LOL, is the transmission allready done?
I would love to see some kill vids when it is done. Must be one hell of a highway car.

Crazy gorgeous music. Nothing beats turbo.

By the way, how much power can a a 2JZ handle on stock internals?

The tranny is done, and it should take about a week to get to my shop. The problem is the intake manifold. It still has to be done and it takes a week also.

One of the guys at SupraForums dynoed stock GTE at 900's. Then again, I would expect it to last about 2 runs on track before it blows up at that power levels.

I don't think the Supra in the vid died- I think he just let off. Every time I see a Supra video, I want one more!

"We went three times, he left out the second run (was ugly ) on the last run, I had run out of methanol and the failsafes kicked in."
