I've had this car for 8 years.  It's served me well as both my daily driver and as the tuning project it has become.  It starts up and runs just fine (see videos). The interior does need a new headliner and an armrest.
The engine computer and harness are JDM, which means it was 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 (included) back to its original place.
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.

The engine setup is where the real value of the car is.  Most of the work is already done, and it's 80% of where I wanted it to be.  It's already pushing around 320hp.  All you need to do now is swap out the auto tranny for a manual, and tune.  The car runs just fine as is though.

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

other extras:
  • replaced stock head gasket with metal head gasket (with ARP head studs) to prevent the typical supra leaking problem
  • high quality iridium 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 also some included parts that I never got to install, like a gauge pod with 3 gauges, and a boost controller.

Toyota engineer warns automous cars could increase fuel use, urban sprawl

Fri, 18 Jul 2014

An increasing number of people are starting to consider the potential downsides of a transition to autonomous cars. The FBI is already looking at them for the potential ill effects on law enforcement, and a scientist for Toyota is raising the possibility that driverless vehicles could actually be detrimental to the environment over the long term.
Ken Laberteaux, who studies future transportation for Toyota, thinks that autonomous cars could lead to more pollution, not less, says Bloomberg. However, Laberteaux's theory isn't so much based purely on science as it is considering behavioral and historical trends. "US history shows that anytime you make driving easier, there seems to be this inexhaustible desire to live further from things," said Laberteaux during a presentation at the Automated Vehicles Symposium in San Francisco, CA, cited by Bloomberg.
Laberteaux's belief is that if commuters can make their drives easier, then they will be more willing to live farther away from the cities where they work. The end result would be more urban sprawl and increased pollution from the longer travel times.

California readies big 'red carpet' for hydrogen cars, H2 stations

Mon, Aug 4 2014

The Golden State is sinking some serious green into its hydrogen-refueling infrastructure. But California says it's rolling out the red carpet for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. Maybe we'll get our colors straight eventually. With a goal to have 1.5 million zero-emissions vehicles on California roads by 2025, the California Air Resources Board is outlining plans to sink $50 million into opening 28 publicly accessible hydrogen refueling stations by the end of 2015 and more than 50 ready for business by 2017. Today, California is home to all but one of the country's 11 public hydrogen stations (the other is in South Carolina). The most recent addition was at Cal State Los Angeles in May for the university's Hydrogen Research and Fueling Facility. Most of the first expansion of 28 stations will be represented by a partnership Toyota and FirstElement Fuel Inc. announced this spring. FirstElement is headed by ex-General Motors and Hyundai executive Joel Ewanick. The collaboration will help build out 19 hydrogen refueling stations, which are said to be located so that anyone in the state can reach them with their H2 car. HyGen Industries, Linde and the Institute of Gas Technology are among the other entities breaking out refueling stations. Check out CARB's press release below. California agencies roll out red carpet for hydrogen electric vehicles State partnerships accelerate the transition to zero-emission vehicles SACRAMENTO - California state agencies are collaborating on a range of initiatives to support the goal of 1.5 million zero-emission vehicles on the road by 2025. Last week, the California Energy Commission carried out one of these initiatives, voting to use nearly $50 million to put in place 28 new, public hydrogen refueling stations and one mobile refueler by the end of 2015. The move was one of several actions designed to help achieve a key goal of the state's zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) plan: to accelerate construction of hydrogen refueling infrastructure across the state. "California is rolling out the red carpet for Californians who choose these ultra-clean hydrogen powered electric cars and for the companies that make them," said Air Resources Board Chairman Mary D. Nichols.
