Q: How much faster is the Toyota Supra than the Toyota Celica GT-S?
I have a Toyota Celica GT-S and it's very fast, however, I seen a Toyota Supra one day and I know that's the fastest Toyota. Kind of like how the Camaro is the second fastest to the Corvette. Anyway, is there a big difference in the speed of a Supra versus a Celica GT-S? Would a Supra beat a Mustang GT? Let me know these answers please, thanks!

A: I'm sure the Supra TT (Twin Turbo) with 320hp is much faster. But the base model has only 225 I believe so it wouldn't be that fast considering how much heavier it is compared to the Celica.

Q: What is the average life of a toyota supra's engine?
I am looking into a used supra and am wandering what the cut off i should look at pertaining to milage. There plenty of 93's out there w/ around 140,000 miles for about 17,500$

A: It all depends on how it was cared for, and driven, before you got it- Quick & easiest(also least reliable)- take oil fill cap off, look inside, and smell it- everything black/real dark ? smell "burnt" ? go to another one. With decent care, and not TOO much racing it, you should see 220-280K- was one in my area last month @ the hope chest (non-profit org.) for $1500 !! (1996, turbo, 145K, pretty clean-except interior !)

Q: How much would a Toyota Supra sell on ebay?
Its a '98 Supra twin turbo, very clean, 26,000 miles on it, and it's automatic, how much would it sell for? If I also just wanted to sell it, not on ebay, how much?

A: Not sure, but check kelly blue book or edmunds. They wont give you the really worth price, but close. Yea, like the guy above me said. If it was stick, id buy it in a sec.

Q: Does anyone know where i can find a toyota supra 93-97 from a trusted seller?
I want to find a supra from a seller who is trusted and has not raced or beat the car. A car that will last me some time. Have any suggestions?

A: if you're in the so cal area, try focus auto sales in garden grove. last time i checked, there were a few nice looking supras there.

Q: where is the cheapest place to buy a complete engine? can be rebuilt. needs to be for a 91 toyota supra turbo.
I have a 91 toyota supra and it came with a blown engine, but hey, a supra's a supra, especially when its only $500.00. but now I can't find an engine for it for less than $5000. I have a cavalier I could sell for $6000, but I need to buy the engine and another family oriented car, so i'm looking for an engine in the $2000.00 and lower range. if anyone can provide me with a solid lead to an engine in that price range other than watching the auction sites, I might be inclined to offer a reward. by the way, the old engine s in a scrap yard right now

A: $500 isn't bad for a Supra. I've personally owned 5 in my life and am looking for number 6 all the time. The MKIII (86.5-92) was notorious for blowing head gaskets. I would check for that first. The best way to check for BHG is a compression gauge. It's fairly easy. Read up on it at Supraforums.com . Assuming that is what's wrong with your's, I would recommend repairing the engine. Last 7M-GTE I rebuilt cost me a little over $300 in parts and about 2 weeks of my spare time. Assuming it's not...and something like a broken rod or hole in the engine block, then you should be careful buying a used engine. Many of the ones online are JDM pulls, this means they're high mileage and often abused engines pulled from Japanese cars. Since Japan refuses registration to higher mileage vehicles, they're parted out. If you end up needing a new engine, I would recommend trying to find one from a salvage yard (they often undercharge for these things, believe it or not I've bought an engine for $100 once). Or search for a wrecked donor Supra with a good motor. Either way it'll be cheaper than $5000, and with another Supra, you'll have extra parts...and believe me, you'll need them :)

Q: what should I look out for when buying a Toyota Supra?
I have up to £2000 - £4000 to spend on a supra what should I look out for, or is their another similar car i should look at.

A: They're engines suffered from Big end knocks, so test drive, put in second gear at around 35MPH and listen to the overrun, it should be smooth. If you can hear any sort of machine-gunning the engine is on its way out. I'd suggest you consider a Lexus Soarer, they're much cheaper as they are all imports, no exceptions, and you can easily pick up a good 2.5 Twin Turbo for £2,500, or a 4.0 V8 for around £2,200. You can get a half decent one for not much more than £1,200. Parts aren't easy to find, but nor are they on the Supra, but the engines are much more sturdy than the Supras and if your going at less than 50MPH it WILL go round almost any corner you show it (it'd crease the road before it let go).

Q: What type of gas does a Toyota Supra take?regular or premium?
What is the recomended fuel for a 93-98 Supra Turbo?

A: Some folks will say it makes no difference and evidence says it doesn't matter. But what a load of rubbish that is i have read just as much evidence to say use a higher rated fuel,and myself have driven turbo and modded cars for years and years. Using a fuel with a higher octane lets an engine run at a higher compression ratio without having problems with knock. engines that require higher octane usually deliver more power. So the difference in price us a high rated fuel after all those cars where made and designed forJapan which using 100 rated fuel. quoted. Myself notice a big difference is i use a lower rated fuel in a performance engine,my 180sx wouldn't even move without jumping around if i used a lower rated fuel. Higher rated fuel is more for modded engines or sports engines.

Q: What are the frontal areas of the Mazda MX-3 and the Toyota Supra?
I am doing a lot of research and number crunching for my '93 Mazda MX-3 GS Special Edition and want to do some mathematical comparisons with any turbo Toyota Supra that is early 90's or newer. I was able to find the aerodynamic drag coefficients without too much trouble, but, I'm having a hard time finding the frontal areas of them. Bassically, I can drop in a fully built KL-ZE 2.5L V6 from Japan and tune/turbo it to 1000hp+ and, given the proper gearing, I want to find the maximum speed possible based of calm conditions and a flat surface. For that, I need the frontal area...

A: Try "downforce".

Q: where can i purchase a toyota supra trunk decal?
i have a 1985 toyota supra that had some rusting so the previous owner removed he supra decal on the back hatch. does anyone know a site or catalog where i can purchase a new one? p

A: Try a graphics shop that does decals. They can take measurements of the trunk and replicate the original one. Should be cheap because if I recall correctly, the decal is just the outline of the letters. Make sure that they use the outdoor 7 year vinyl (the brands Avery and 3M are good), not the calendered vinyl that will wear out and fade fast. Or you could always try ebay. BTW I LOVE that generation of Supra. Sharp car.

Q: What are the differences between a UK spec Toyota Supra and an import?
I was originally looking at getting a 93 Imported Supra TT, and then on my insurance i curiously selected the uk spec model instead and my insurance went down by £500!!! Why do you think this is? The UK spec's TT's are faster than imports too!!

A: http://www.supras.co.uk/imports/differences.htm link tells you all you need to know about the differences. A little taken from the link. Models In the UK there were 2 models released, a Twin Turbo and an NA (normally aspirated). Both had fairly high specification with leather interiors and cruise control. The UK TT version has a large air intake in the middle of the bonnet and headlamp washers which make it stand out from the NA and import versions. Japan had at least 5 different models released, ranging from standard NA up to full leather TT. The SZ was the NA, the GZ was a TT with leather, cruise, active spoliers, the RZ was a TT with cloth seats, airbags and sometimes and active spolier, and the RZ-S was a TT with electric seats but none of the other toys. These defining lines are blurred when you realise that most of the models can have 'cost' options to increase the specification. Look at each car individually and dont expect any of them to have exactly what is listed below.
