you know whats sad, theres a chick up the road from me thats has just bought a white mkIII for her first car and she is totally treating it like shit, she has managed to already crack the front bumper REALLY badly, she has stuck it back together with some duck tap, and she just throws the car around and i just feel really sorry for it! i hate people who missuse supras. :mad:

yeh i think we have a few that have a 1jz, but im not sure. if i was to convert to another engine do you reckon the mkIII would fit a 1jz, if i didnt have one with it already?
what engine has your car got?

engines

North american model (in mk3s) mostly come with 7M-GTE(3.0L turbo) or the 7M-GE (3.0L N/A) ... the 1G-GTE(2.0l turbo) and 1jz( 2.5 TT) are the motors that were only produced in japan but many people import them ......

well the 1jz is common amongst the soarers in australia, so im sure if you wanted to do a swap for it later you wouldnt have to hard a time finding something, and yeah many people have done the swap before so it def does fit with some mods im sure, kwnate on this site has done it, might want to check out some of his posts.

200hp is pretty good for a stock, have you tuned it to perform better?
how long does your car take get to from 0-100?
what engines in your supra?

I've put $1000's of dollars into this piece. I paid $2500 for it 2 years ago. And I might be ordering coilovers this week.
