I can't 'really' afford this car (going to look for a TIG welder and plasma cutter next weekend), but my God I want this car right now!

Mk1!!!

Ok I wouldn't say it's an insult, as the LFA is a work of art in my opinion, granted since it is was the new supra was suppose to be, but it's not, so I'm still holding out that maybe Toyota will suprise us with another supra model, when in reality it probably won't happen for a long time

I saw a Supra Tuesday night that's supposed to be 1000 hp. IDK it was the word going around. Beautiful blue paint job and low to the ground with lip kits. It cruised the parking lot with a soft high pitched whine and a low rumble throaty exhaust, but it must have had a bad bearing because the engine sounded like sheet metal scraping concrete, or could that be the pop-off valve?

Pop off valve? You mean blow off valve? And I hope the blow off valve didnt sound like metal scrapping. If he was real low it might be his exhaust hitting

Thanks, blow off valve. I thought it was coming from the engine, but I wonder if it was the exhaust? The sound was on the high pitch side and to me it was more mechanical than actual sheet metal scraping concrete.

@BoostJunkie how much have you spent on your Supra, then how much on all of those beautiful parts? I'm just trying to get an idea of how much money I should save up to mod the FRS where it needs to be modded.
