Default Re: 1988 supra build suggestions?

Ok.
1. I am not putting a LS1 in my supra. I decided a long time ago that I am keeping it in the family. so no more of that mess.

2. I don't want 850 to the wheels just to say I have 850 to the wheels. some people just set goals and try their best to achieve their goals. yes it is a lot. I understand that. yes I know this will be expensive. I don't expect it to be done for at least 7-10 years with everything I want to do in total.

3. I have owned more cars than just my supra and my daily Miata. nonetheless all have not been that fast though I admit.

4. I don't know if I mentioned it earlier but the fastest car I have driven was my friends STI making about 473. very very enjoyable yes. but I would like to build for more. I probably will take it to the track every now and then just to see how it runs. I live very close to MIR (well MDIR now) raceway.

Gen_Crunchytoes, I do like your idea of building the bottom end and head to hold the power and starting off with less and working my way up. probably a good call.
