the event of tariffs between 10 and 25 percent the cost of the car. He told the news outlet that, depending on how high the tariffs are, Toyota might just increase the price of some models, or stop importing them altogether. Toyota does build a large number of its cars here in the United States. The Toyota Camry, Avalon, Tundra, Highlander, Sequoia, Sienna models are all built here, as well as some Tacomas, Corolla sedans, and Lexus ES sedans. Many of those vehicles are big sellers for Toyota, too, so that's good for the company. But many other Toyotas are built outside the country. The Toyota RAV4, Prius range, C-HR, Corolla hatchback, Land Cruiser, 86, Yaris, Yaris sedan, Mirai, 4Runner, and the entire Lexus line are built in other countries. Some of these imports we're sure are safe no matter how high the tariffs might be. The RAV4 is the company's biggest seller, and the Prius sells well, too. Even if the Prius wasn't selling so well, the company would probably still sell it simply because it's an image builder. Somewhat related, we imagine Toyota would continue offering a handful of Mirais. The 4Runner, C-HR and Corolla hatchback would probably be safe, too. If these models stick around after potential tariffs are imposed, expect their prices to increase. But in the Toyota line, anything that's not selling well and has tight margins is probably doomed. Chief among them are the French-built Yaris hatchback and the Mexican-built Yaris iA sedan. Both cars have terrible sales, and being low-end cheap cars, they'll only sell worse with higher prices, and Toyota will lose money if it has to eat the tariff. The 86 is a similar situation in which it's a niche vehicle that has had weak sales and is being sold at a relatively low price. The Land Cruiser could go either way. It sells in small numbers, but it's already extremely expensive and continues to sell. Buyers might not be put off by spending some more.
