92 supra, any potential?

My friend Shane has a 92 toyota supra. I told him that it has no potential, because it;s the older suora, and they suck. I said that 93+ years are the good supras. Give me some comments about what you guys think about it. thanks

NA or Turbo?

Either way they have potential. The 7MGE and 7MGTE are rather stout motors and can take their fair share of abuse. Do a little research before you tell somebody their car sucks, there are plenty of MKIII supras that would wax a MKIV.

^ ya, what he said... The older supras have a grip of potential. A stock turbo would wipe many new cars a$$ess all over the street. Now stop being so ignorant and do some research. Maybe that way you won't have to come on here and ask everyone else if your bashing of another automobile was valid.

1) Locate your copy of The Fast & The Furious.
2) Throw it away.

The only dept. where the 93+ Supras have a lot more potential is looks.

Either way its a sportscar and was sold as one. It has a lot more potential than economy cars, thats for sure.

those 89-92 turbo models put down 232bhp/254tq. damn good power for an 89 imo. http://www.supercars.net/cars/1989@$Toyota@$Supra%20Turbox.html

the n/a models prob put out 150hp or in the mid 100's i would say. either way, the 92 supra are pretty decent cars cause they can still own the honda class on the road today. not sure if aftermarket companies are supporting these older supras, but i seen few crazy ones off ebaymotors and prob 2 in magazines.
