Default need to win my friend over

man cant get him off the Supra. But how much money would it set someone back to get an F body up to a reliable 700 FLYWHEEL HORSEPOWER he wants to know.....Now i know with our cars when i say reliable well need stuff like a new rear, bottom end, and internals that would break on our car.....So 600 REAR WHEEL it comes out to be....and reliable. i told him around $15000 when you figure the pumps, heads, rear, bottom end, etc., etc., etc.,....so how much is it....because i know there are people on here that have done it

well, it would take a turbo kit, (6000) rear end, forged motor, clutch, fuel system, and a lot more. The turbo is the only reliable imho way to get lots of power, a supercharger for 700 hp on our motors, would be hard to daily drive, imho, could be done, but not with what i have seen recently.

Supras are bad@$$ cars, and you can daily drive one that runs 9's not much of a problem, large single turbo, and a lot of boost, tuning they will fly... here is the page i was reading before i put this post, lol <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
