600rwhp is A LOT, close to 700 at the crank. I really, really dont think that would be too fun to drive if it is your daily driver. Different mods will make it more 'drivable' than others. definitely important if you drive this thing to work or something.

no offense, but if your getting speeding tickets your probably doing something wrong. if you must, get a radar detector. but find a local track that you can drive at, you would probably enjoy it.

This is my last post on this thread. Sorry to the OP that I am off topic. I can Phil can fill you in much better than I do.

It's 180km for sure because it's a JDM. Actually, that's all it has, unlike the USDM and CDM models.

Phil, I do respect you, lots as a matter of fact. You try to help and give advice as much possible as you can. That's a perfect Mod. However, what I disagree with 1993suprawr is posting up to get advice on how to modify his car for street racing.

Since street racing is illegal, I don't think any forum should accept that (street racing).

1993suprawr, I do respect your honesty too by coming here asking for advice to modify your car as daily driver and street racer. Take care of yourself and the others that share the road with you, your Supra and the Viper. Hope you learn and turn out to be "ok".
