1998 Supra reliability?

[50]

Hello all, thinking about getting a 98 supra w/40k miles. I'm not sure if thats original motor or not. How are these cars in terms of reliability? How about repairs? Thanks

overpriced....

40k miles not price. It's about 9k in price

 

[r6ashih]

thats a non-turbo price

Sounds like a bargain for $9k IMO.

That engine is bulletproof. Over engineered. We will never see anything like it from Japan ever.

Almost forgot..
*obligatory pratical ATOT loser response* What? $9k for an 8 yr old car?! You can get a 2002 civic for that price! yuo teh stooooopat!1!!!!

Very solid & reliable car ... if its the original moter & has never been wrecked I'd jump all over it.

IF you torque the head bolts properly...or did they fix the spec on the later ones?

jagec: the head recall was only for the 7mGTE, mkiv supras came with 2jze...

anywho...reliability depends on maintenence...any manf. can make a damn nice setup, but one idiot can fvck it all up
