Take this Toyota Supra to a cruise night or weekend show and you’re guaranteed to be the only one there; guaranteed not to have the only Supra but the only right-hand-drive Japanese market model that is equipped with exclusive goodies such as the 1G-GTE twin turbo engine, optional digital dash and the Toyota Electronic Modulated Suspension. MotoeXotica Classic Cars is pleased to present this 1990 Twin Turbo Supra GT. Please note this car is street legal for use in the United States and this example was made in July 1990.
Finished in Ruby Black (code 206), its paint and trim are in overall great condition, with some minor blemishes visible on the driver’s side door edge, at the rear spoiler and on both rocker panels ahead of the rear wheels. The glass, which includes an electric rear window defroster and rear wiper, is in great shape, clear and crack-free. The car’s lights, including its pair of pop-up headlamps are haze-free and look great.
This Supra rolls on Michelin Primacy HP radials, size 225/50R16 at all four corners. The tires and wheels are in great overall condition. All models came with double wishbone suspension front and rear.
The car’s bodywork is straight and solid, the engine bay is extremely tidy, the battery looks new, the cargo area looks very good overall but has a few minor blemishes visible on a closer look and the bumpers are in great condition. The cargo area has a full-sized spare tire.
Under the hood is the Japanese market only 2.0L twin-turbocharged straight six-cylinder engine (code 1G-GTE). The new A70 Supra engine was the flagship engine of Toyota’s arsenal. The 24-valve DOHC 1G-GTE added two CT-12 turbochargers to the versatile motor. There were 3 generations of this engine both air-to-air and air-to-water intercoolers were used, pushing output from 185 to 210 hp (138 to 157 kW) at 6200 rpm and 173 to 203 lb·ft (234 to 275 Nm) at 3800 rpm using the air-to-air over the air-to-water. This was the most powerful engine of the whole G family.. The turbo is buttoned to a four-speed automatic transmission (code A340E). Driver convenience features include air-conditioning, power steering, power four-wheel disc brakes, power windows, power front seats, cruise control and Toyota Electronic Modulated Suspension.
Inside, the car has a gray cloth interior (code FG12). The power front buckets and small rear bench are in excellent shape, while the matching carpet and the headliner are in similar condition. The dashboard pad shows a blemish. One of the unique features of the Japanese model is the optional factory digital instrument panel, nicknamed “Tokyo by night” by some European engineers at that time. The three-spoke steering wheel is in great order. The inner door panels and center console are in very satisfactory condition, while the mirror glass and shift lever look good. Rounding out the interior is a factory AM/FM stereo with cassette deck.
In May 1986, Toyota was ready to release its next version of the Supra. The bonds between the Celica and the Supra were cut; they were now two completely different models. The Celica changed to front-wheel drive, utilizing the Toyota “T” platform associated with the Toyota Corona, while the Supra kept its rear-wheel-drive platform. The engine was updated to a more powerful 3.0L 200-horsepower inline six-cylinder. Although only available in naturally aspirated trim in 1986 1/2, a turbocharged version of the engine was introduced in the 1987 model year.
The third-generation Supra represented a great deal of new technology. In 1986, options available for the Supra included three-channel anti-lock brakes and Toyota Electronic Modulated Suspension (TEMS), which gave the driver two settings to affect the damper rates; a third was automatically activated at wide-open throttle, hard braking and high-speed maneuvering. The Acoustic Control Induction System (ACIS), a method of controlling air compression pulses inside the intake piping to increase power, was also a part of the engine’s technological arsenal.

About Toyota
Toyota, a name that has become synonymous with reliability and sensibility in the world of automobiles. Let's take a leisurely stroll through the history of this remarkable Japanese marque.Our story begins in the late 1930s when a modest textile machinery company, Toyota Industries, decided to dip its toes into the world of automobiles. It was a humble beginning, but little did they know that they were about to embark on a journey that would change the automotive landscape forever.
Fast forward to 1957, and we have the introduction of the Toyota Crown, a car that signaled Toyota's ambitions to compete on the global stage. It was sensible, well-built, and it set the tone for what Toyota would become known for - reliability.
But if we're talking about Toyota's foray into the world of high-performance sports cars, we can't ignore the Toyota 2000GT. Introduced in 1967, it was a thing of beauty. Sleek, low-slung, and powered by a silky-smooth inline-six engine. It was Japan's answer to the European sports car establishment, and it put Toyota on the map as a builder of more than just sensible family cars.
Then came the Toyota Celica in the 1970s, a sporty compact coupe that captured the hearts of many. It was affordable, fun to drive, and it helped establish Toyota's reputation for building cars that were both practical and enjoyable.
But if we're talking about Japanese sports cars that made a statement, the Toyota Supra deserves a special mention. First introduced in 1978, it became a legend in its own right. With its powerful inline-six engines and rear-wheel drive, it was a force to be reckoned with on both the street and the track. The Supra is a car that enthusiasts still drool over, even today.
And then, there's the Land Cruiser. It's not just an off-roader; it's an off-roader that can do anything a Land Rover used to do, only better. Introduced in the 1950s, it quickly gained a reputation for being virtually indestructible. Whether it's crossing deserts, jungles, or frozen tundras, the Land Cruiser can handle it with ease.
But perhaps Toyota's most significant achievement is its commitment to reliability and sensibility. They didn't just build cars; they built cars that people could depend on day in and day out. It's no surprise that you see Toyota's on the streets of every corner of the world, from Tokyo to Timbuktu.
So, there you have it, the history of Toyota, a company that started humbly but grew to become a global giant in the automotive industry. They've given us reliable, sensible cars, but they've also shown that they can build high-performance legends and off-roaders that conquer the toughest terrain. Toyota is a brand that proves you can have your sensible cake and eat it with a sprinkle of excitement on top.
