Yes thats right... i just bought my 1st supra. It is a blue 7mgte MA70 
and all i can say is...i LOVE it!
Its pretty stock at the moment, the only mods are 2.5 inch exhaust (soon to be 3" or more) a blitz bov, blitz turbo timer and an autometer boost guage. Its running 10psi and is in awesome nick.
I'll have pics up of it soon

Congrats! Welcome to Club7M! Leave your headgaskets at the door as you enter. 
So what mods are planned for it? Manual or auto?
And how much did you pick it up for?

dont worry allan, no stupid business in this baby. I worked my ass off to be able to get her b4 xhristmas and now i got her shes my pride n joy. im gonna be spending 50 bucks a week on car washes lol hahahaha ( i live down a dirt road so rear end gets filthy).
its gonna take ne awhile to get used to the heavy arsed car, its soooo different to drive (well thats obvious lol) but its so smooth to drive.
I should be along to more crusies etc now, just gotta fix the suspension and wheels as the stockers have a small traction problem

yeah ryley tell me bout it, been wanting one for ages and finally
I dun liuke the gen 2 supras, to celicaish for me 
But im so happy with my find, it needs a new window seal for the windscreen and just behind the passenger door, a new rubber part there. Toyota want 90 bucks for one :S Other than that i couldnt fault it n it was a pretty good price for the other supras i have seen
My mate has a manual targa 87 model, n its n/a n he payed 9 for his so im over the moon with the condition of this one
I still cant take the smile off myt face cos its exactly what i was after... now it just needs to go faster

well i picked up an 87-88 MK3 supra (7mgte) for $2500, a little front damage, but after another $1000 she is perfect again. Oh it's got 145,000k's on the clock and has had 2 prevoius engines (7mge, 7mgteu) so the current 7mgte that's in it now wouldn't have done many k's.
do i win a prize for getting the best deal?
