  1. I guess I'll take a pair of radiator brackets as well, since they're already circled in this photo:
  2. Let me know if it's an option. Shipping would be to 70599 Stuttgart. Thanks.
  3. The troubles keep adding up with this JZA86 (or the 8pra, as coined by its original owner). I've decided to convert it back to a full fledged Supra. Figured I'd ask before biting any bullets. Does anyone have the front-side components of a chassis available? Upper/lower core supports, bonnet release latches, etc? Keep in mind I'm in Germany, so I'd need them posted.
  4. Same boat. What are you working with?

    I thought the same thing. I even told my colleagues that I would bring tools to the port to remove it prior to the journey home. When I saw it in person, I changed my mind. One of their initial quips: does it drive ok, or did you fly it home?

    It says 8pra, which was their moniker for this jza86: http://news.livedoor.com/article/detail/9810495/

    Yup, I've mentally prepared myself for the feedback. I'm ok with the conversion, or at least the idea behind it. I'm not a fan of the Aimgain bumper and I need to do something about the front wheel arches and bonnet. Here are a couple of prior threads on the car: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?303548-Supra-with-gt86-front http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?310839-Supra-with-GT86-front-end-for-sale-in-Japan This is accurate. I don't have a proper workspace at the moment so I haven't taken her apart to assess the situation. I will say the battery was originally held in place with tape and the condensor is pretty much free floating in the bay. If it's too much trouble to fix, I'll be converting the front-end back to stock. As it stands, I'd like to leave it as is and focus my attention on an NA-T setup.
  8. Just that, Back to Black. I bought the Mother's variety (which sounds wrong): https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mothers-46112-Naturally-Plastic-Restorer/dp/B00RWR78E0 Bit of a markup in price over here. It's $5.99 stateside. Edit. It seems it goes by a different name as well. Here's what I ordered: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GZLMEN4

    Here is a picture from the zoll office. edit: swapped to IMG tags to save everyone a click.
  10. I just picked up my new Supra on Monday. It's my second. I quite regret selling the TT6 a few years back, but I had to move back across the pond and couldn't bring it with me. I'm back in the old world (again) and bought a Supra (again). Although this time there was quite an uptick in price, so I settled for an NA. It's an SZ-R (V161), fresh off the boat.
  11. Thanks for sharing that. I just ordered a bottle of back to black for myself.
  12. If shipping to Germany is possible, I'll take a set.
  13. There's always this polarizing option:
