    Thank you so much for this video it helps me a lot! I am in the middle of purchasing a TT Supra from JDM Expo for 2018. Now I have more questions for them to answer to make me feel more comfortable about importing it.

    with the tail lights I believe you can still buy the parts seperate but not the full assembly

      Richard Pierre the assembly is discontinued but tail light fixtures and harness can still be purchased separately.

    Thanks Ryan for your videos, always learning something from you, much appreciated, keep up the excellent work, and good luck with the twins , hope all is well 🙏.
    Talk about expensive parts. I’ve owned a JDM 1998 NA Supra for 2.5 years now, it’s pretty much stock except for a nice HKS Drager exhaust and a full Veilside body kit. , It’s no beast but such a fun daily driver car ♥️. I’m looking to change the front bumper back to OEM and have recently sourced a brand new factory painted (Quick Silver, like yours ?) Toyota front bumper in Japan. To get it shipped to Australia, I’m looking at a tad over $3000 AUD. Yep expensive plastic

    Also Just a heads up on the TT brakes, the TRUE OEM calipers will have a stamp on them that says sumitomo or something like that. if it doesn't have that stamp, then it isn't a true OEM caliper and not worth the $800-$900 that they get sold for.

    Tyvm for the video.
    This makes me hessitate hehe.
    Heck i even did that back when the supra was not all that expensive but its been a long dream of mine to own one.
    I'm looking at a n/a atm, seems pretty stock. It doesn't have a single thing i really want in a Supra doe so that makes it even harder haha.
    Do you perhaps know how the Japanese market is? My sister lives over there so i might go car shopping there instead when corona has calmed down. Perhaps i could even get the Supra of my dreams then.

  • @thatsubieguy2233
    @thatsubieguy2233 6 років тому

    What do you think about turbocharging a 2JZ-GE with some arp head studs and a new head gasket? Would it be enough or should I do some headwork? What about the stock intake manifold, would it be usable or should I just buy a new better one.
    I've read that the stock GE bottom end itself can handle at least 700whp and my goal would be, let's say 500whp. If you could answer to some of my guestions that would help me alot. The thing is that I'd have to get an na supra because of the cost. Cheapest MKIV na is near 6K€ here while the cheapest turbo MKIV is +19K€..

    • @alexvillalobos7137
      @alexvillalobos7137 6 років тому

      ThatSubieGuy when it comes to boosting a ge you end up wasting the same as if you would have swapped in a gte and the get is more reliable just go all out of you really want boost

    • @dylankachmann6211
      @dylankachmann6211 6 років тому

      You need wither forged internals or a gte man trust me the ge's areweak they fan handle 400 hp probably. Youd have to do a lot. Gte manifolds wont fit youll have to drill a oil feed in your block, also no oil squirters, also higher compression which makes it less reliable for boost. Youll need a nee ecu as well, and pbviously a turbo. Youll need a n/a to turbo kit if you want the manifold and everything to fit. And on top of that ypull need a nee teanny probably at 500hp dude... my w58 blew at 500hp really fast, i just seappes in a r154 tho. Seriously though you arent gonna be happy if you boost a ge unless you spend hella mkney. If its so cheap just buy a gte man. Save way more money that way.

    @adamschisler6143 6 років тому

    Hey man was your car an original 6sp. TT? Or was it a N/A that you converted?.. it's a beautiful car and she looks like a absolute blast to drive.. well done!!

    • @adamschisler6143
      @adamschisler6143 6 років тому

      PURE Function is that the way you would go about it if you had to do it all over again? Saving the money on a factory tt/6sp by going with a N/A and then converting it to what you want? Was yours an automatic of 5sp? I know the 2jzgte isn't hard to find but aren't the factory 6sp transmission very difficult to come by? Sorry for all the questions bro, I'm seriously considering getting into the Supra game. If it's not worth it I may get back into another RX7.. thanks for your time man. Be safe

      His is 5 speed w58, which is risky with a single turbo. W58 grenades at around 400hp.

    There is a car dealership close to me which focusses on importing JDM cars and sells Supra from 12k€ (Non-turbo) to 50k€+ (Twin 6s), is it trustworthy to just buy one from dealership if they focus on JDMs and have good ratings?

    • @richsant1353
      @richsant1353 6 років тому

      That wheel is from a 97-98 supra, but the rav 4 also has a similar wheel. This is NOT the celica wheel, as plenty of supra guys also replace the stock 4 spoke w the 3 spoke from the celicas. Believe it or not but 99-02 corollas, 02+?celicas, and matrix also use the same wheel. The nice ones are the leather ones with red stitching.
