1988 Toyota Supra Turbo restomod Classic up for sale.
I bought this 3 years ago and put in a lot of elbow grease to get it into this shape. Tons of money and time invested into this garage queen which is occasionally driven on nice dry days. Work personally done to restore this car to current condition.

  • New Tires 245/45s and 275/40s

  • Restored and revived Interior - Leather, Seats, Dash are all original. Touched up and polished nicely. Steering wheel, dash and front seats are in excellent condition for age with no tears. Center console was refinished with a carbon fiber inlay near shifter for cool look.
  • Cruise Control, Power Windows, Power Door Locks, Power Mirrors, Power Antenna, Flip up lights - all work!
  • Roof liner looks great - no tears or rips Targa Top removes and reattaches no issues (however tends to leak in heavy rain)
Driving:
  • Original miles are super low for 31 years old car... 5,600 miles per year! Stood around in a field for 10+ years too.
  • Get a ton of thumbs up literally every time I'm out with this car - some younger kids ask "what car is that?!" Guys my age know this from our younger days and always wanted one! Well now I built it and love it!!! Engine runs strong and pulls hard. It looks tuned like crazy but the car is more OEM style and mostly stock with a solid 7M-GTE, making about 250-280 with stock internals, regular turbo, intake and exhaust mods only. Waste gate has been tightened for 12 psi (instead of 8 psi factory) so it gets up and goes for a classic.
  • Transmission is all stock and still strong 4 speed auto. Had it checked out by a transmission shop when I rebuilt the engine and they said it shifts great and works perfectly as designed. So nothing to worry there.
  • Coilovers are a bit on the stiff side, but ride height is adjustable. Handling is tight and there is hardly any lean in turns. Huge improvement over stock.
  • Brake calipers are stock but stop great. I refreshed everything I could easily and make old stuff look new again. Wheels and tires have hardly 2,000 miles since I did the restoration. Brand new tires withmaybe 2,000 miles on them. Excellent dry and wet grip.
  • In short - I love driving this car and even looking at it sitting in my garage. I have a full 450 HP upgraded 57 trim CT26 turbo, 550 cc injectors, Lexus V8 AFM and FMIC chrome hard-piping kit ready install but didn't yet, because I like it as-is. However I think I miss the fun of building the car and may want to do another restomod.
