Clarksville, Tennessee, United States
|
For sale is a 1990 Toyota Supra, factory turbo model, targa, OEM silver paint (paint code 176), clean TN title in hand, no liens, no known history of accidents, 197,000 miles on chassis, roughly 70,000 miles on motor and trans. The car received a 1JZ-GTE swap (Non VVTI) in late 2007 by a performance shop in California. The car was also re-sprayed in the OEM color around the same time. The car has had the same owner for the past 6+ years (was purchased while the car was being swapped with 1JZ), and has been driven almost 20,000 miles since receiving the 1JZ swap. The car has only been used in the past six years as a warm weather car, and has been kept at home during the Winter months (usually from late November to early March. The car is only being sold due to a lack of interest and space.
The head-gasket was replaced with a new factory head-gasket, ARP head studs, and the head was machined slightly as part of preventive maintenance by a performance shop Texas in June of 2008. The original OEM head gasket was in perfect shape, and the car has no overheated since having the 1JZ swap. The car received a single turbo in 2009 as result from the rear turbo having a blown seals (a common problem for CT12s). In 2011 the car received a T4 turbo setup, and the Drift Motion 57trim was added in 2012 to give the car a balanced power-band. Some of the invoices for parts and labor will be included, this includes the head-work from Del's Performance in 2008. The car currently runs extremely well, with no mechanical problems except for needing a alignment, which the car will receive before being sold. The engine is healthy, no leaks, no smoke, has a broad power-band, and performs well under boost. The car typically has positive pressure around 2500 RPM, and reaches full around 4000 RPM. The exhaust is custom 3 inch, and is relatively quiet; it can barely be heard outside of the cabin while driving. In June of 2012 the made 354 whp, 330 torque at 16 pounds on a Dyno Dynamics, which typically reads 15% lower than a Dyno Jet. The only major change since being on the dyno is replacing the Tial with a generic 46mm waste-gate. The transmission has no grinds, shifts well in every gear, and is showing no signs of fatigue. The clutch works well, and holds the power with no problems. Overall, the car still has plenty of untapped potential it could reach by adding only a few modifications such as; 550cc injectors, USDM 2JZ cams or Brain Crower cams, and possibly a stand alone EMS. Aesthetically, the car could use a good quality respray. The resprayed paint overall looks ok at best. The exterior and interior look good for the age of the car, but the car has several smaller dents, the dash has a crack, the carpet has significant wear, and the steering wheel has aged. The currently has a black dash pad, and a better looking steering wheel will be included. There is no rust (SoCal car) and no body damage. The cost of parts to convert a MA70 to a 1JZ using a single turbo will typically cost an average of $7,000 or more in parts. This is not even factoring the cost of a shell or the necessary supporting modifications. It is also rare for a 1JZ swapped MA70 to be sold on eBay. Feel free to ask questions related to the car's condition. Thanks for looking.

Toyota to end Australian production by 2017
Mon, 10 Feb 2014There is more bad news for the Australian auto industry today, as Toyota has just announced that it will follow General Motors and Ford in shuttering its manufacturing operations on the continent. Production and assembly will cease by the end of 2017, but Toyota will remain in Australia as a sales and distribution company.
"We did everything that we could to transform our business, but the reality is that there are too many factors beyond our control that make it unviable to build cars in Australia," said Toyota Australia President and CEO Max Yasuda.
In an official statement, Yasuda said that the closure would directly affect 2,500 manufacturing employees and an unknown number of corporate workers. However, a report in the Australian newspaper The Age suggests that the jobs of 24,000 workers at Australian auto suppliers could also be in jeopardy. Toyota currently builds its Camry, Camry Hybrid, Aurion sedans in Australia, along with four-cylinder engines, and it plans to begin importing the Camry and Aurion after production stops.
2nd annual Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards revealed
Tue, Jan 13 2015There was some absolutely fantastic auto advertising in 2014, ranging from funny to inspiring. Marking the best of it from the past year, the Second Annual One Show Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards were announced during the 2015 Detroit Auto Show (full disclosure: Autoblog was among the award's sponsors, and Editor-in-Chief Sharon Carty was a voter). Unlike previously, there were no brands with dominance over the list this time. Presented by The One Club, the awards have an international scope and hand out honors in a variety of categories. In the Broadcast TV group, there were three winners this year. First, there was The Scripted Life from Audi for the Q3 about breaking out of life's monotony. Also, Dad's Sixth Sense from Hyundai marketed the safety features in the Genesis. Finally, Unbreakable Drivers showed manly men being tested for the Toyota Hilux in Australia. The Online Video prize went to the fantastic The Epic Split spot from Volvo Trucks starring Jean-Claude Van Damme. The best Interactive ad was the Honda video titled The Other Side for the Civic Type R, and the Experiential Advertising nod was for the Volkswagen Eyes on the Road clip that showed the dangers of texting and driving to a theater full of moviegoers in Hong Kong. Finally, the Public Choice Award went to the BMW commercial called Hello Future using the words of sci-fi author Arthur C. Clarke for the i8. In the award not for videos, Jeep won the Print/Outdoor category for its Upside Down campaign. Check the ads out below, which show different animals when upside down. Also, look farther down for all of the winning videos and read their full announcements.

Winners will be presented on-stage at a special event during the NAIAS Press Preview on Tuesday, January 13, 2015, at the Cobo Center in Detroit at 4:55 p.m. The event is sponsored by AOL's Autoblog.
How new car shortages may impact your buying experience
Wed, 04 Sep 2013If 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.
