well i had a big think   Posted Mon Nov 11, 02   10:47 PM     

after a while of looking i got a car after looking for a while, not fastest but it's goos in my eye's anyway.
Toyota Soaror 2.5 twin turbo for about 8,500 USD, Dark Green, all stock at moment i want to try put some 19inch rims under it, i know that these cars r not very good for racing ( so i've heard ) but im going to try get it to run as fast as possible, i might replace the stock turbo's with new ball bearing ones, or keep as is for now and i also want to change the engine mounts over with some new ones coz they r a problems with alot of the soaror's,after they get about 10 years old but i've been talking with some people that have had soaror's and reading up on them and they say there is never much to fix on them(on the 2.5 twin turbo model) it is very rare to find problems with them, so im just going off other people
and while im doing stuff to it i'll still drive round in my ET Pulsar Turbo, and even tho i have the soaror as i've done with my other 1000 cars, im going to keep the pulsar and try to find more things to put on it and do it up to go faster i don't know how fast it goes at the moment but i don't think i'll have the monoy to find out now that i've got the soaror im going to be spending big bucks on it

Shaweet car,
It's basically a heavier Supra In the US it goes as a Lexas SC 300 or somethin like that. It's pretty popular in Japan, but like I said, the heaviness thwarts would be moders. Good luck though, and show us some picks

yeah we got the lexus's in australia too, just where i got it from they only had 4.0 V8's in stock at the moment so i got the soaror, but if they had a lexus SC300 in stock i would have got that if it was Dark Green.
i might change some of the panels round with lighter ones

Ahahahahaha yeah.....at 17 I doubt that she would have one but never mind....Everyone says it I am sorry for repeating.

Actually I would like to say that apparently that USDM RZ supras go harder than the ones that we have out here......I am talking about stock out of the show room. This is due largely to the fact that the JDM engines and ancilleries are governed to 206Kw where as the USDM ones are open...I believe....Please correct me if I am wrong.

Actually your right. The USDM Supra TT's, (not called RZ's here), do have more beans. Little over 300HP 300 Tourqe. I think the RZ's are a little under 300, like 280???
