Hey i just wanted a few pointers in what to look for when buying a turbo supra. I have a chance at a 1990 supra, but i want to go look at it with atleast some knowledge of what to look out for on the car. Any help would be appreciated.

Head GAsket!!!. They suck from factory because there not torqued good. If you get one and it doesnt have a newer headgasket then I suggest you get one done. Theres alot more info on Supramania.com. Enjoy MK3's are fun cars.

Check for all of that stuff and also check to make sure that some idiot isn't going to try and get too much for the car just because it's a supra. I've seen some ridiculous asking prices on supras. There was one up the street from R/T at a little used car place and they were asking over $6k for a stock, NA, auto, 86.5.
