Howdy. I used NewEra too... Excellent, EXCEPT.... check the specs of the car against the real thing when you receive it. My advert said UK spec brakes, and I only realised a year later that they were j-spec. By that time the ad was gone and too late to query.

Check out my garage I have about six pics
Unusual 'Technocraft' tag plate you have there. I've never seen a shiny one like that before on a TRD Supra. They're usually a brushed alloy finish.

 

Are you sure its a pukka TRD fitted kit? Any supporting paperwork coming over with it?

Yeah I have all paper work to validate autenticity , I have photo of the Docs in Garage too

 

At moment I am trying to fing History behind Toyota Technocraft built TRD3000GT

 

This is all I found

 

In 1998, Toyota Racing Development [2] offered an official kit body conversion and tuning program for MR2 owners to transform their existing SW20 MR2 into a widebody TRD2000GT kit replica car. This was to pay homage to the wins by their TRD2000GTs in the GT-C Japanese racing series, the TRD2000GT racing series cars were based on the SW20 floorpan. Toyota also did the same with their Supra Twin Turbo model, offering a conversion service to transform these cars into a TRD3000GT[3].

 

In order to ensure exclusivity, a high price tag was charged and total of just 35 factory car conversions were completed by Toyota Technocraft Ltd.

I have seen Three cars from Miguel of Newera imports with Specs sent here to Ireland (ADD Performance)for customers, all to spec but we did find more goodies on the Supra which was a really nice surprise

 

  • Supra VVTI JZA80 Grade 4
  • Skyline R34 GTR Grade 4.5, smelt like new car
  • Silva Spec R Grade 4.5, I could not believe this car was not just rolled off te factory Floor amazing

yes the black one we had had same badge as yours but its not the genuine one..just a trd kitted.

 

the white TRD we brought in last year was the real deal..TRD FROM THE FACTORY..

 

 

am sure the blue one was the same as my black one and your black one...

 

the real TRD CARS are very expensive.

Just took a look at the white Supra and mine has same spec with all TRD accessaries interior, exterior and Engine. But are all Supras not converted cars like the MR2 TRD2000GT?

 

Toyota Technocraft Website:

"In order to ensure exclusivity, a high price tag was charged and total of just 35 factory car conversions were completed by Toyota Technocraft Ltd. "

 

 

Would be great if you can dig out any interior,engine bay pics, Ill get some from Miguel to compare.

 

Does white Supra have UK Hood not TRD?? and out of curiousity what price did she go for because mine is 1993 as well

this was a left hand drive model was bought by a japanese guy from an american dealer.

 

 

i will ask owner for pics,,, you should have extras on your car like nets in car etc etc..

 

a fair price would be about 11500 to 13500k for your 93 model.
