I didn't say you shouldn't run sticks or "big turbos". I just was trying to point out that there is a difference between horsepower to the rr wheels and horsepower to the ground.
The fact is that in the article in the thread the writer mistakenly (or ignorantly as the case may be) claims...
Do you understand putting power to the ground? Apparently not. Spoken like a guy who doesn't have much drag racing experience.
You're so far off the mark and so sure your right I don't even know where to start with you besides which judging by your attitude you wouldn't listen anyway.

I don't own my Supra cause I'm poor (I'm not). I've owned all kinds of sports cars and this is the first car that I really ever said to myself "this ones a keeper". I love these cars and as I said, I've owned enough really nice cars to have a qualified opinion (pardon my lack of modesty)...
Actually, it may have some benefit on a normally aspirated, carbureted motor but on a fuel injected engine...I doubt it, and on a fuel injected turbo motor...no way.
Can't read the graph but I'll take your word for it...that's awesome.
Alot of power with very few mods. It shows what Supras can do without major mechanical changes. :icon_bigg :icon_bigg :icon_bigg
I recommend you go to your local pick ur part and scrounge up a used one. They're cheap and I don't know about where you live but here in Ca. they're pretty easy to find. Normally I wouldn't recommend bone yard parts but hey, it's just an exhaust manifold and:
1. I'd rather have a used one...
So let me get this straight...you don't like the idea of more aftermarket support that would undoubtly happen if mkiii's got more press?
I'm sorry that just doesn't make sense. :nono:
HUH????????????
SEEMS LIKE SOME PEOPLE ARE A LITTLE OVERSENSITIVE.
(I've heard that's what happens when you can't get laid)
Maybe I'm shallow and narrow minded and my pussy hurts but I'd just like to keep the interest alive in these cars (and the aftermarket manufacturers interest as...
Every month I buy a litany of "performance import car magazines" and every month something is suspiciously missing...Supra Mkiii's! W.T.F? There is a ton of Mkiii's still on the road so I don't buy the arguement that "nobody is interested 'cause there aren't enough of them". If that were the...
That bad boy is tooooo sick! I think I almost like it better without the front bumper. It kinda makes you want to lock your doors so they dont get sucked off the car as that monster blows by!
If you get all the gasket material off the mating surfaces of your motor without scratching the alloy head up you should be fine to run a new composite gasket. However, I'd recommend you get the head pressure tested and possibly do a valve job while you have it apart.
It really depends on how...
You're right on the money there....make sure your machinest understands that these motors need to be machined to close tolorences.
Alot of these guys are used to doing american v8's which are set up loose for the most part and tend to want to set up these motors the same way...huge error...
Why not? Has anybody built one? Is there some reason this can't be done?
I can't think of why not. I just haven't seen one yet.
I'm sure someone has done this, it's just two (get it) obvious!
And why not a twin sequential turbo????... with a little turbo (to spool up) and another the...
