A FR-S is not in the same class as a Supra decide what class of car you want and then you will know what to get. I say have both they both do different things well, that’s what I am doing.
Other than some dumb stuff people sometimes do to them Supra are very reliable and they hold their value very well. The people who have never owned a supra should do some more research before giving bad advice IMHO.
Building a SC300 up to stock Supra TT capabilities is not that hard. Building a SC330 to compete with an APU Supra cost just as much if not more than building a APU Supra and you don’t get the good resale that a Supra TT has so in the long run it cost a lot more. This has been gone over MANY MANY MANY times on supraforms.

Both the SC and IS have the same 2JZ-GE. And you will have trouble making 450 or so with NA-T without getting a GTE short block.
