Get my JDM Supra this week.... what would you do?
Just got contacted by my broker yesterday that I will get my '93 JDM Supra by the end of this week. It has 60,000 orginal KMS but has been parked for a long time.
What would you suggest I do when it arrives regarding paint and surface treatments. Also should I bring it into my local Toyota to have the fluids flushed and changed. Thanks. I am so freakin excited. This is mine and the kids cant get in it yet. No car seats or spilled milk, crackers or the smell of a smelly diaper. Here is a picture. |

Full Synthetic oil for the oil change, for starters. Which fluids will you need to change, according to the maintenance schedule? Is it a 6spd or auto? Also, what is your application (daily drive, highway racing, autocross, drag racing, roadracing, drifting, etc.)?
Great!

RHOWELL, please note: The fluids that I specified are for lamw001's application, not necessarily yours (since you didn't answer my questions)...
