yeah you might be right, i faintly remember seeing this before a while ago. Definetely very unique for the 2jz, would be cool to see it catch on a bit more.

^ I've seen that car before in some jap magazine. But on topic, I'd rtather road race a 205whp miata than a 205whp supra any day of the week. Because then I'd have a chance at winning. v6 mustang would nail that ***** in the corners too. Even if you got it cheap, the money put into it is obvious. It's a hellaflush hipster car. I hate hipsters. I'd rather continue to be a white trash pos with a fast pos than a gay hipster with a slow hipster supra.

I like the sound, but I rather see a plenum on the end of those 6 throttle bodies with a turbo feeding it from the other side.
I don't think I would enjoy my car with only 200hp.
