Actually the supra is NOT going to be comming out now. what toyota has said before is they dont plan on bringing the supra back but instead come out with a new sports car. ive heard that it wil be a hybrid and ive heard others say its a v8. but what is true is the supra isnt comming back sad as it is and i was waiting for its rebirth.

We've decided that the AEM wasn't needed because we're not using all the extra bells and whistles. however here's what we decided to go with.

Not to thread jack or anything but this supra is not a 4 cylinder. I have a DVD with this exact footage on it. It is the Top Secret supra which sports none other than the 2JZ-GTE engine...which is a 6 cylinder. Whoever posted it up for some strange reason put 4 cylinder, but i assure you it's not!

Back on topic...

GOD, i can't wait to see the end results of this and some dynos

luv the swap idea; nothing wrong with having a "one off" car ( in fact that unique-ness is pretty cool when you roll into a parking lot or show ). And if it weighs more, or gets worse gas mileage, or..... so what.
You know, when we stuffed a 351 v8 into a Pinto, we never heard anyone saying "that's heavier then the 4", or "you'll get worse gas mileage".....
In fact, once they caught up to us, a thumbs up said it all.

nice job so far
