such low miles on that makes a great candidate for NA-T. First thing u need to do is sit down and do some searching in what you are looking for. Maintenance is a great place to start...new timing belt (usually due at 70k), water pump and front seal. Maybe throw a thicker head gasket on there while you're at it. Next work on the suspension and brakes. Plenty of setups to choose from out there. Also throw on some nice rims. Then do some research on NA-T setups. Ask yourself: how much power do u want? Do want a street machine or a power monster? Will you need to upgrade the tranny? New clutch is a must.
You have so much money, now put aside some time and RESEARCH. Use the search function here, on ClubNA-T.com, Supraforums.com, etc. Also look around in your area. Talk with guys that have turbo setups and get info from them. Talk to shops, what they recommend and what routes to go. Your biggest ally here is information. Gather as much as you can, then execute. Be patient with your decisions and let things come to you. You have all winter to search around. Get your act in gear and good luck!!
....oh and for all that advice, that will be $5000

Get your self a set of supra TT wheels some supra TT coilovers and a complete NA-T turbo kit with a midsized turbo and your set. I don't see the point in putting more into the wheels and suspention than the car is worth.
and is that silver spruce?

I think NA-T and a R154 with a good clutch.
NA-T:
Turbo kit, Fuel upgrades (pumps, injectors),exhaust, cams, Piggy back or full ems, rods, pistons, hg, and all the other things you need to make it work.
R154:
MKIII to keep cost down and rebuild it with some MC parts.
That alone should be a bit less then 10k with smart shopping and if you are doing the work yourself. If you don't want/can't do the work it will cost you more but a lot can be done with the 10k.
A lot of the maintenance can be done when going N/A and would be the smart thing to do. It's just your call on that one.
I wouldn't worry too much about looks when you can get a great stock looking car to avoid the cops. Wheels can help and hurt you... many people over look the extra weight or cheap out on the tires and get about the same traction as stock. Being that you also got the 5 speed an longer geared differential would help you stay in boost longer and make it a highway beast too. Remember with most of this work you are thinking of doing you might want to consider that you will also have some down time on the car. If you have any questions or help gathering some parts just PM and I'll see what I can help you with.
