Very Impressive Supra!

This is my buddy's supra. The car is 11 years old with over 100,000 miles on it with only a bolt-on turbo kit. He went 186MPH in the standing mile at the Texas Mile event. Just shows how bullet proof the 2JZ motor really is!

Pulling the wipers and taping up the nose is good for a few more mph up there.

funny - I love everything BUT the super ricers sounds they put out




that being said, the rear 3/4 view of a wingless supra could be better than any modern ferrari.


edit: except this one

Cheers.

darn I was hoping to see a cluster reading at that speed

Here is one that I did some work on. 700+hp and it would break traction at 5500rpm even in fourth gear.

It was a precision 67mm turbo. Nothing too big. The Supra is just an amazing machine, especially for its age.
