Anybody know where to buy nice electric vacuum pump?

Allen Here's a novel idea, let's not throw a bunch of parts at the car hoping it will fix the problem and instead spend a little time diagnosing it first. Life was a little easier when I was just a wrench.

Turbos on the Supras didn't start 'til '87. Look for an '87 to '92 Turbo Supra. Look for a VIN with xxxMA71xxx in it, not MA70. Later generation Supras ('93-'98) probably had them, also, but the cars are rare and junkers even rarer. On the '87 to '92s, the vacuum pump is attached to the cruise control bracket. Make sure you get the harness pigtail also, it's a goofy Toyota thing that I couldn't find at a parts store.

I have a pump if you need one since I'm not using it. I ran the car with it a couple times before adding the reservoir. The pump needs to be mounted close to the booster so they run less. (pm me if you want the pump I'll give you a deal))
