i have had my 84 supra for 7 years it has 197,000 miles on it and still runs like brand new i have had it in the garage for some time now waiting for a chance to upgrade the engine. i found my 87 supra turbo like 2 months ago the guy hit a deer and destroyed the nose, hood , lights , drivers fender. the fan ate the radiator so i had some work to get the front cross member straight again. i will post pics of the progress from start to finish. the 87 had a lot of work done to it when i bought it. the guy had owned like 4 supras before this one so he knew what he could use for it. from what i know he replaced the whole fuel system from the fuel pump to the injecters with one from a 90-93 twin turbo so there is no more fuel rail. he had HKS cams installed, its lowered 1 1/2 in. ,turbo back 3in. pipe to a nasty magnaflow. (all you can hear though is the turbo) K&N filter charger installed, a programed ECU, upgraded oil pump, short shift. i dont know all that he has done but i have the dyno that says 467hp so he has put some time into it. i will pick it up from there when i get the time but my reason for even getting the 87 besides from the insane speed is to swap everything into my 84 once i strip it down and build it back up restored strickly for the strip completely gutted of all the extra weight i can possibly remove. once i get the body and inside done i will swap everything and prob go right for the twin turbo setup. anyway thats the plan and why i came here for any questions i could run into. ohh and i also bought an 82 datson 280ZX 2 seater when i bought my 87 supra but thats another story....
