ahha yeh that rule REALLY sucks out here. hate it .
The bf wants to get the Type R integra ( 2002 RSX )

#1So what am i looking at for a supra ( importing ) , is it best to do it myself? or through a company.. ex: my budddies skyrine shop?

#2WHat are some typical problems that occur with most Supras?

#3 someone wanna teach me stick? lol! :help::frown:

#1. it's best to do it with a shop, it will be like 1000$ more expensive but you will save yourself a MILLIONS of problems! trust me!

#2. PWPANAS can tell you all of that, right Phil :)?

#3. lol??

If it's unmodified, well-maintained, and low-to-mid mileage, there are no serious problems that occur with most Mkiv Supra TTs. Really!

High mileage (>150K miles) Mkiv Supra TT's can be prone to a few relatively minor issues, depending upon how hard they've been driven. One example is the harmonic dampener - it typically should be replaced at this mileage. Also consider the coilpacks at this mileage to be a 'consumable', and they should be replaced too. Keep an eye on the turbos, as they can possibly fail this 'early' if driven hard. On the other hand, I've seen the oem twins last over 200K miles if not 'abused'. The oem bov will probably start leaking a bit of boost (i.e. slightly limit your max boost) at 100K or so. Other that that, it's pretty much normal maintenance (and associated problems if proper maintenance has not been done on that particular vehicle).

Yeh hey ? alright just i dont want em to shaft me lol.
BUt alrighty then ill go thru my buddies shop.

#2 Thanks PWPANAS ! thast wicked... that must of been the tricky-est name ive never spelt.. lol.

#3 , seriously i needa know standard lol!:dunno::rolleyes:

Krystie, how did it turn out? Did you get your Supra from TSS (I assume that's the one when you said Skyline shop in Abbotsford).

I bought one from Steve too and no complaint for his quality imports at all. When I get the Supra in the future, I will use Japanese exporter and custom broker. The mark up from importers in general is too much.
