Franswa Posted June 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 Yeah had to Blew the headgasket on my supra today lost a ton of oil and threw a rod threw the head.:( Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted June 28, 2009 Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 Crikey! It might be less expensive, and defintely easier, to get a used import Supra engine rather than rebuilding the blown engine. Quote Link to comment
Franswa Posted June 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 Thats the idea sell the datsun so i can buy a new JDM race prepped 6MGE Engine. Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted June 28, 2009 Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 Traitor! I know the Supra is a fine car...even more than fine it is a great car. But the Roadster is rare and classic :-) Quote Link to comment

mazdat Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 you see Supra's more often than a Datsun Roadster, i'd say keep the Roadster:) Quote Link to comment
FoxyRoadster Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 That won't make it rare or classy but at least it isn't a sbc. Nah, but who needs classy if it hauls ass. :P Myself I'm supercharing my R16 and going to leave it carbed.. Lotta work ahead of me lol Quote Link to comment
