Hey Im looking at a supra as my first car. Are there any good kits to change a na to a turbo? Thanks.

what year?

Well I was thinking around 88. Maybe it'd be easier just to buy a car already turboed. I've been seeing some oddly good deals on tt cars like 97's with 50000 miles for 5,000.

any 1993-1998 supra that's worth it is well over 16K...

anything else is probably a scam..

as for 1986-1992's, it's WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY easier to start off with a turbo, than to try to use the turbo engine's parts to turbo the NA..

plus the turbo models arent expensive at all, so just find one of those..

Sounds good, how would insurance be for a sixteen year old kit with a turbo supra? I found a 1998 tt supra with 20000 miles for 4,000 shipped with insurance, so I emailed the guy asking why so freakin cheap, and he said his son had a heart attack in the uk so hes moving there and he doesnt need the car. Seems too good of a price though. I think I'll probably end up with a 91 or 92 turbo.

By the way, I noticed the 240sx in your sig and that's the other car im considering. I'd get the ka24de and add a stage 1 iap turbo kit, but I've always loved the supra cars...

^---ironically, i was looking into MK3 Supras before i got my 240, and im keeping the KA, too...

It's a scam.

Good lord, I should just put that in my sig here.

getting a 92 is hard to fidn in good cond in a reasonable price. they only made like 6000 of em in total so good luck eh. anyway i have a 87 turbo targa and its costing me 230 a month cdn. Im 17, virgin record. Good luck looking for one, get a turbo 89. so much easier to find and ame thing as the 91/92 cept for the white package. that isnt even very hard to do...
