Default WTT: 1989 Supra Targa Turbo Project for SC300 Turbo 5spd

I have a 1989 Supra Targa Turbo project that I am looking to get out of and move into an SC300.

The supra has a mildly built motor in it with low compression but a brand new race motor (not assembled but all there) ready to go in.

Many many mods and parts will be included with sale. All you will need to get the supra running is the ability to assemble an engine and a t4 turbo. I was going to put a pt76 on it but I am not in the mood for a project. I want to get something I can drive.

I would be willing to put cash towards the sale for the right car.

Just checking interest now.

Default FS/T: NY 2 MK3 Toyota Supra Turbo/Targa Cars

1989 Toyota Supra
Targa
5spd
Turbo car.
115k

Minimal rust...2 dime size on drive door and some bubbling under the rear hatch main support.

Car will need paint no matter what as the clear coat is faded and there are some minor dings here and there but very solid car.

Has a mildly built motor that has low compression

motor built at d&f performance
ross pistons bored .020 over
shot peened stress relieved rods
new crank bearings
new rod bearings
Toga high volume oil pump
jdm block with oil squirters
fresh head
3 angle valve job
ngk blue spark plug wires
chrome spark plus galley cover
greddy manifold
HKS wastegate
hks vpc
550 vpc chip
4:30 lsd rear diff
newer subframe
pte 680cc injectors
act 5600 clutch
all custom 3" IC pipes
obx Intercooler
generic fpr
2002 celica seats
custom 3 inch exhuast
3inch v band flange
apexi turbo dunk muffler - discontinued
new lower rad hose


So I bought a bigger stronger motor

This started out as a 1990 7M-GTE engine with 62K miles. I wanted to build it for high hp and being this new with low miles thought it would be the perfect start. I took it out and brought it to a machine shop where they went thru it top to bottom. It has been crack tested and fully cleaned. The block was bored .40 over and I bought new NR racing pistons and rods to match. The block was honed with a special crosshatch to match the new rings. ARP bolts were purchased for the connecting rods for extra strength. The head was fully disassembled, cleaned, tested for leaks, spec'ed out, all new seals were installed and valves adjusted. The head was also ported. The block was milled along with the head. The main caps were rebuilt and the crank was cleaned and re grund. I was set back over 2 grand in the engine work alone not including the new pistons, rings, rods, APR bolts exc. I am including all the parts with the block and head to assemble it including cams, water pump, crank,distributor,oil pan,valve covers,motor mounts exc.

This motor needs to be assembled and dropped in the car.

Extras:
SX FPR
1000CC Injectors
Custom Fuel Rail
Baller hotness 17" JDM wheels
AEM Standalone
Custom Hatch subwoofer enclosure.

What you will need to make it run:

A t4 turbo
Pistons and Rods as the ones that came with the motor are knock off brand.
Assemble engine
BOV


I have a megaton of pics but here are a few:












I am looking to get around 7k/Trades for SC300 5spd for it with everything included.

Standalone is 1100 used
Rims are 1200 used

I have a megaton of pics but here are a few:











Since the 89 does not currently run I am throwing in my perfect running 1987 Turbo Targa car with a 5 angle valve job head, arp bolts, and metal HG. This car runs exceptionally well and has compression from 149-156. The body is shot but it runs and shifts great. Rear end has a whine in it but I got the care solely for the drivetrain. Has a clean Canadian title.





So total package will be both of the cars, Tial BOV, Precision 750hp FMIC, Unassembled "race" motor. Greddy Turbo manifold with t4 spacer. Optima Red Top battery.

Also willing to consider trades. Especially for a very clean sc300 5spd. Thanks
