Returning tomorrow...

Andre, Any dyno results yet?

Thank you for making me love 1st gens now. I hated them and though they were ugly as sin until i saw this one!

Not because of the supra swap but because of the car overall. Rotary or otherwise, the style is boss.

It's perfect. PERFECT. I love this car!

Had some break up issues. It wasn`t the speed limiter as I had thought, but, all of the coils had cracks in them. So I purchased 6 from the dealer... so we`ll see what happends thereafter!

Hoping to run 18 psi on low - boost (pump gas) and 28 on hi - boost (E85).

Keep you posted.

You're welcome. That car is MAGAZINE STATUS. I'm sure you could get a couple of pages.... Not just in the readers rides section. Maybe something to think about.

Don`t waste your time and money on a 2jzgte... overrated in my opinion.

Swap a 3sgte in it… better corner balancing

high power (big turbo) 3sgtes are terrible on the street. No torque!

This car looks amazing. I agree though, a gutless 3S probably wouldn't be as much fun.
