Default heres a question

since the motor in the sc is the 2jz why not just put a turbo on it and swap out the ticking time bomb tranny for the supra 6speed one. or what about keeping the same motor in the car and change out the head to the turbo supra head. also im planning on building one of theses cars soon. couple questions is there anything i need to worry about the internals? what turbos, turbo kits do u recommend. what standalone systems are recommended? and the rear end what should i do since its an open rear end? and are there any chips u guys recommend since im changing to the turbo set up i kno i hav to get a different ecu, so is there a piggy back chip for the supra ecu? or a whole differnet ecu?

sir you suck at life

tlherring=FAIL

sorry for being an aas. its just funny that you ask a question that can be answered with the first FAQ thread you pull up in the search window. thats why supra forums dont accept any more members at this time. and when you join you cant post anywhere but in the newb section. supra forums doesnt allow search for new members. luckly for you we do. use it to its full potential.

i dont think i posted here for the first 4 month. all i did was search. other then your girlfriend, and occasionally your right hand , its your best friend.

Wait...I've got a novel idea! Since the Soarer in Japan had a 1JZ in it, why not just swap that into the SC? LOL, this is an EPIC failure.

This was about 5 threads down from yours.

Try www.intellexual.net as well. Read the first 5 pages of threads in the Performance section and you should have your answer to everything you just asked.

You don't seem to be listening to me. As I said, read the first 5 pages in the Performance section and you will have all of this answered. Or else just go to www.clubna-t.com and read there.

Either way you need to start reading and stop asking questions that have been answered HUNDREDS of times...
