My best friend has an 88 supra with the 1jz motor, stock twin turbos. On race gas he dyno'd 372 hp and 420 ft. lbs of torque to the wheels :)

My car is completely stock, except for the UUC race clutch/light weight flywheel.

During these runs, he was on regular pump gas.

50 mph roll-110mph (both in 2nd gear) we punch it, he pulls a little bit, shift, and he keeps pulling. puts about 1 car length in between our cars.

50 mph roll-110mph (both in 3rd gear) we punch it, and i inch away from him putting his front end just behind my driver door



he does not have much turbo lag because of his small turbos but i believe if we would have kept going to higher speeds, he would have definately caught up and possibly pulled on me. regardless fun runs, and keeping it safe :devillook

i thought the pre 93 supras were single turbos? Maybe I'm wrong though. Both nice cars...

You are correct, the US ones were. In Japan though, some has the 1jz.......which is twin turbo. And this guy swapped one in.

Nice run. Both cars are clean.

Interesting that japan had the twins while we had the single before the 93... There is a black pre 93 supra turbo around my area, really clean with rims and some mods.I'm lucky enough to see it once a year. That thing is beautiful. I'd take any year supra in a heartbeat.

We have a comedian on our hands!! Not all of us have a car with a milion HP Brad!! My mechanics is a really nice daily driver, total sleeper. He also has an RX7 that runs low 10 at almost 4000 ft above sea level. Also a daily driver! All bulit by him!

the supra is indeed faster than my car, we are usually pretty close but overall he has more power and less weight. though he was on pump gas at the time of our races.
