If you have already put money in the supra why waist it. I would stay with it.

wow all i have to say is i bought my 7 and within months have had engine problems, so its been a very bad first experience, rotorys are unreliable, yes they are unique but dont work well if you plan on driving it alot yet still wanna have good power, if you want that but still want a 7 do what im doing and put an ls2 in it, hell of a lot of power, way better reliability, and **** it just looks good in the engine compartment, supras kick *** tho by the way id stick with the supra if you drive it every day those little 6 bangers put out a punch, throw a 2jz in that and a good single turbo kit with the fuel system and managment to back it and you should be good for over 600 hp, thats just my 2 cents,
