bought my supra 3 years ago, since then, i've had a couple of minor things like gaskets and shit, blew two turbos, 2.5g's worth of bhg, as it took the head with it, blew the first turbo then, and damaged numerous other things. on my third gear box at the moment, which i'm selling, and upgrading motor and trans. so yeah, not cheep...

but we gotta love them, don't we?
