Supra motor in Tbird..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFIYaK6XmEo&feature=colike
I gotta respect it for movin' out like that...holy hell did that thing wanna grab a bite of the jersey wall!!!!! I thought he was gonna lose it.
And I wish my local dragway had a brunette like that workin there LOL
As much as I hate to say it, as I'm a bit of a purist when it comes to brand loyalty between motor and car, that was freakin' sweet!
holy hell. Is that engine normally a transverse mounted in the car it's made for? I would like to see the turbo(s) they got under the hood of that thing too.
I believe that's a Supra motor, and Supras are rear wheel drive. :)
Ahh. Well I'm sure it still took some extensive customization. I'm normally against puppies motors but honestly I think its just cause I hate their FWD applications. In this scenario, I say WIN!
I don't see what all the hate is about. It's a pretty neat engine, making a ton of power for it's size.
Kinda reminds me of the opposite which showed up on cragslist a couple years ago... that was a Mazda rx-7 with a 5.0 in it
daaaamn.. i wish my 2.3 could make that much hahah
how in the hell was it only going 109mph should of been in the high 20's
Looks like he light-footed it a tad when he started for the wall.
and it looks like 1/8th mile.. i'd like to see that car run at englishtown with a fully prepped track.. kind of reminds me of the mustang in tokyo drift
That would be the worst 1/8 mile pass for a 1000hp car.lol If that wad the 1/8 he would run a high 14. The mph must be messed up. He's got a shoot so it must go 150mph. I really miss going to the track.
yeah, but the MPH vs ET makes sense that it's 1/8th mile, because he lifted.. if it was 1/4 mile, than he would of ended up around a 14, unless he got back into it
I've seen ppl put a 5.0 HO in a 240 SX before...but never a 2jz in a bird...

A 9.51 in the 1/8 mi may be 72-75mph, it was defiantly a quarter mi run... My Marauder runs 8.3 in the 1/8 @ 85mph, the Bird ran similar times...
Kinda neat, but it sounded like shiznit...
that was 1/4. He's got another video at the same track and you can read the name, Mission Raceway Park in Vancouver. Btw, the other video is a RX-7 that went 8.20 @ 160
certainly doesn't look it.. looks too short
It's the angle. you can really tell in the other videos, and the track info only says they have a 1/4 and a AutoX/MotoX track. Also keep in mind, running a 9 will really make it look short too lol.
from that angle, i'm used to watching cars run 7.50 or less.. so if anything, it would look longer lol
ah well its all relative :D
Gotta be 1/4 mile. Only way you could get up to 110 in 9 seconds. I have seen 9 second cars run 138mph or so in the 1/4 with traction issues. He shot to the wall, let off then probably coasted at the end.
I've seen runs in the 5sec range at 138mph, course that was 1/8 mi...
