Even with one cylinder down you should be able to go faster than that. Have you checked your timing or timing belt?

well the car is not mine yet but they are asking 400 body is in very good con. other than a few surface rust spots. the interior is also very good. he said its just the motor has problems he said he took it to a shop and one cyl. has low compression they said the know the symtoms of a bhg and that was not the prob they said the engine was toast so... not sure cuz i cant look at it but what you guys think?

i understand it might be some work but like you guys think supras are the best and supras are scarce here in akron ohio i almost bought a 91 with a bhg for 500 but this one is much cleaner. i also im machanicly inclined i have built and worked on many cars and it being a supra i feel its worth giving it a try.i mean at worst i may have to get a jdm or used engine to drop in. but that is a worst case sen. if i can fix it and the car is very clean so it would be worth it. any other opinions would be great i need them
