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 interior does need a new headliner and an armrest.
The engine computer and harness are JDM, which means they were a bit too short for American cars, so the computer was put where the glovebox was.  You will need to extend the wire harness to be able to put the glovebox back.
Other than that, the interior just has the wear and tear expected of a 1987 car.

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.

Toyota Camry, Lexus RX to get aluminum parts

Tue, 23 Sep 2014

Ah, aluminum. The lightweight, strong material has long held a following within the premium ranks, but as Ford prepares to launch an aluminum F-150, the material is gaining acceptance among more mainstream automakers. Toyota is one such brand, with a new report indicating that the Japanese giant will add aluminum bits and bobs to some of its upcoming vehicles.
These won't be full, aluminum-intensive treatments like the F-150, however. Automotive News reports that an aluminum hood and liftgate will be coming to the 2016 Lexus RX, and following that, the Camry will get a bonnet built from Element 13 for model year 2018.
As AN points out, Toyota is no stranger to aluminum, using it in Japanese-built models like the Prius and Scion FR-S. The RX and Camry, though, will mark the first time the company's North American factories will use the material, and they'll do so on a significantly larger scale, owing to the higher volumes that the Camry and RX represent.

Toyota Alphard and Vellfire JDM minivans look weirder than ever

Mon, Jan 26 2015

Around these parts, if you want a Toyota minivan, you'll be looking at the Sienna. But in its domestic market, the Japanese automaker offers an entirely different line of passenger vans. And now it's updated one of its larger models. Or two, we should say. Since Toyota operates parallel dealership networks in Japan, the minivan you see here is sold as the Alphard through Toyopet dealers and the Vellfire in its Netz showrooms. They also get subtly different designs, especially at the front. But stylistic and distribution differences aside, these two models are essentially the same. They're smaller than the Sienna we know in every dimension but height, but larger than the Voxy/Noah and Esquire, and come in a variety of trims and configurations: with a 2.5-liter four, a 3.5-liter V6 or a hybrid powertrain, in seven- or eight-seat configurations, with or without handicapped accessibility, and in trim levels that can more than double their price from the base model to the top Executive Lounge. Initially launched in 2002 and redesigned for 2015, the new Alphard and Vellfire also benefit from a redesigned suspension, better NVH insulation and a more accommodating and upscale interior with new technologies (including a new Panoramic View Monitor, Intelligent Parking Assist and collision-avoidance systems) to make them more comfortable, safer and easier to operate. Between the two models, Toyota expects to sell 7,000 units each month in Japan alone (3,000 Alphards and 4,000 Vellfires) before other markets across Asia are even taken into account. Related Video: Toyota Launches New 'Alphard' and 'Vellfire' Minivans in Japan Toyota City, Japan, January 26, 2015-Toyota Motor Corporation today launched the redesigned "Alphard" and "Vellfire" minivans through dealers across Japan. The vehicles were developed to incorporate the idea of a roomy and luxurious saloon space with a new and unprecedented sense of refinement. The new Alphard and Vellfire possess unshakeable presence with a comfortable ride, exceptional handling stability, and a roomy interior. The Alphard exterior emphasizes luxury, while the Vellfire exterior emphasizes boldness. In addition to high body rigidity, a newly developed double-wishbone suspension was adopted for the rear to achieve a luxurious ride and exceptional handling stability. Extensive sound and vibration dampening and an aerodynamic wind-noise reducing body shape realize a quiet ride at all speeds, befitting of a luxury vehicle.

GT Academy returns, and why Gran Turismo 6 demands a pedal/wheel setup

Fri, 18 Apr 2014

The path to become a racing driver is a difficult one. It requires starting early, with karts, and then building up through the years and if you're really, really good (and really, really lucky), a team will notice you and sign you up. Or, you know, you could just become really good at Gran Turismo, and beat out other like-minded fanatics for a seat in the GT Academy.
The racing school, which culls its students from the ranks of Gran Turismo players has already pumped out successful racers, most notably, Lucas Ordoñez, who has a second and third-place finish under his belt at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. With the 2014 GT Academy kicking off April 21 and running through June 16, you could have a chance to be the next Ordoñez.
That won't be easy, though. We recently had a playthrough on GT6 the proper way - with a racing seat, pedals and a steering wheel, complete with column-mounted paddles. (Our setup looked just like the one you see above, though that image is from E3.) In other words, it was as close to driving an actual car as most console games can get.
