Yeah I dont get why the Stoopra has such a intemidating rep. Now dont get me wrong, they are great cars. But the simple fact is most are running like the average modded fbody. And that would mid 11's to mid 12's. BFD boost. N2O is ******* king babaeeeee!!!!!!!!!

OK.

So after some butt hurt posts and BS, we are at what I said on page one.

Did the frigging race happen?

Good lord people, for all this talk about everyones buddies and what they run, not much ever comes of it.

Makes me wish I would have bought the 98' TT I looked at instead of my GTO. Oh well long live the LSX.

And yes, I DO know where it is screwed together. You even seem very cool (and quite knowledgeable) for an "importee".
Maybe you are right for questioning if something was not right with the GTE. But that is also part of the problem here, all of those +++++++++++++s after the BPU on these cars. Has anyone ever made an "official" listing of what each one means (that is totally agreed upon by all)?? Why not just go ahead and list every one of their mods instead (like all other cars do, except for the few "stage" listed turbo cars)? Would it take 3 pages or what?
I hear ya dude. We are on the same page. I apologize if I sounded too defensive. Sometimes words just come out wrong. I wasn't really mad or anything. Cheers.

I THOUGHT Supras were discontinued in 1997, hence the question. So JUST MAYBE you should calm the F down. God forbid someone ask a question or make a mistake on the INTERNET. That never happens.

They were not IMPORTED to the U.S after 1998. They were produced in Japan till 2001.

His car BPU managed an 11.1 @ 118ish mph with a built tranny.

Basically, what I'm saying is that there was something wrong with that TT that raced the Mach1.
Boy I miss that car. Random I came across this post talking about it. Just thought I would clear it up. The 11.19 was after I went single. When I was running the stock twins I only got it down to a 11.43@118, but I could've bracket raced the car because it would do that everytime. That was with a similar setup to the supra being talked about in this post, but I also had a built tranny and a 3400 stall. If the car being talked about in this post is a 6spd car and your average twin car with your average driver, I would say it is good for mid to low 12's. Bottled LS1's and Supras both have good topends so I think this would be a good race, if he knows what he's doing if not you'll beat him. Let us know what happens.

For the record we are talking roll racing from a 50 punch.
The reason I ask is because my budbutdy knows this dude who has a 97 Supra with an intake, full exhaust, BOV, Boost Controller, cam gears, and a tune.
Would I stand a chance all motor or had I better get the bottle filled?
pretty much anyone who has a supra isnt stock, stock for stock its you, but if you are stock, than im sayin the supra will get you, cause i aint ever seen a stock one
