mkiii, ... Options

[CBawlla]

I just traded my hachi in for a 1987 mkiii Supra. I was wondering if any one in the 6gc community has one? It's a project car so these are the things wrong with it off the top of my head.

87 Turbo targa 5 speed
Cracked drivers side mirror
busted right fog lamp
Leaking exhaust manifold
Leak in P/S hardlines
Right head light no work
Drivers side power lock no work
Engine Temp and Speedo guages no work
Horn no work
Popping the hood is a bitch and requires two people

It's the 7mgte motor running the ct-26 turbo. The leak in the exhaust manifold is robbing this car of some major HP. For the two days I've had it, it can boost up to 5psi easily. It's running a N1 Turbo 3" straight pipe exhaust. It also has TEMS, adjustable from Normal to Sport.

Any input from fellow markIII owners or celica owners that know a thing or two about this car would be appreciated. I havent found any active support forums in the U.S. such as the 6gc community for this car. I'll probably post pics up later on today.

good car.

a lot of people tend to hate that car for some reason, but that was back when i was looking to get one.

now the prices have gone up so much since one of those stupid magazines included it in one of the best tuner cars under $10k

good thing you got the targa, i love that option. i really wanted a removable top car(not convertable) but i would only sacrifice that feature for AWD
