what should i do with my 91 supra turbo targa approx 150k- (engine, etc.) , OR ...
hey folks, i've had this supra turbo targa sitting for about 3 years
now with no definitive plans. it would probly be wise to throw in a new
engine if l were going to rebuild but l do not know which direction to go
in at that- thats my main question: should l throw in a stock 7mgte
(standard as in std oem north america) or jspecd 1jzgte or 2jzgte (std mk
iv) the basics of my mk iii supra: (incl. problems) engine - runs, but burns a qt every 300 mi turbo 5 speed - no problems on trans side targa - leak on driver side painted in 99 or 00 - still good but rear bumper needs a touch up shaved door handles meineke exhaust i think thats it. i'm fine with STOCK turbo engines, but obviously the better the mod options on each engine - the more appealing that option is. l say better as there are of course economic aspects. l do not race but of course we all want a faster car - l do not need to spend 15gs to make a 12 sec car.but say if l invested an extra 5gs over stock and can cut a sec off l might take a look into it. by the way i'm just spitting numbers, i've never priced engines before, nor have l ever dyno-ed a car. i'm pretty sure though a stock 7mgte turbo probly does around a 7 sec 0-60 around a 15 sec 1/4 mi. so with that - what should l do? single turbo / twin turbo? can l maybe upgrade turbo on top of a rebuilt? OR if you know someone who maybe done the whole shebang twin turbo, injectors, afm, exhaust... and it seemed like it was worth the cost. any opinions? OOOOORRRR, should l just buy another one already built or finally l see 04 gtos in a reasonable price range $14,000 + thanks
If you post your email address, I will shoot you some
suggestions. I spent almost 22k on my 88 turbo, got it well into the 10
sec range...have quite a few ideas for you.
Or if you want to buy one already built..I could offer you one.
