TS6M World Championship Edition Differances?

[r6xxer]

Hey guys, I'm pretty new to the forum, I was just wondering if anyone had any info on the differances in the 1987 Comp TS6M "Wold Championship Edition" and a regular Comp TS6M.

We have had this boat since 89' and I dont really see to many older Supras around my area, just wondering if its anything worth being excited about or if its just a label on the boat.

I know a few things were not included on these, such as a rear seat and a stereo system. The boat has a 351W PCM engine. Any info would be greatly appreciated. I'll post some pics when I get a chance aswell.

Thanks,

Edit

Here's a couple pics of my baby.

cant answer your question but great looking boat

Yeah those are some great shots!!! Love it when there's another addtion to the Canadian Supra scene here in the forum....I'm just speculating , but I think you may have answered your own question, Worlds edition back in the '80's might have meant, bare bones....enough room for the driver spotter and zero extra ballast.....The ultimate no wake slalom course boat....
My Conbrio would be a little heavier than your Ts6m ( 3-400 LBS more) and with the wakeplate down the wake is almost non existant, I can't imagine how small it would be without that added weight......These boats came before wakeboarding......
Yours looks awesome!!!!

I love the rainbow colors. I would want to know what differences the boat had also, but who cares. It is special, do not change anything on it.

Well im not to sure myself on differences, I have an 84' Ts6m Comp and really the only thing i noticed was the rear seating not being there, which would be good to add extra ballast if you wanted..All in all the boat is identical and am glad to see another proud owner of a comp!

Love the rainbow and the rear view mirror..... looks great!

Don't plan on changing anything, I love it the way it is. It's actually my dads boat (he bought it in '89) but I have been doing most of the upkeep and usage for the past 4 years or so.

The only thing we changed, was the addition of the stereo, which is nice to have when you're relaxing on the water, otherwise its just been maintainence and such. I replaced all the fuel lines and pump, and gave the carb an overhaul last year, but this year it's in need of a steering system (which was due about 2 years ago) heh.

Anyways thanks for the comments guys!

The standard TS6M vent windows did not open. I lucked up and found some for my 87. They are a nice touch in hot weather. Is your engine the 240HP or the 260HP?

the red and blue trim on the white was only available on the limted edition every thing else you could get on the ts6m

I honestly couldn't tell you if it's the 260HP or 240HP, is there any way to tell?

And yes, those vent windows are definetly great on a hot day, ours came with them :D

Love you boat btw, and I'm very envious of the back seat, ours has to "cushions" that snap to the floor in the back, and thats about all supra provided for rear seating on that, theres also another place for one more "cushion" directly behind the drivers seat.

I do not know how to tell the HP difference. I have an old PCM manual that lists a 240HP and a 285HP.
My PCM sticker on the engine has the numbers worn off.
We finished our 15 month restoration in April this year and have enjoyed the TS6M this summer :)

If it helps any the back seat is not comfortable. Definetly for kids or the 4 legged black child.

Boat looks great Rick! I read the post before I saw the picture with the dog, and immediatly went to a horrible racist conclusion, and laughed my ass off!

Where were those pictures taken? Looks beutiful there! What prop are you running on the boat? What do you get for top speed?

We run a 13/13 or 13/14 (can't quite remember) but the boat tops at 47mph, looking to get 55mph for barefooting, while keeping a good pull out of the water.

[rickr]

Not sure about the prop but I think it is a 13x13. Not sure about top speed (I have a speed boat for that, see avatar), I'll check next week.

We are in the mountains of East Tennessee and use the Supra on the lakes in the Tennessee River Valley.
