Just let me know when you want to see the needle hit the pin with me sometime... I'll even let you take the pic next time, as I had some trouble with the focus on that run.;)


PS: That run was back in '96 or so, IIRC... so I need a current pic anyway.:biglaugh:

BTDT in '98 IIRC, next to a Saleen 289 Mustang on I75S just outside of Detroit. We were on the way back from the Toronto meet.

110 in my stock '94 toyota pickup with the 22-re motor... scary as heck in that thing

~115-120 in my stock '87 turbo (before teh HG blew)

~125 in my '93 Lexus SC400, she still had plenty to give, I just ran out of road. This car feels every bit as good as the supra at that speed, maybe a little better.

I havent had the privilage of having a supra with a working spedo or remembering what RPM I was at, but i feel I did 110 in a poorly tuned N/A....HOWEVER I have done 140 (according to spedo) in my 1995 SC400 with intake, exhaust, and a little N2o... :) That was fun. It was really stable. I guess because its freakin 3,800 pounds
This was all in TN on the mountains and hilly freakin interstates....NOT safe...but fun.

I hit 120 (according to GPS my speedo cable is broke) with my targa off it was very very scary. Still has the stock 1987 suspension.(replacing as soon as all the oil and boost leaks are fixed) but I wasnt about to let that D@mn camaro SS pass me... then I noticed the temp gauge creep a little close to the holy cow im way to hot to taste this chicken, Bold H...

but the fastest in any car is 153 in my 2003 Focus ZX3 SVT EAP (3 door SVT with European Appearance Package)(which i need to sell to afford more parts for the supra) before that it was 137 (GPS Verified) on the way to New Orleans for St Patties Day!!!

Thanks for saving me the trouble and the tickets! Now I know what the maxout is for my new DD.

the best i could do with the stock 7M was 124. it gets to 100 fairly quick, but it takes an eternity to reach 120+ LOL

0 mph. In my 90
"... But officer, how could I be speeding? According to my car I wasn't going anywhere!"


Personally, between 120 and 125 in a stock Mazda 3. I have yet to run my supra above about 95.

The motor is STILL sitting on the stand. All I need is motor mounts.
