well there's couple for now... when i find some more i'll add them :)

yeh i thought they all went out.....how old are those pics (when were they taken)??

they're from bout 87-88... there were group a's in 89 as well but after that kinda gave up hehe
we did win the african safari rally in 87... audi 200 quattro 4wd's came first and second and us 2wd's came third... hell yea for the supra ;)

once upon a time there was a supra in the le-mans.....

apparently we also raced in Bathurst... spose if i looked hard enuf on the www i would find it somewhere hehe

this calls for a.......................google search

lol
well post it all up when u find some good stuff ;)

ok will do just remind me in a week......i will have probably forgotten lol

LoL

whoops i just read this post again and realise i had forgotton to do my research........SUPRA GIRL u were sposed 2 remind me i blame YOU

well just as i read this i remembered that i was supposed to remind you :lol:

*goes searching on google for some more info*

tell me wat u find i still havnt looked :) me lazy

that minolta car is j-spec...might have a 1jz hey :D :rolleyes: :D

LOL
sorry to dash your dreams & hopes :P
only mk3 supras used in rally, bathurst, targa etc were the 7mge and 7mgte's ;)

ok...

was that minolta racing at bathurst????

still it has Jspec indicators and series two front nose cone...hence my hurried conclusion that it was a 1j

i'm not totally sure what raced where but i do know that 1j's were never raced
86,88 = narrow body (pancake) preface bumpers and lights and dash etc with 230hp motor and the 1ggte 210hp
87 widebody aero all options 7mgte, 1ggte, preface bumpers and lights but some interior styling upgraded
late 89-92 facelift bumpers, lights 7mgte, 1ggte, 1jzgte
altho i believe they stopped producing the 7m engine i think they had thousands left over so hence why they got chucked into the 89-92's along with the 1jz and 1ggte ;)

not all facelift cars are 1jz's B)

that wasnt why i said it had a 1j, i know that not all facelift models have a 1j....i was more interested in the fact that it had the J-spec parker/indicator assembly.

what do you consider jspec assembly? maybe im not familar with your terms

where the whole front lense of your parker assembly is orange..thats jspec

well the front indicators are jspec here... full orange lenses
usdm = full orange
only ones that i know of so far are nz new assembled, euro and german are half clear half amber

and they came with all engines ;)
apparently there is a 1jz that was used for racing but not sure what class or anything... bit of a mystery really hehe

The cars raced at bathurst were Turbo-A Spec Mark 3 Supras, which came with 7M-GTEU motors. (Special Turbo-A spec, produced 267bhp stock). Guess what car won bathurst in 1991? (year before skyline won).

Here's the Japanese Group-A touring car, also a Turbo-A.
