Bump for a thread ive been watching for a while now. Where in Cali are you located? How are the valve steam seals, any smoke at startup?

I cant remember off hand, but is the tranny from the V8, or is it a Supra tranny? Any leaks, probs, that I should be aware about?

I'm located in El monte Socal. No smoke on start up. The tranny is the 2jz tranny come with the clip. No leaks, all the seals and gasket was change during the swap.

Can you post pictures of the front bumper so I can see how low the fmic is sitting.

Any dings/dents?

I know you said a clean title, but has it ever been in an accident?

curbage on wheels?

trunk picture, rear seat pix, roof pix (looking for discoloring).

How is the paint? Shiney like new?

FMIC sits about 3" from the ground.

No accidents

Only a small one on the passenger rear wheel. The other 3 wheels are in perfect condition.

Paint is original. Its in pretty fair condition IMO. I don't think it shiney like new if you compare it like that.

I know you mentioned the intercooler was set low, but is it possible to raise it up higher, if I was to choose to do so? I wouldnt want it hanging under the bumper... would look funny lol!

Do they make lips for this car?

If I sent the car to the body shop, & had them clay bar, compound, buff, polish, then wax- the paint would revive itself? Its hard to tell by pictures. I had terrible paint on a vehicle I had several years ago, but in pictures it looked brand new. Sorry to be so picky here...

If you have any more side shots of the car, I would like to see a few more of those as well...

Yeah, you can raise it up without a problem. Just mounted on a higher bracket.

That is how the 95 stock bumper looks like. If you want it to look bigger get a 97+ front bumper and you have a complete 97 conversion. I was about to put that on my car next but I have to sell it as is now.

I know it hard to tell the paint in the pics. The only best way to see it is in person to decide better. It's ok to be picky I don't mind.

PM me your email address and I'll send you all the pics you want.

i vouch for this car and great owner. car runs like a bullet for an auto !!
for a 11-12 year old car, dont expect the paint to be super clean w/o any shows of normal tear and wear. it's a very old car but well taken care of.

good luck buddy !!

Hello I am interested in your car, i realize that the car is new and not in perfect shape. I am looking for 3 main things in a car . That it doesnt shake on the highway, that it has ac , and that it has the 2jz-gte in it. I would like to know what ecm is running on the car and if it pulls to any side. I like the car alot so please email me at acordero@gatorleasing.com or call me at 786 512 7296.
