Original and Context: An overview of the fourth Supra generation
The model for this miniature is the Toyota Supra RZ (JZA80), the top version of the series that belongs to the fourth generation and was built from 1993 to 2002. Chief engineer Isao Tsuzuki led the project; the predecessor was the Toyota Supra A70 (third generation, 1986–1993). The Toyota Supra RZ (JZA80) was developed as a sports coupe with a front engine and rear-wheel drive and was positioned above the Celica. For a time reference: the car was already on sale in 1993 — the year the Maastricht Treaty came into force and helped form the EU, Intel introduced the first Pentium Pro processor, and the movie “Jurassic Park” dominated the box office. These examples just give you a feel for the car’s era. The Supra’s body used a lot of aluminum parts (hood, Targa roof on some versions), which reduced weight compared to the predecessor. Aerodynamically it had a drag coefficient (cw) around 0.31, competitive for its class. The suspension uses double wishbones all around, which gives precise handling. In the Japanese nomenclature, the RZ marked the most powerful variant with a bi-turbo engine and a 6-speed Getrag manual gearbox.
Technical specs of the real car and tuning relevance
The Toyota Supra RZ (JZA80) houses the 3.0-liter (0.79 US gallons) inline-six 2JZ‑GTE with sequential twin-turbocharging. In Japan the power was officially listed as 206 kW (280 PS; about 276 hp), internationally it’s often quoted up to 239 kW (320 PS; about 316 hp) and roughly 441 Nm (325 lb-ft) of torque. It was commonly paired with the Getrag 6-speed V160 gearbox, with a 4-speed automatic available as an option. A Torsen limited-slip differential, large disc brakes with four-piston calipers up front, and a precise rack-and-pinion steering are other hallmarks. The drivetrain is famously robust, which made the Toyota Supra RZ (JZA80) a tuning legend — lots of people pushed those engines way past stock power. In the photos you can spot components and brands that have cult status: the body kit name Bomex is closely tied to the movie car; Bomex is a Japanese aero maker founded in the late 1980s. The rear wing resembles parts from APR Performance, which is a California (USA) company founded in 1999. Side sponsor stickers include NOS for nitrous systems. For wheels the car commonly used Racing Hart M5, a multi-spoke rim popular in the US tuning scene. All that explains why the Toyota Supra RZ (JZA80) is today one of the most iconic Japanese sports cars.
The miniature in Andy’s collection: scale, material and details
This model in Andy’s collection shows a Toyota Supra RZ (JZA80) as a 1/64-scale miniature. It was made by Time Micro and is a Diecast casting, which gives it a solid feel and fine engraved details. Important for collectors: it’s a limited edition – 1 of 999 pieces worldwide. The presentation is easy to spot: the Supra sits on a white, leather-like textured base with a black plinth; a clear display hood protects the model. There’s a separate figure leaning on the left front wheel, which livens the scene and highlights the car’s size at this scale. The 1/64 model from Time Micro shows the typical bright orange paint with green‑silver graphics along the flanks. The graphics are reminiscent of the “Nuclear‑Gladiator” motif with stylized arrows and technical symbols. Sponsor names like Bomex, Racing Hart, APR and NOS are finely printed on the sides. Up front you get clear headlight lenses, the rear shows the four tail lamps and a large exhaust pipe. The fixed rear wing in a carbon look and the chrome five-spoke wheels echo the real car; the wheel shape is inspired by the Racing Hart M5. The interior is dark with suggested sport seats. The proportions of the front bumper, side skirts and the Supra roofline are cleanly captured. This miniature is a 1/64-scale model by Time Micro, and collectors will like the mix of movie vibes, precise prints and the clear display. The limited status is also noted on the base: 1 of 999 worldwide.
Movie connection and cultural placement
The look shown here is based on the car from The Fast and the Furious (2001). In that movie the orange Toyota Supra RZ (JZA80) appears in several key scenes: after losing another car, a beaten Supra shell is built up; there’s a scene where it duels a Ferrari on the coastal road, and later the famous train-crossing race and getaway happens. The car is driven by Brian O’Conner, played by Paul Walker; his character is an undercover cop in the illegal street-racing world and ends up torn between loyalties. At the end he hands the car over to Dominic Toretto, played by Vin Diesel, who uses it to escape. The film massively boosted the Toyota Supra RZ (JZA80)’s fame worldwide and turned the combo of Bomex aero, APR Performance wing, Racing Hart M5 rims and NOS stickers into an instantly recognizable look. For context: the real car platform dates back to 1993 — the same year the EU was founded, the first Pentium Pro arrived, and big hits like “I’d Do Anything for Love (But I Won’t Do That)” topped the charts. Those references just help place the car historically. The Time Micro miniature translates those visual cues into 1/64 scale, and the display base, clear cover and included figure make a neat little scene for Andy’s collection.
