  • With the 5th generation Supra coming out, I'm sure there are some that are still hesitant on purchasing one because the 4th generation was so great. Well, here's a video to help potential buyer's on fulfilling that dream. Let me know if you have any questions in the comments section below and also if you'd buy a 5th generation when it comes out.

    another thing to note is the differential in the 6sp tt cars are alot stronger than the tt auto and n/a variants due to a 220mm crown wheel as opposed to a 200mm one, tt 6sp diff code is b03D
    most n/a and auto supras were also sold with a non lsd diff. easiest way to tell is by looking at the diff code for example: A01a the first A or B shows what size it is (A is the smaller 200mm), 01 Shows what ratio it is (01 being 4.083:1), A shows that its a non lsd variant (D at the end means its an lsd). Supra community has great forums and websites for this stuff btw!

    When I think back of the Toyota supra it came way after the the original Z as 1969 was the birth in North America and still running in the year 2018 it’s like camaro vs mustang camaro was gone for a decade before reintroduced in 2010. Awsome detail of the supra you sure know the cars you like. Merry Christmas and happy new year. P.s your GTR is the bomb now that is the ultimate japanese super car monster.

    Things missed, differentiating between the diffs from a to b series, control arms are not a serviceable part once they are done they are done and not a cheap item to replace, headlights in s2 more then a color change the parker was moved to the indicator, s2 dash also changed color. The jdm cars had a more more extensive facelift.
    Should be noted the s2 jdm supra rz 9-97 onwards is far superior to anything the usdm market received.

    As a fellow Supra owner let me correct one small mistake from the video. All years had the front grill air diverters but the series 2 (97-98) had a different front bumper so when you remove the air diverters it can make the bumper way different. Many people remove the air diverters when going to a front mount intercooler to get maximum airflow and people who want the oem look will often get the small holes from the air diverter covered and molded over before painting them over. I think this is what caused some confusion for you. Another important thing for potential buyers is to know the differences between the 2JZ engine variants! Many people simply see "Twin Turbo" but don't realize that this may come from other platforms such as the Aristo. This is very important to be able to know the difference because there are plenty of little differences between a USDM 2JZGTE and a JDM 2JZGTE that could create a nightmare when upgrading parts or creating modifications, especially with the 98+ VVTI engines! I advise all future owners or potential buyers to visit Supraforums! Best place to learn from the OG's!

      @@cheeseontoastbrah Series 1 had the same "cross" shaped air diverters but they are different size because the Series 2 had a larger grill opening. When you remove the air diverters from both grills, you will notice the opening seems much larger on the series 2. The diverters are not interchangeable due to size differences but as far as appearance, they are pretty much the same. Was there anything you were specifically looking to find out about the grills?
