I saw that car in the SEMA show last year, Looks much nicer in the picture. That will be one mean machine when you are finished. Good luck.

Yeah its an actual race car the TS, so no doubt it looks like *** in real life given the hard time it gets! Did you see the Supra with the 5.0 V12 twin turbo from TS?
Thanks for the kind words.

No I missed that one, there is too many cars to catch over there. I did see that FD RX7 with the LSx conversion, also gold.

We should setup a renn leisters SIMA GTG one year. It's a car guy’s heaven; I'm going this year for 2 days only do to Halloween. But we should get something going for next year. It's always fun to go with guys that know what they are looking at. I can get the tickets but I need a notice 2 months in advance. They are only $15

how do the supra's handle?
Well this is the project and whats done to date!
Parts and work done so far...
Toyota 1UZ alloy 4.0 V8
Supra R154 5 speed box
Tilton hydrolic release bearing
Tilton triple plate sintered clutch
Custom spun flywheel
Custom cast bellhousing
TRD ****
Linkplus G3 ECU
Custom loom
Twin 10" radiator fans
S2000 engine start switch
Custom water pipes
Custom alloy intake
All the maintenance bits like mounts and water pump etc...
Still need to do:
Custom driveshaft
Move shifter
Make gearbox mount
Buy some turbos!
Stage 1 is basically get it going NA. To be completed in a month or so. 250WHP
Stage 2 is throw a turbo (T51R or GT45R if single or twin GT28 or similar) and water injection running 10:1 compression and circa 13psi for around 550-600WHP.
Stage 3 custom CP pistons and rods, head work and cam, more boost (mid 20's and 800+WHP
The goal for the car is to have a 10 second street car that can handle a little circuit fun and be a comfortable GT car.

Well motor is finished and the car is driving. Off for cert after the holidays.
The car made 244WHP on the dyno. And the torque is awesome. Pulls very hard even in 5th gear doing 50kph and 1100rpms. It really leaves the NA 2JZ for dead in all aspects of performance. I guess that extra litre helps!
Next step Greddy T88 turbo
And some video footage.