Miniature at 1/64 scale in Andy's collection – orange JZA80 with a film look
This model is part of Modelly member Andy’s collection and represents a car based on the Toyota Supra RZ JZA80. It’s a 1/64-scale model made by Time Micro. The mini is cast in diecast metal, so the body feels solid and you get nice sharp lines. You can see the orange paint, a big rear wing, chrome-looking five-spoke wheels, and the side graphics with a grey/black mechanical motif plus green flames. There’s a small “NOS” decal on the rear bumper, the front has clear headlight inserts and a detailed grille. The little figure next to the car is placed separately and is leaning on the front area. The model sits on a white display base with a metal nameplate and is protected by a clear display case. Important for collectors: this piece is a limited edition—specifically limited to 999 units worldwide. So it’s a clearly defined collectible for display cases. This 1/64-scale model is from Time Micro and captures a lot of the real car’s details in a compact form.
Technical background on the real thing: fourth generation A80 from 1993–2002
The Toyota Supra RZ JZA80 is the fourth-generation Supra. The A80 was made from 1993–2002. Project lead was Isao Tsuzuki, who’d worked on sporty Toyotas before. Designer input included Kunihiro Uchida. The heart of the RZ is the 3.0‑liter inline-six 2JZ‑GTE (3.0 liters (about 0.79 gallons)) with twin sequential turbochargers. In Japan output was listed under the old gentlemen’s agreement as 206 kW (about 276 hp / 280 PS); export versions could put out up to 239 kW (about 321 hp / 320 PS). It was paired either with a 6‑speed Getrag V160 gearbox or a 4‑speed automatic. A Torsen limited‑slip diff, double‑wishbone suspension all around and big brakes were part of the RZ setup. Kerb weight varied by model around 1,490–1,560 kg (3,285–3,439 pounds), and the drag coefficient was about 0.31. The A80 used a steel body with some aluminum parts (like the hood) for weight distribution. Compared to the previous gen, the Toyota Supra RZ JZA80 had a stiffer structure, improved suspension geometry and a crisper steering ratio. To place the launch year 1993 in context: that was the year the Maastricht Treaty came into force and the European Union formed, Bill Clinton became U.S. president, and Nirvana released “In Utero.” Just some era color for when the Toyota Supra RZ JZA80 was developed and introduced.
Film inspiration, tuning parts and wheels – what you can spot
The model’s graphics clearly reference the car from the movie The Fast and the Furious (2001). In several scenes you see an orange Toyota Supra RZ JZA80: from the garage build to the test drive, the coast sprint vs. a Ferrari, and the final street race. The car’s driven by Brian O’Conner (played by Paul Walker); in the finale Dominic Toretto (played by Vin Diesel) briefly takes the wheel after O’Conner gives him the car. The real movie car used a bunch of tuning parts. The big rear wing is typically an APR Performance piece, while the model’s NOS logo refers to NOS – Nitrous Oxide Systems. The movie car ran 19‑inch multi-piece wheels (that’s about 19 inches / roughly 48.3 cm) — the mini shows a very similar five‑spoke look, so collectors will spot the reference. The side vinyl combines a mechanical grey/black motif with green flames, plus small sponsor logos for that race/street look. The orange paint matches the movie appearance and is reproduced cleanly on the model.
How the model is made, visible details and collector notes
The mini nails the typical diecast crisp edges and fine engraved door seams. Wipers, mirrors and the rear wing structure are separately applied, the headlights are clear inserts with visible projector detail. The taillights are color‑separated and there’s a right‑side exhaust tip under the rear bumper. The body has multi‑color tampo printing: orange base, black technical motif on the sides, green flames and small decals like NOS. There’s a “Supra” badge on the trunk. The model sits on a white textured base with a metal plaque showing the car name. The clear display case keeps dust off but is removable, so it’s easy to display in a 1/64 cabinet. The included standing figure leaning on the front fender is a nice diorama touch that doesn’t hide the car. For collectors the run size matters: this edition is limited to 999 pieces worldwide, so each example is clearly identified. It’s a 1/64 diecast that shows the turbo plumbing, aero parts and the original car’s wheel/tyre proportions in miniature. Overall it’s a solid replica of a well‑known street and movie car that holds a definite spot in Andy’s collection.
