Hi chaps, I'm Lew, I have owned my '82 Supra for the best part of a year now. What a fantastic machine, this really was quite a find. Totally original, one owner from new, never been messed around with.  Here she is. Thanks go to killbill oddy over on celicasupra.com for directing me to this site. Lew |

Hi Lew, thanks for joining up and posting up your car.
Killbill's my alter ego on Celicasupra.com btw. I didnt want to use my real name so as when i wind up enough Americans on there for them to warrant hiring a private plane to England and shooting my ass!
Love how original and Clean your 82 Ltype is, Never seen one over here and quite like the Narrow Body Look.
Hope you enjoy the site, and are able to Find Some P type wheels from one of the Guys on here. I have a set, but they are my Drift Wheels, and would need a decent looking set of 15" wheels to warrant swapping them.
Would save my buying two different tyre sizes then as i could just use the old toyo's when they're past road legal!

Grand thanks very much for that. I've been told the P-type rims won't fit in my existing arches but I've measured up and I think they should fit nicely, after all most of the JDM Supra's seem to be narrow bodies from what I can tell. Another thing I was going to ask, does anyone know where I can get a decent set of black plug leads for her? I purchased some Motaquip leads off eBay and they were absolutely pants, wrong colour, too short, and the leads came out of their caps at the distributor at 180 degrees rather than 90, made everything look so untidy under there. Sent those back and put my nice crusty originals back on for now!  Loathed to spend the best part of a hundred quid for some Magnecor KV-85s  |

Haha they'll be right jealous of your new supercharger though Neil, seems there's a few very knowledgeable folk on that forum but too many who haven't got a clue

I got some leads from a motor factor and they fit fine. Think they were about £20 or something.
