Sorry, but those maintenance records are fake. The Mkiv Supra Turbo was released in 93.5...there were no Mkiv Supra Turbos sold in '92.

What do you mean by an "engine re-map"? The Mkiv Supra Toyota's ecu is not easily modifiable ... a piggyback board has to be added, and there are very few sources for it.

I agree it looks in great condition. If it checks out with your independent Supra expert, I'd recommend it based on those pictures. Again, you need it inspected by a mechanic familiar with the Mkiv Toyota Supra Turbo, and you need it test driven by someone that knows exactly how an Mkiv Toyota Supra Turbo should sound and perform. Oh, and of course be sure to figure out what's up with those fake maintenance records.

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.
