I bought this supra 4 months ago. After trying out a few german machines, which ended in disaster everytime, so i gave up on german cars, bought a 2004 BMW 745i electronics failed and then engine failed, bought a Merc 2005 CLK55 AMG electronics failed and then moved onto a 2006 Audi A8 W12 6.0 first cat exploded, then oil hose exploded and final straw the head went with 2 bent cams. Thats the second audi off mines thats happenen to 2008 Audi S3 head went too. Oh well back on to my supra. Its was a stock red 1993 tt gz with a factory diff. Very good condition but the paint work need abit off attention.

Just noticed the side exit exhaust! A rare edition there, sure there's only 2 other people on here with them fitted

 

But mines is even rarer with twin tail pipes that took a full week off trial and error to get them just right 😀

 

looks cracking, i love the side exits, do you still have the cut out in the rear of the trial for the old can?

 

Its filled up and smoothed out buddy
