How long is the average life span of a 91 Turbo? not the engine just the turbo itself. Looking at buying a 91 Supra Twin turbo, and don't want to get a raw deal and find out the turbos are shot. Also I'm living in Japan and paying 1500.00 for this car from someone who got it at an auction. haven't seen the car yet (so of course haven't paid) Just want to know what to look for when i go to check it out. Thanks, Ken

I'd be scared of buying a supra without knowing the owner first. Usually you like to know if a person knows about the maintenance of the supra and if the took care of it properly. Then check to see if the head gasket has been changed or is it bad. I've heard that the turbl's usually last about 60,000 miles or so. Good luck George
