msupra Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 (edited) Your getting way ahead of yourself dude... that's what most kids do when they join forums looking for advice. First things first, buy a Twin Turbo 6-speed with low mileage and in good condition. Since you're in Canada you'll be looking at about $16,000 - $19,000 considering it's a 1996. This is also considering if you get it from a broker and after taxes, dealers will charge you this much for some beat up POS. After you get the car then you can start planning on building the car up. Just read around this forum and other supra forums and just read and learn. p.s If your in Canada make sure the car needs to be at least 15 years old from the Production date.

Guest inviziblex Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 im not getting ahead of my self hehe but i am buying the car from japan with no mods just normal engine then i will buy new 3.4l 2jz engine and car will only go for about 6-7 grand in japan and import fees about 3-4 grand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attero Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I think you better research your stuff first mate. There is no 3.4L 2JZ. I don't mean to scare you off... but if you have limited driving experience, which I can only assume you have - you are worth building up the experience first and make sure you know a thing or two about the car aswell. IMO, 17/18 is simply too young and inexperienced for a car with this power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest inviziblex Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 i dont have any experiance in this stuff but i am trying to learn and i figure why spend money on another car when i am gonna end up buying a supra anyways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I think you better research your stuff first mate. There is no 3.4L 2JZ. So you want a stroker kit straight away? Crazy. Get to know the car first.

I bought mine with my own moeny at 17 (1993 5spd NA) so I can relate. you have no idea how fast a stock TT 6-spd it. 280hp with 300+ lbs of torque is. I've driven R35, Lamborghini's, etc around the age of 17 and so on so this says a lot. If you even do a fuckin do a single turbo that's an automatic beast right away! what part of Canada are you from? and what will you be using a 3.4l 800hp + supra for exactly ?

supra_aero Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 A standard TT will be more than fast enough to impress you and your friends. Then if you must, BPU it to get it very very fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attero Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 So you want a stroker kit straight away? Crazy. Get to know the car first. Dnk My point was that there was no standard JZ engine that exceeds 3 litres. I know about the stroker kit. I believe JamieP is planning or is installing one.

Rob_Mitchell Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I wish my parents would have bought me a car when i was 17 what am i doing wrong?? must be adopted, wish my parents bought me a supra with 30k parts list for it too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attero Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 i dont have any experiance in this stuff but i am trying to learn and i figure why spend money on another car when i am gonna end up buying a supra anyways Because of experience. You are building up to the car you want so you don't kill yourself. It's worthit. Trust me. Your life is worth more than a Supra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest inviziblex Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 i wont take any offence i am here to learn about it and hear your guys opinion but i was talking with my friend and he was saying get a 3.0 2jz with twin turbo and a stroker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, a stroker kit isn't nessecary for 95% of the poeple here. The standard 3.0L is more than capable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trinitom Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 i think you better get an N/A 1st to gain some experience with this cars, and in my opinion even an N/A for a person with not much experience could be a possible portable gun.

I've been on car forums since I was 14, and to be 100% honest with you, young guys that know nothing or little about cars come on forums making threds saying they want to do this and that, but 3/4 years later they'll be gone and it never happended. You said last page a supra for 7k. Now how exactly will you get one for that much if it's a twin turbo? please don't tell me automatic. If your getting a supra, just buy a 6 speed twin turbo and go from there if you have the money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
