Laugh at your own risk. Those aren't cars to put down. With the right work they're huge problems in a race. I get his might look to be in bad shape, but I would try riding in it before you agree.

I made that mistake in high school a few years back. The guy I raced had a crap box, dents in the side and ect, but he had serious work under the hood. Might be the case here so play it safe.

A single turbo is an upgrade to the stock twin turbo setup. Id give it to the Supra. You sneeze on a 2JZ you just gave it 100hp. Theyre ridiculous engines.

All i see is a 50 / 50 , 50 of you agree on the tayota, the rest trust in the 1LE / ZL1....

I am not a racer , but just down talking to the camaro name constantly just starts grinding in the nerves.. Thats my only issue, i mean you see the Rustang vs Camaro Vs Challanger threads all the time...

My girlfriends brother has a Nissan 240 with rb25det swap (2.5L skyline engine) straight from japan with a 60 trim turbo and after riding in it I'm seriously considering a cam to keep up...just saying its stupid fast for a straight six with a big turbo only

I will agree that they are pretty ugly looking cars. However, they can be pretty dang fast. There are a number of cool videos on YouTube displaying some powerful supras.

A shop here in houston SeriousHP Built a nice 1600HP Supra, and it looked good, that i give props, but when some high school kid maybe college comes talking constant smack about camaros, with a raggedy supra i mean sheesh . I am not a racer But meh maybe one of these days i decide to take him to the track.

Hell ya, take him on his bet. Theres only one true way to find out an outcome. I think it would awesome if you won. I just know "for the most part" Supras are nothing to f-with. Theres only one way to shut someone up, accept the challenge!

If he'd go to the track,...show him up. And when you do, just quietly walk away and smirk back at him.

A stock ss will lose to a 430 hp single turbo supra from a roll. That was through a 61mm turbo. 2jzs make power easily haha.
