As the title suggests.
I am after a Mk2 (first choice) or Mk3 Supra that will become the basis for a 1JZ-GTE transplant.
Budget for initial purchase is limited, but will pay the right money for the right car, up to $6k for the Mk2, and $8k for the Mk3, ambitious I know, but you gotta try
Cheers

Hi Draven,
Yes, I have had a look at some and it seems that a good shel with a manula will set you back AT LEAST $6k.
For the project that I want to do, this is about $2k too much.
Hasn't anyone got one at a reasonabkle price ? Anyone .....
Cheers

Just landed my half finished project car for a bargain.
Managed to snap up an really neat '84 model in Red with lack interior that has had a 7M-GTE (yeah I know a 1JZ would be better, or even a 2JZ)professionally installed, 3" exhaust, auto (that will soon be fixed), oil cooler etc for only $5k !!!!
Yippeeeeee
Now let the fun and further mods begin !!!!

Thanks, I'll try and get some pics up when I get it home this weekend.
No it is not engineered, hence the bargain price, but the installation is very good. The engine is actually a very late one, apparently a '92 model and had turbo overhauled as well. Engine has reportedly only done about 80,000km (40,000 installed).
It was running standard and had about 10psi boost. Only real drama was that speedo reading was intermittent and that the tacho was not reading correctly. Has not cat installed either 
Sounds nice and goes well I'm happy. At least it doesn't have the blue interior

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know, 72 ft.lbs, yeah, yeah, yeah, and start saving for the MHG......
The priority at the moment will be to get it approved and then start the conversion to manual, and then increase the power. At the moment it is stock as a rock.
I have a great intercooler for it already, and there are some things to tidy up inside, such as carpet etc, but other than that it goes very well at the moment
