how fast are 1989 mk3 turbos

j3pz · 12-27-2006, 03:21 AM

as the saying goes "if you have to ask how hard it is, then its too hard"

it doesnt sound like you have too much mechanical experience. i would suggest stop worrying about a 1.5jz swap and look at getting some wrench time... thats just my .02 though...

i dont mess with imports im more of an american guy i like mustangs and camaros there is nothing like the rumble or a 454 big block but i was just wondering because dads car is fast as heck on top end faster than my little 4.6 mustang GT convertible

ya my mustang is an automatic 2003 gt convertible and it is slow i hit 137 one time in it i hate automatics but ooh well i didnt have a choice dad got it for me i am only 16. i told him to let me drive his supra for a while and he said i would kill myself in it. ooh well lol it was worth a shot

lol offer a trade

sbm713 · 12-28-2006, 02:49 AM

nah i like the stang just wish it had boost haha. I dont really want a supra well unless its the 1993-1998 with twinturbo's. I am trying to find an LS1 camaro with a 6 speed like i said im not into imports that much they are fun dont get me wrong but i love the sound of a V8. I have thought about getting a supra like dads but they are getting more expensive but if i could get a deal like his i would take it he paid 1500 for his.

If you're not into imports and you like domestics, then what in the hell are you doing on a Supra forum?

sbm713 · 12-28-2006, 04:07 AM

i have a supra sitting in my garage its not mine but it is still there thats why i am here i like imports but i like domestics better thats all but supras are cool i just like v8's better

I still don't see why you're here. Just because a Supra is in your garage, and it's not yours. If you're interested in turboing your mustang, try to find a mustang forum that has some info on that. There'll be guys there that have already done it.

nah dude i dont want to i just came here to ask a question about what they topped out at plus my dad doesnt ever get on a computer so this is a good site to get info on for his car, like when he blew the intercooler sensor or something he spent 600 dollars before they acually found the problem at toyota so im here to make sure he dont get ripped off again.
