I absolutely love my Soarer. All parts can be bought from any Toyota dealer, although they do take slightly longer to get here. Reliablity for me hasnt really been a problem, and regrettably I've treated mine like crap. I bought it with 70,000kms, now its got 200,000 with 3 services in that time, and maybe 3 oil changes on top of those ones. Currently it blows a little smoke and stutters when its cold, which is apparently from burnt valve stem seals (or something like that) caused by the engine running too rich for too long. Once its warm it runs perfect.
Havnt really had any other problems, except on 2 occasions the heater wouldnt work. Once the car was left there adn started up again it worked fine. The interior door trims nearly always crack and i've broken one completely.
The V8 engine would be quicker to get parts for as the engine is sold in Australia, but i've always liked the 1jz much better. Insurance is apparently cheaper on the V8 models but im not sure about that. Insurance on the 1jz models is way scary so I havnt been insured since i got the car.
And from what I've seen the 1jz is definitly better to modify.
The Soarer kills the Supra in terms of comfort. I don't see the point of the back seat on a JZA80 Supra. Plus i would never consider sleeping in a Supra for a night but I have slept in my Soarer (Wrecked a key, and it wouldn't turn the ignition. Then none of my keys worked so I slept in the car till I could get it towed!!  )
