hehe, new thread, new car =D 94 supra turbo

blah. story time!

well, actually not. in a nutshell: itll take another ~4 months until the MR2 is up for sale. so in the meantime, i was looking at a 1967 Mustang (V8 engine, edelbrock heads...600 bucks, but havent seen it yet), and a 1987 supra turbo, which has no mechanical problems whatsoever except for a slightly screwy speedometer.

seeing as how my mom is a complete idiot and wont even take the time to check out the mustang, im going to see the supra tomorrow, which i will most likely end up buying. anyone know of any forums i could go to, any problems which occur around, oh say, 138k miles

easy to maintain, what should i do to keep it in running order for as long as possible, etc. i was thinking a total rebuild, until i found out the pricetag, so forget it. no rust, runs great, automatic, power everything, blablabla, $3300.

thanks for all input!

The Only Problem I Heard With Those Is That The #6 Cylinder Can Crack Due To Poor Casting.
