i got a major delima im looking at. recently my supra Twin Turbo was stolen and totaled. It has 45k on the clock, and the engine is strong. it needs a bumper, fender, top, and paintjob. the problem why it is total is cause the underbody was sliced by a sign that the thief ran over. the insurace company is giving me 25k which is what i payed for the car. and im gonna buy the car back from the insurance company for 2k after they total it. i have a few options what i should do.
i can go out and buy a new Supra Twin Turbo and keep the old one a keep it as a project car and fix it as i go along.
i can find a N/A supra, take my engine out of my wrecked one that is running perfect swap it and use the left over money from the insurance total and put a turbo and tranny upgrade. therefore i would have a single turbo supra and a wrecked N/A.
or i can get the total from the car, sell my wrecked on get around 6-10k out of the wrecked one then find a perfect conditon 6sp or something of that nature.
i do have some questions.
are the only diffrences between the N/A and TT the acutal engine and brakes or are there other things that can make that a headace to do a swap. i would have the computer and everything from my old TT. so i would not need anyparts. the old tt has some front suspension problems from the wreck. so would i have to upgrade that stuff to if i did the swap?
Thanks for reading my post i would appriecate any comments.
Thanks
