That Supra still running a stock 5M-GE? My first "real" car was an 85 Supra that had a 3.0 6M swapped in and a custom intake and exhaust setup, that thing was pretty quick for only about 200hp. I actually had all the hardware from a 7M turbo motor to swap on to it but never got around to it. [This message has been edited by Pancake (edited 05-06-2016).]

Yes, still stock. It was given to my son so didn't want him to kill himself, LOL. I haven't decided yet what engine change I'll go with, if any, during the restore.

Funny you mention that, one of my most vivid memories is looking down the long hood of that car at a ditch when I punched it in 2nd going up a hill not realizing it had a lot more power then what I was used to. Thankfully I'd been taught to countersteer by my brother in law for gravel driving and held it . Decades ago, I was 19 and pretty dumb at the time.
The thing that's kept me from getting another one if Toyota couldn't care less about old Supra parts. A lot of the MA61 parts are NLA and finding parts for the much more common MA70s (3rd gen Supras) is hard. They just want you to buy a new car instead *eyeroll*[This message has been edited by Pancake (edited 05-10-2016).]

Yes, I've found the Fiero quite refreshing with the support out there. Never was much for the Supra or the Supercoupe I have for that matter. You really have to dig to find anything for them. The Fiero is a nice change.[This message has been edited by Supracoupe (edited 08-06-2016).]

Currently driving an '01 Jetta TDI. Comfy with all it's amenities, easy to drive, tones of torque and 40+mpg. I'm liking it.

Instead of a Fiero, I brought my 72 Buick Skylark out this year to the Tyler Shipman Memorial Car Show, and to Camp Shipman.

Very Nice. I tried very hard to get a 66 Rivera when I purchased the Fiero, but the guy backed out on me. Always like the Skylarks as well.

I always thought it was weird those existed, how was that 6, where they American engines? I know where one of those cars is in a boneyard.
