good kill. I wonder what kind of boost he was running. Those MKIII are quick but by no means comparable to the MKIV

A MKIII with a 1JZ with your basic performance Upgrades should have power levels close to, and comparable to LS1 cars. Stock LS1's that is... but everyone and their mother has a Lid and exhaust of some sort...

The 89ish Supra had like 230hp, right around there. My friend has the exact kind you're talking about, but with a 5 speed. Fun cars, but have nothing on (newer) fbodys
