Not quite......its a na motor when they pick it up as a wreck.....
the actual orange car in the film is a OG turbo aerotop which is all they have in the U.S, from memory they never even got the hardtop, and its a
a original factory turbo with a turbonetics T66 or some form of 66-67mm turbo....
See i have been on Supraforums.com for 12 yrs..lol, when T04R's where king..lol

18-04-11, 21:33 GMT+10#128 To state the obvious, people are picking on Troy and the car as he has had many projects over the years that were going to do things, that mostly never got finished. I guess the side effect of being liberal with your project information on a forum is after a few don't get finished, people roll their eyes and your an easy target to "prove" your newly finished vehicles performance.
Now regardless of your opinion, if this f ucking thing DOESN'T go like a cane toad covered in metho, there is something seriously wrong. 76mm turbo, good manifold, good exhaust, cams, E85 and 20+ psi, we all know its a 600+rwhp car regardless of dyno or whether Troy built it or not, and depending on driver will run 135-140mph+. We went 134mph with one of my staffs supra with 604rwhp on our dyno and 98ron pump fuel, GT42, no cams, and 25psi. Since changing manifolds to ours it makes 698rwhp but we haven't had a chance to get back to the track. This is essentially the same combo with cams and E85
FFS Troy, just go to the track and run a mph and put the issue to rest

It's ok
I know u were being a wanker trying to get a bite but why bother
Yeah daz
They only had a tt aerotop I'm pretty sure in the states
We got the **** versions
Over there the mk4 came wit the big brakes n I think they also came with the b series diffs n them
It's ok Pigsy, if can get the car back 2gether before Thursday then I guess we will c how it goes
I built the majority of this car while I was working 6-7days a week doing 60-70hrs
All at home in the garage
Didn't take it to a work shop n say "build this"
Just help from a couple mates, especially Pigsy
Bout 9months ago I finally got off my arse to get it completed
I changed my mind alot on the whole setup
Finished the fuel system then decided to switch to e85
Was going to run a built auto but then put a 6spd in it
And it goes on
It was just going to b a gt35 auto setup, how things change
I couldn't care less if people bag me or the car
I built it to how I wanted n im very happy with how it turned out
And to b honest, it's 1 of the best sounding supras I've heard!
It's got the power there for a really good driver to run a high 9 with the 6spd, even with the single disc clutch n STD tailshaft
But there's no way I could get it doing that!
I'm actually getting excited to do my next 1 that will b totally different to this!

Would love to get it to the track b4 it goes Kyle
Will hav to check when the next tnt's are
Is that supra the white 1? I think he has put it up for sale on qldsc site
Pigsy, might see if pete has a few cars that want to come out
That's what I meant by it

19-04-11, 10:39 GMT+10#131 Good write up Troy.
As refer to what kyle said its best to let track times speck for themselves, although it didn't workout between us mate you know I'm still willing to help you, (like when you had broken down on the M1) I think its about proving people wrong, its the best revenge to give.
Well done as far mate, lets hope old mate car get it to the track over the next few weeks and race it.

21-04-11, 06:38 GMT+10#133 Suprastore is a joke
Apparently pretty dodgy
T66 wouldn't make much more than 700hp

21-04-11, 06:53 GMT+10#134 That's the car from the movie isn't it? Pretty impressive mod list. I'd love to own it but **** 150g is a bit excessive.
