    1982 supra l type build thread

    Ok so here is my build. I acquired a 1982 mkII supra with a trashed engine. The engine was pink. The engine has to go.

    Things to do:
    Rip out The old pink engine
    Rebuild a 7mge I got from another buddy's project
    replace the CUT springs with Legitimate lowering springs
    paint the godawful ungly brown clip front clip
    reapulser the interior
    Fix the grand canyon forming in the spare tire compartment
    fix the rust hole in the front drivers side floor board

    strip the interior to find other potential problems.


    Things I need (that I know of) :

    82 parts car (the origional car didn't come with trim)
    86.5 coil and igniter
    paint
    wiring harness adapter/ wire the car
    pieces of sheet metal
    pics to come

    Heads up bro, If the spare tire location is rusting you have a bad seal in the hatch or sunroof. Ask mark of vancouver toyota he will have them and he's a forum member. ALSO SOMEONE GET HIM A TSRM LINK (I would but I don't have it anymore) Good luck with the build.

    -1st car- 1985 P-type, 5sp, Super Silver, 235-60's all around. - "Torrid"
    -2nd car- (Gone)- 1982 p-type, parts car, rod knock, faded black, friend wants to restore as he had a low mile super red back in the day (82 or 83 model)
    -3rd car- (DD) 1981 Datsun 720 King cab, 5sp, Black, 2.2L 4cly, rwd. - "Rusty"
