I've only been on CL for a short time and I've only seen some JDM stuff.
I'm thinking there was a Soarer with a 2.5 Twin Turbo set up as in the Toyota Supra. Is this the Supra from back in the day? Just saw this ole gal at the AUDI dealership here in Dallas, Tx.

How did the Soarer perform with this OEM engine in it?
I'm a noob so be gentle....no smart asses please. Thanks!!

I'm just interested in the performance that that old engine offered. I know that car is a SUPRA. When the body style changed in the Supra's last year did they change the engine too? I know that I have a 2JZ-GE in my 98 SC3. Just interested in what the Jap. were doing at that time with the engines.

the reason that i do not know much about supras (old or new)--is because i despise them lol
hopefully some other people will chime in with some better info than I had.

the complaints were that it can be problematic and alot of these older model supras had to have engine rebuilds and swaps due to the 7m.
as i said i have no experiance with it but thats what some people have been posting.
But im sure it has its positives as well if you ask around.

Did I just take a photo of a JAP toyota then? I've never seen one with that badge on the grill. Must have been fun to have a stock TT in a Jap soarer with a 6 speed manual in Japan.
