It's definitly not getting sold now Selling my other supra instead once it's painted I'm putting to much $$ into the car over the next month or 2 to sell it Would easily be 10k + It's definitly hitting the track! Most of these changes I'm doing are so it can cop a flogging at the track It's being built to run atleast a 9sec pass @ 150mph+ on the 6spd

With the na bottomend I'll be limited but with the built 3lt I'll throw everything at it I'll run it with both tho With the na bottomend I want 10s @140+ With the built 3lt it should run 9s@150+ thru the manual on the m&h cheater dot slicks Have to learn how to launch it properly and get my shifting quicker tho The smc should help with anti lag/launch control
