Yeah keeping the supra sure would be great, my first car was a mazda Rx-7. I still miss that car, it was very dependable for me, she never let me down. Sold it for 500 bucks and i wish i never sold it. I will never sell my supra.

I've had my mk3 for just about 5 weeks. But fuel pump? has caused me to park her for the last couple of weeks. She was doing great as a daily driver but one morning, she was good goin west. Turned right and felt like she stalled... but her rpm's just pffffttt... she stalled once I took my foot off the gas.. and would only start once a day for ~10 days and run for a few seconds at ~200rpm before she'd stall or scare me into shutting her off.

Hope to get her fixed this weekend, and hoping to not have continued problems... although I know I need to fix the connector to the thermostat sensor and get my alignment done... hopefully it stops there till I can save for emergencies again.

I've only had mine for about a month, but I love it to death already, haven't gotten nearly much work done on it, but I know when I'm done with it she'll be driving like a champ.
I would love a 93 though can't seem to find any where I'm from unless I want to pay out like 10 Grand, because it was someone elses project.
My 89 still turns heads and people ask me all kinds of questions, some I can't even answer.

89's (mk3) can be just as good as 93's (mk4)... The mk4's are expensive... 10k for someone's project car means it's probably not running, or needs more attention... I see them going for 16k on low end for good condition out here in the Southwest.. however, with time and money, you can put a 2jz into the mk3.. but you might wanna swap the trannies too...

"Owned" 85 supra for 1 year ran on 260/60r14s

replaced alternator, and did my Regular maintenance(pads spark plugs distributer caps bla bla), had to sell it because "major leak" i was putting 5 liters/month of oil and i could do 2 things...
find and fix leak/ lots of money losing...
or sell the car for 2000$ (and i did) and buy my friends 87 supra N/A (230'000 on car with a total engine rebuild year and a half ago)
started fresh.. really really miss the other car though..
but on the other hand i decided to find another 85 supra in my later days..
i can't wait, think about drifting it again every day...
