Well - you've all seen my other Supra Turbo, which is still on axle stands waiting to be finished, but this is the other Supra Turbo I have, which is my daily driven Automatic.
It's completely standard, barring an adjustable wastegate to bring the boost to 8psi (Standard boots on the Manual) from the standard 5psi (Automatic's were set lower). The wheels are the later 91-92 5-spokes, albeit without the centrecaps (which were unfortunately mangled in a box!).
There are a few things that need to be done - most notably, a bloody good service. New Lexus LS400 oil filter, a new radiator cap (1.1 bar Toyota Original, no Halford cheapness!), autobox filter & dexron II, valve shims (£8 each from Toyota!
) and a few other odds & ends.
The things that are nagging me other than the service items, are the lower trim pieces at the bottom rear of the front wings, which look to be held on with silicone sealant, rather than the proper clips. However, i'm also deathly afraid to remove them in case the bottom of the wings come with it!
There's also a spot of rust bubbling showing up on the rear outer arch (passenger side), an ominous sign that the arches have totally had it (it may LOOK fine but underneath, it's scream inducing!
Could probably do with a clean & tidy on the inside as well ;D
Here are the pics:
