grahamc Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 silly question, but what about another supra? Get a base NA, strip rebuild, etc or an RX7? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyB Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Jamie have you seen the white E36 (think it was a 4door) thats on pistonheads, all sprayed white with white wheels, white cage and what not, got the german flag on the rear, like an old touring car apparantly?

JamieP Posted April 13, 2008 Author Share Posted April 13, 2008 yea but 325i would be to slow imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyB Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Very true I think me and my mate are looking for a 328ci at the least Theres not really any other cars apart from the obvious that i would think about having as a track car along similar lines to the E36 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jezz Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 DC2 Integra R? Used to track my DC2, kills bigger cars on the bends. Good for 150, weighs as much as me, and if a 6/7 sec 0-60 isnt quick enough, greddy turbo kits for them are much cheapness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bondango Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Jamie, i would seriously think of doing an N/A Supra myself. Plenty of manual N/A's going for easy money, bonus is the amount of aftermarket Parts available eg, suspension and brakes. As for the engine, raise the compression, ported head, big valves and lairy cams, 6 branch exhaust, and off course ITB's. Honestly think a stripped out Sup with a high revving 2jzge on throttle bodies would take some beating Marty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
