Sway_NV is on a distinguished road
Default Hey, Newbie here! (Soon to be a MkIV owner)

Hello all, the names Sway.
I live in South Texas and I'm only 20 years young =P
I'm currently in the market for a turbo MkIV, I'm going
in today to see what kind of loans I can get. I've been
an admirer of the MkIV since before I was even interested
in cars. I currently drive a 2000 Honda Prelude, and I love
it! But granted, the Supra is a new league entirely. In both
looks, and performance.

Basically I'm just introducing myself, I plan on sticking around
and learning as much about the car as I can before I buy her, so I can
treat her right! So don't worry, no Wings bigger than the car, unpainted
badly done body kits, ect ect. Maybe a nice front lip with a slight drop =)

I've already done a lot of searching on "What to look for when buying
a Supra" threads, lots of great info guys (and girls?) Thanks!
But is 94,XXX miles too much to buying a Supra? Also, the main
Supra I am looking at, has a "PowerHouse Racing-Garrett hybrid
60mm single turbo" What can you all tell me about that turbo?
Any and all Information is very appreciated, I'm a Turbo super-n00b =(
Some of the other mods it has are as follows:
- K&N filter on PHR bent mandrel intake.
- PHR fuel pulsation dampener bypass.
- HKS EVC (boost controller)
- Apexi Super AFC
- HKS Type 1 turbo timer
- PHR downpipe
- Greddy intercooler
- HKS Super Suquential Blow off Valve
- GReddy boost gauge.

How does that setup sound? Strong? Reliable?

And as far as rims, do 18x9 for the front, and 18x10 in the rear fit nicely?

And for a last question, Any opinions on the sound of a Apexi GT Spec Exhaust?

Thanks for reading! I hope to join the Toyota family asap!
And for all who answer my questions, thanks in advance!

And just for the hell of it,
A pic I took of my current car.

EDIT: Loan's approved but payments are high. Gonna keep shopping.
