    Lotus-born suspension on the MKIII Supra?

    same with the ecotec, and that's the highest option level, they have lower power models...but it's still going to be wicked fast... "At 307 pounds fully dressed, the L61 is the lightest engine GM has produced in its displacement class, and one of the most compact four-cylinders in the world. "

    brakes or rotors?

    Lotus-born suspension on the MKIII Supra?

    no, the ecotec is an AMAZING motor and strong as hell for what it is... with 2 fairly simple mods it will take anything you want to throw at it... one is the uniseat, which is a one piece valve seat fro both exhaust valves in each cylinder that is easy to replace and takes a ton more...

    Who has a Stout CF hood?

    buff it, and make sure you wax it with a good UV protection wax... depends a whole lot on the resin they sues, as they are UV stabilized resins now that won't fade...

    Built W58??

    it may a LITTLE as the gear ratios are different (slightly), not to mention the components are far heavier... why you'd want an R154 in an N/A is beyond me as the W58 shifts nicer...
