If it's an n/a I can't advise you on special requirements, but if it were a tt I'd suggest you to do a compression test in addition to all other standard checks you'd do buying any used vehicle. The 2jz-ge also requires premium fuel so I would guess that running it on (for example) 87 octane constantly would eventually hurt the engine.

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
