Have 5k> to spend and want something quick and reliable.

3000GT, TOYOTA SUPRA TURBO (MK2), TOYOTA SUPRA 3.0 NON TURBO (MK3), MR2 TURBO, 200SX OR.......ROVER 620 TI??

any others that might be worth a look in? any suggestions? anyone know the BHP and torque figures for the 3.0 Non turbo Supra?

A mk3 non Turbo Supra put out about 201bhp prior to about 1989.
They then introduced a Catalyst and the power dropped to around 185bhp iirc.

The Turbo introduced in 1989 would be the one to go for, now there isn't much difference in price.
The Turbo produced 234bhp in standard form although I think it can be easily tweaked to 280!!

You will tend to find most of the Non Turbo's are manual and the most Turbo's are auto.

The main differences otherwise are that the Turbo's have leather as standard, and they have a turbo gauge as opposed to a battery/Volts one.

GT4, 1989/1994 models.....220 bhp and 4 w d!

I would personally go for the MR2 Turbo (94+), or the 94+ celica GT4! Both wicked cars, and very fast... very underestimated.

200sx, S13a variant. Cult drift weapon. Highly tuneable. Also highly crashable if you drive as they were intended

Everyone ignores them too which can be useful.

Agreed. I can get you a 1995 imported ST205 with 255bhp and 37K on the clock for 6750.

This week only.....
