1993.5 Toyota Supra Turbo(single) 6-speed on 2040-cars
Golden, Colorado, United States
**Updated 7/10** After numerous showings/emails/texts/phone calls etc, I wanted to update this ad with more info. This Supra started life as a pampered NA 5-speed Supra for the first 105k miles of it's existence. Roughly 8 years ago, the transplant was completed (professionally), from Non-turbo 5-speed to TT- 6-speed(Getrag). The 2JZ-GTE engine saw no more than factory boost limits (~11.7psi) for nearly the entire life of the current engine(up until about 200 miles ago). The car has the complete NA-TT swap minus the rear brake calipers. The only reason is that ultimately I might have put a set of 15" drag wheels on the car, and the TT rear calipers don't work with these anyway, so the NA rear calipers remain. All other standard NA to turbo parts have been converted(Front TT calipers, driveshaft, rear end, LSD,etc.). Currently the Car is running a single turbo conversion, and is at ~500rwhp. The car is on stock fuel and ECU, and the clutch has a "stock feel". This makes for the perfect street Supra. If you ever driven or owned a Supra with 800+hp, it sounds great on paper, but is simply not "streetable". This car has the best of both worlds....Perfectly streetable--drives like a stock Supra....with a ton more "punch". And is ready to go to the next level (give it AEM EMS and a Fuel upgrade and you're at 700+hp). Please see the numerous pics below, but I would describe the car as followed: Exterior- Interior- Motor- The car does emit a little blue smoke on start up, which is the value steam seals (very common GTE issue). I wanted to make sure that health of the motor is good however, so I just took the car in to get a compression and leak down test. Both tests came back perfect!(formal documentation can be sent upon request). Brand new plugs were just gapped, and installed, and the coilpacks were checked for any cracks (again..no issues). As stated above this engine wasn't abused, and never pushed beyond 12psi. Exact mileage of the engine is unknown, but approximate mileage is 50-60K. In addition, the mileage of the chasis (138,200) is actually high. The rear gearing wasn't swapped till about 2 months ago, so it was reading ~30% incorrect. I estimate the actual mileage of the car at ~128K. Items of attention- 1. The rear power antenna is broke off at the base (all Toyotas/Lexus's with this style antenna eventually break......poor design). The car has a App Radio, so it uses your cellphone to stream musics (Pandora, etc), so I never bothered to fix the antenna. Shipping/trades/financing: 1. I will sell the car internationally, if the buyer pays all expenses, and completes payment via bank wire. I live in Colorado so shipment to any "Port" city would have to be paid for at the buyers expense. I will also ship the car to anywhere in the US (again the buyers expense---Uship is actually very reasonable), but payment would have to be made via Cashiers check, or bank wire. 2. I'm not accepting any trades at this time. 3. Financing- MKIV Supras are between 16 and 21 years old. You typically cannot finance these cars "traditionally". I"ve personally used JJBest, as they will finance any Classic or Specialty vehicle with 20% down. Also Credit unions typically are a better bet than large banks.

Toyota launches BMW-powered Verso in Europe
Tue, 03 Dec 2013BMW makes some sweet-revving engines, but its own vehicles aren't the only ones running BMW engines. So do the latest from Rolls-Royce and Mini, of course, as well as a handful of Peugeots and Citroëns thanks to its joint engine program with PSA. Wiesmann uses BMW engines, as did the famous McLaren F1. And now we can add one more to the list.
That would be the Toyota Verso, a Corolla-based minivan which Toyota builds in Turkey and sells in Europe and a few other markets overseas. The Verso is also now officially the first beneficiary of the partnership between Toyota and BMW as the Japanese automaker has released the MPV with BMW's 1.6-liter turbodiesel four.
The 111-horsepower engine is coupled to a Toyota transmission and joins the Verso range as the fourth (and least powerful) engine in the lineup, alongside the 122hp 2.0 diesel and the gasoline options with 1.6 liters and 160 hp and 1.8 for 180. Future collaborations between the two automakers will include fuel-cell development, a new joint sportscar platform, lightweight bodywork research and a new generation of lithium-air batteries. See the press release below for further details.
Next Toyota Prius may get optional all-wheel drive
Tue, Jul 15 2014We've been hearing rumors about the next generation of the Toyota Prius for the last couple of years on a pretty regular basis. From the expectation of lithium-ion battery packs with more capacity for electric-only miles to wireless charging and more emotional styling, there's been no shortage of talking points for the car that's expected to see its first light of day at the very end of 2015 (we hope). But one thing we've yet to hear about, until now that is, is all-wheel drive. According to a report from Automotive News, Koei Saga, senior managing officer in charge of powertrain development of the Prius, said in an interview last week, "I think we will possibly do [all-wheel drive]" for the car's next generation. There isn't any further indication on how the AWD system would work, but we'd put our money on something similar, at least in principle, to the E-Four system that just debuted on the 2015 Lexus NX 300h, which uses an electric motor mounted at the rear to power the car's back wheels when the front wheels lose traction. The AN report also repeats a rumor we've heard before – that Toyota may offer two different battery pack options in its next Prius, one using lithium-ion chemistry and one using the nickel metal hydride technology that the Prius has featured from its very beginning. While the automaker has yet to talk efficiency, it's natural to expect more capacity for EV driving from newer lithium-based technology over that of nickel-based packs to go along with what we'd also expect would be a somewhat higher price. We're sure you're just as curious about the next Prius as much as we are, and so we'll leave you with these words, again from Saga: "The batteries will be renewed. Everything will be revised. And I think we will come up with a fuel economy that will surprise everyone."
Toyota moving US headquarters to Plano, Texas
Mon, 28 Apr 2014It's official, Toyota is relocating its US operations to Plano, TX. And it won't be a symbolic 'all ranch and no cattle' gesture - the Japanese automaker, whose headquarters have been in California since 1957, has decided to base nearly all of its operations in the Lone Star State, including much of its engineering, finance and sales and marketing teams.
The move, which will see the establishment of a new headquarters campus in the Dallas suburb will not only affect employees at the company's current Torrance, CA Toyota Motor Sales USA campus, it will also touch the lives of thousands of employees at the company's other operations, including 1,000 workers at Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing North America in Erlanger, KY and some New York-based staff as well. The Toyota Technical Center in Ann Arbor, MI is not facing relocation, however, and it actually stands to gain responsibilities as Toyota overhauls its US org chart. Toyota says that its reorganization will affect about 4,000 employees in total.
According to Automotive News, while Toyota is adopting an "'everyone is invited' stance for the relocation," some attrition is expected from employees who aren't interested in relocating southward from the Golden State. For its part, the automaker is reportedly making expenses-paid visits to Plano available to full-time staffers and spouses to help them make the relocation decision, as well as a lump-sump payment if they decide to go through with the move.
