The fiberglass body kit is coming apart, leaking oil out of the rear main seal, seats and interior are nasty! PLUS the turbo is TINY, there's a boost controller, but its not hooked up, oil all over the timing belt and under the hood is filthy! So much for him saying thats it's in "excellent conditon" , i would at best place this in fair...and worst of all on the title it says something about not actual mileage. Guess ill just keep looking around, and hopefully find one and in 6mt!
Sorry to hear that.

If you don't mind me saying so, I knew something was up with the turbo when they only quoted 420rwhp...

Btw, if you're going to drag race it, you want an auto (not a tt). I'm not sure what you're planning to do with the car, so it's hard to advise you...

Lastly, note that the rear main seal is pretty easy to fix (relatively speaking).

Good luck with your search...

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
