Why go away from the 2jzgte. i don't like the idea of a v-8. i just love the way the mkiv looks and it will never be the same.

agreed. but just the sound of a supra w/ a v8 from the factory gives me a feeling in my pants and chills down my body...brrrrrrrrrr! and if you dont like the v8, you can always swap in the 2jz, oh ya.

i just thought of something. with a v8 there probably wont be much room in the engine bay. i mean you look under the hood of a mk3 or mk4 and everything is crammed in there, so im assuming the mk5 (ewww that gives me chills) would be the same. im sure that people would still find ways to bolt on turbos and other vroom-vroomers, heh

my sentiments exactly..........not feeling the new Supra looks and engine choices at all. The almighty inline 6 twin turbo was a force to reckon with.

i agree with previous responces, it looks like toyota has went for luxurie, and just the fact that they completly changed the body style i mean look at the mustang u brng back that boxed front end and rear end and those straight lines from the early modles and they sell out they are everywhere, if toyota could just stick with that body style in som aspects then it sell out! and the fact that they are throin a v8 in there, come on toyota that wat a supra is is a I-6 and multiple turbos, keeps us light with to much fuuckin tork and hp to be touched, i took out like 6 out of 8 5.0's i raced, a supercharged denali, and countless other cars with just my I-6 n/a and mods out the ass, i dont need a V-8, i love my 6 till i die! lol
