Noob to Supras here! I have a 2001 Celica I've been modding out, but recently found a 1987mkIII I am interested in. Non-turbo ( I think turbos didn't come until 88?) 5 speed. Body is excellent shape, interior excellent. Has 150000 miles. Besides asking about the HG and apr bolts, what else should I look for? He is sking $2500 or BO, which seems fair to me. What do you think? Thanks

Thanks! As for swapping in the turbo, you're probably right!
