ill keep you in mind when it comes time to make a decision.
is it easy to work under the hood or is it as much of a rats nest as the fd's?

It has it's version, about 74 vac lines or something like that. But all in all not too bad (the FD is much worse as far as placement). Once he got it we did the Non-seq. mod then went single shortly after.

**** supra's... heavy lard tards!
Ive seen a 600ish whp fd take out a 1200ish whp supra.
Very close race but still I think the fd winning and being less hp is more impressive.
and then the FD needed its engine rebuilt

I dont think they are terrible cars. On the other hand, the jacked up market kinda turned me off to them. While always a bit pricey, it wasnt hard to find a nice MKIV TT for $16k-$20k. Now the same car sells for $25k-$30k. I just dont like how they feel either, if you are use to a tight FD the big 'ole MKIV takes some getting used to. On the other hand, its tough to find a better highway car without jumping up a price bracket or 10. Also if you are used to paying for after market prices for the FD, the Supra is about identical.
Also the auto tranny in the Supra is far far far superior to the auto in the FD. To the extent that alot of MKIV owners swear by them over the 6-spd. Kinda makes the search easier unless you HAVE to have a manual. l

whats yer budget..
if it was between your running cym and an mkiv, id take your cym.
you got it appraised at 25k right? im sure we could work something out.
on a side note, need a t04r? im having one rebuilt (defective out of the box) but need one now so i bought a new to4z....i know youre trying to go single so If you need a turbo thatll be nice on the fd, let me know.
