Supra ??
I'm looking at adding a new toy to the collection
I fancy a Toyota Supra Turbo (93 + Shape)
Does anyone know if they do a t-bar (or removable roof) version?
Is there any variation in turbo models regards engine strength and bhp figures?
Can anyone offer any buying advise, common faults and the like?
Cheers
Craig

You'll find all you need to know at www.mkivsupra.net in the FAQ section.
They did make aerotop versions, but only for the Japanese, American and European markets. The UK Supra is hardtop only.

You certainly can.
TT Aerotops are quite rare and normally command a price premium above a hardtop TT (UK cars aside). The NA Aerotops are generally more plentiful and cheaper to buy, but obviously are not as powerful.

There's a few Aerotop 6 speed conversions out there if you've got the time and inclination to do the swop. However, I'd strongly recommend you test drive the auto, it might just surprise you.

A mate has an auto.
They are very supprising and do have very crisp gear changes. Not been in it for a while as he's based in Cyprus with the army.
Still want a 6 speed really though
it's going to be a toss up between aerodeck or a 6 speeder

The SZ is the top-spec NA hardtop model.
NA engine, auto, 5 or 6 speed manual gearbox, a few more options.
The SZ-R Aerotop is the only NA Aerotop model.
NA engine, auto only, a few more options.
(So the SZ has more standard fittings than the SZ-R, but the SZ-R Aerotop has the same
fittings as the SZ)
The 'original' RZ is the entry-level TT model.
TT engine, auto or 6-speed manual, limited range of optional extras.
The RZ-S replaces the RZ as the entry-level TT model.
TT engine, auto or 6-speed manual, limited range of options.
The 'new' RZ is the middle spec TT version.
TT engine, 6 speed manual only, a few more options.
The GZ (inc. Aerotop) is the top-spec TT model.
TT engine, auto only, some options fitted as standard.
(When the GZ stopped production the RZ became the top spec model.)

i had a six speed manual and it was awesome, look on the www.mkivsupra website and get a car off the site, they are all well looked after, or speak to www.whifbitz.com paul can imort one to the spec that you want and hes a top bloke and theres nothing about supras he dosnt know.
bit of advice though get one with a single turbo conversion already done as they can handle some top power, but stick to less than 500bhp as there a bit of a hand full,
mine was running 735bhp and never sopped wheel spinning!!
