I just wanna know what is the the best Upgrades to put in my supra
to gain a power between 300-400KW. I just wanna get some Idea and Option before i go to a mechanic so they wont rip me off. hehe..

My Upgrade at the moment are:
18" TE37 works rims
Blitz SpecNur exhaust
Strut Bars [ Front and Back ]
Pivot Turbo Time
Blitz Boost Gage
Trust LS spec Intercooler
Tein CoilOver [ Bloody Stiff ]
Now I wanna start in the Engine so Hope you PRO guys can help me. Thanks! P.S. i live in Western Australia. Just incase somebody is also from here. : Thanks again! Rok On!

1) As you know (I hope ), the rims, strut bars, turbo timer and coilovers won't help with your horsepower increases.
2) At the 300kw level, the upgraded exhaust won't make any difference either. At the 400kw level, you may notice a small difference.
3) Don't get a rear strut bar - it's a waste of $, given the construction of the jza80 chassis
4) What you're missing from your list is: downpipe, GReddy BCC (to eliminate fuel cut), and a boost controller (to raise the boost).

Note: My recommendations are all based on US-spec. Japanese-spec is pretty similar, but not a 100% match. For example, I believe an HKS FCD will work just fine on a Japanese-spec Mkiv (instead of the GReddy BCC), but I'm not totally sure about that. However, the downpipe and boost controller (or boost increase modification) are musts.
