Fast. Not a big Jap fan, but Supras are alright I guess.

Definitely not a Ricer fan, but that is one smokin' fast Supra.

It leaves like it's on a catapult!

Having said that,
I'll also note that if I too rammed ungodly amounts of boost down the throat of a built 4.6 DOHC my Marauder would move like that. ....
Plus it wouldn't sound like an elephant sneezing!

Yeah, but he has to work on that R/T to get it down to under a full second. :rolleyes: Were those bangs the shifts/gearing or did he have booster rockets in there somewhere?

93-98 Supra's that have been built properly are good for 1100hp easy. I have seen em higher, but they burp a sputter sobad, it would be difficult to drive daily.

Most of the serious guys take off the sequential setup from the factory and go with a very large KKK Turbo on the Inline 6 (I think they are 3 litres or 3.2 from the factory and are pretty bulletproof stock)

It would be a feet to see a Marauder run with one of those at the top of its game considering its at least 1000 lbs difference minimum.

I had a 1989 Turbo Supra in 1992 and it was fast. But, this clown obviously has $240,992 in making his Toyota super fast and super unreliable. If you ask 100 people what they would rather take a 500 mile trip in - a cushy leather Marauder or a knees-to-your-chin Supra with no A/C and a 170dB interior at idle, guess what they would pick. Yep.

At $100,000 + you can make any car run faster than a Marauder.....
But I bet the ProRauder could give him a run for his money!!

Did you hear the Idle...up and down....I love Supra's, but I would much rather have a dailey driver Surpra than that one....

I'm with you guys. I mean look at whats in my garage.

I have driven many a Supra over the years (My grandfather started one of the oldest Toyota - Volvo Dealerships in the country). From 1979-80 on, they did nothing but get better.

You would be hard pressed to find a stock under $50k sports car that drives better and could out perform the 93-98 Supra Turbo, save for the Corvette. +The are reliable as hell. Still for the $$ they carry in the used car market, and the fact that its very hard to find an unmolested one, I would not be a buyer unless the car was pristine, oh and if I had the $$$:eek:
