I have not, but I have dealt with the oil performance of numerous 2JZ motors I’ve had to rebuild for people because they were not up to the task of delivering oil to the main bearings. How about the three S54 turbo motors I’ve rebuilt which all had the same issue of cylinder warping (egg...
Same here....I don’t have a MKIV but have been researching the R35 GTR heavily now for the past two years. I had been in the market for a MKIV Supra for quite some time, but never really found clean examples. For ~$50-60k I wanted near mint MKIV’s but that’s just not possible nowadays. So, I...
Oh, the G wagon is built there? Did not know that.
Guff, say the rumors are true about a 335hp inline six, auto, etc....do you plan on purchasing a MKV?
I'm surprised no one has mentioned anything about about the QA/QC at Magne Steyr, where the MKV Supra will be built. Does anyone know what the workmanship and quality of assembly is like at that plant?
Guff, i especially like the part about the MKV Supra will share the same “3.5L inline six twin turbo from the M3?” Lmao! Never knew BMW made a 3.5L inline six TT motor. Yep, he sure is something!
I’m still trying to stay positive! Still very happy to see a Toyota halo car. I think the MKV Supra looks fantastic! However, just like the GT-R, I am not very concerned with the aesthetics of a performance car. That’s what Toyota and Honda are trying to do....”make it look good, and...
Great clip! I think we can all agree, Nissan still holds the title for being the most “Performance Driven” auto maker of the bunch...and that’s not coming from a “Nissan fanboy” that’s coming from a auto-enthusiast. This is where Toyota (of all the Japanese brands) fails. I love Toyota very...
Notice the trend in greatness with Toyota cars? What did they (2000GT, Supra, LFA) all have in common? Yamaha! Get Yamaha back in the formula and I promise you the MKV Supra will succeed! If Toyota relies heavily on BMW’s hardware alone, it’s gonna be a tough pill to swallow.
I always look back at this picture and think, "the LFA was in fact the modern rendition of the Supra." The same top engineers who developed all their previous halo cars joined together to build perfection. I wish this was the Supra, and that V10 was a modernized bullet proof TT straight six...
The main reasons I'm cramming a 2JZ in a 300ZX engine bay. I truly don't believe Toyota has realized the audience or market for this car. I feel like they are catering to the ricer boys out there....no one cares about Rocket Bunny Supra's and 30ft high rear spoilers. We care about reliable...
