Hi,

Just recently purchased a SZ Import Supra non turbo. I had been looking for a Twin Turbo for a few months and no joy but this one was in Great condition and low price. Only imported last month.

Although i was unable to give the car a thourough foot to the floorboards drive i know it is quick. All totally standard parts on it and not chipped.

How quick 0--60 i dont know. So if anyone could let me know this cool.

Also for the Kenwood CD Minidisc i need an expander for the radio. Does anyone have an idea of price and place to get one.

Cheers for the help. Come saturday i will be out picking up the car then some speed on the roads home.

cool, welcome.

Many N/A's come with an in-built egg timer on the dash board

About 6.7 seconds 0-60 for an SZ IIRC.

Welcome to the board (and ignore Terry, he's just jealous :innocent: )

True:(

I am sure Matt Harwood could sort you a band expander. Post the question in the sound system section

Welcome to the SZ club! :thumbs:

There are only 2 rules:

1. No selling it to buy a TT.
2. Definitely no selling it to buy a BMW! :twak:

As for performance, book figures I believe are 0-60 6.6 manual, 6.7 auto. Top speed is way up there, probably around 145 if you are bone stock (will be much higher indicated on the dial). Get a decent exhaust on there stat. Might be worth checking if you have the slightly rarer (and quicker) SZR (check VIN plates against the codes at the NZ mkiv site in the links at top of page). Odds are even the importer wouldn't know (no external differences).

And rule 2 no doubt... but then a BBS web forum would be a bit pointless!

True:D......just a novelty post in the now rarely frequented 'Technical' section.

And as its non tech talk i spose I'd better shut up or we'll be forcibly escorted to the chit chat area:cool:
