here is the video (http://64.208.21.183/Jim/Video/c4-supra-cobra2.mpeg)


Looks like Xstang gave up around 1/2 way throught the race when it was evident he couldn't catch up.. Notice. the vette DID jump us.. the vette had a good car on me before i hit it and locked.. i ended up a few cars ahead of the vette at the very end.

He's a really nice dude - we ran into each other on the service road of the Tollway one night when I was on my way to the Plano GTG @ Chuck's a few months ago - he followed me up there. Sweet car! I guess he finally got it all running right?

How much power is it making? Is it NA?

He made 399 but it leaned out 14.1 air/fuel. Still trying to get eveyrthing tuned in, the throttle body was sticking so he had to go back to the stock one. He has a new program in it now. So who knows what the power is.

I hope the bottle goes on soon, he has it but not spraying yet:(

**NOTE**
keep in mind the ass whooping wasnt as bad as it seems really..
the vette jumped us and the stang and i reacted. I was just using that to illestrate that the vette and the stang locked;) i start 1.5 cars behind the vette and ended up a few ahead of it..

not to worry.. the cobra is comming back with a venegence. I added my fmic, and the cobra went to an even smaller pully then he had that night, and a catback and is expecting to go from 430 rwhp to 470+ rwhp.. i hope i dont get my ass spanked;)

I can think of a few good reasons....Rear ends, Tires, tranny's , I will race form the line but if I have a choice I would rather go 40 punch seems to tear stuff up alot less....just my opinion.

Actually, I've seen him drive in person out at Ennis. I would just figure that he'd be able to do better than what he did. I'm not bashing, I'd just expect more than that. :)

Damn Jimmy has a Single now ... Does he still have the stock wing on there? I know he had the Blitz on there a long time ago but something happened to it and he put the stock one back on ... man it seems like everyone has now gone Single, when I had the 95 TT everyone mainly had Stock Twins and either regular BPU or BPU++ ...

Dino had a Black Wingless Supra modded by Powerhouse and so was Daniel's 93 Red Supra, you might have seen him around a couple of times, it has the HKS Coilovers, FMIC, Single, pretty cool guy. There was also one guy I met that had a Greet 97-98 Supra like yours but with white Rays Volt rims and some other goodies .. I think he sold it and got a Viper, I'm not to sure.

Hey have you seen the new Road & Track, it mentions that Toyota is working on bringing the Supra back in 2004/2005. Awwww yahhhh ... :eek: :cool:

Hey White_lightning what do you think of the new 350zx?

White_lightning
08-21-2002, 01:06 PM
yeah.. jimmy went single.. stock wing.. i dont know dino or daniel though... the green ca ryou are talking about was a 98, and the owner was ben graff(spelling).
personaly.. i am not thrilled with the new 350z.. NA.. high compression .. baaah.. leave the NA stuff to the domestics.. its going to be competition for a GT mustang at best, and the cobras are going to walk all over it. I think the TT v6 the previous gen had would have been a better idea..

$hit the one I was looking at was the V8 NA but I thought it said that would go for $40-60 ... if its over that I agree I would stick with the MKIV and get a Single ... just hey just think ... New V8 Supra + Single ... MmmmMmMm ... http://www.dfwstangs.net/hosting/LS1s_LikeMyTailights/drool.gif

Did you see that Toyota right above it the red one, that car looks bad aZz too .. but price is going to be around $150,000 ... Im not too crazy on how that new Supra looks in that pic, I think your bodystyle looks way better, hopefully those designers would get their head out of their buttocks and design something that looks more exotic and sporty ...

My friend Randy has his Supra up at CTC now. It's the red 95 with the Bomex front bumper and some other fancy imported body kit. It should be a monster highway car. Bored block, Carillo rods, T04R single, NOS, and all the other sheeyot he had before he started this mess. It had better be quick, he's been waiting on it for 15 months. It was 'fast' enough before, but now there is no tellin'. :eek: However, he's a major tool with more money than sense.

Is Powerhouse turning into Hennessey Motorsports? Hmm....

I saw the car at CTC.. its only been there a few weeks.. it was at PHR for 15 months?? damn!! yeah.. i head about the t04r and a dual stage or a 250 shot or something.. CTC is the ONLY place i will let touch my car..
personaly i would have just done a t88 and made about the same power as the t04R on bottle:)
or a t88 and a 90 shot.. oh well.

I couldn't agree with you more. If you're gonna spend the money, don't mess around.

I was riding with Randy one night on Loop 12. Alongside the Supra pulls a 96 Vette LT4 with, unbeknownst to us at the time, a huge shot of NOS. The Vette pulled his Supra so hard I thought we had blown a front-mount int. tube or maybe a head gasket. That loss convinced him that he needed to go single. I believe the Vette belonged to a customer or an employee of The Horsepower Store.

Anyway, I'm sure he'd love to hook up with you guys and do some of your crazed highway runs. :eek: Us normal people prefer stoplight to stoplight. :D Ah, to each his own. Cya 'round.

Bright Red. It also had the 17x11 (?) ZR1 wheels. Nice car. He was toolin' around with James Crone's '00 pewter Formula Ram-Air, right after James sold it. Later, I heard that the same Formula became The HP Store's drag car.

These highway cars in Dallas make my head spin. Too damn fast my friend, too fast. :)

And damn I'm gettin old. Had the 25th yesterday. I used to run around with Andi when he had the Maxima and had only recently graduated with his Masters degree at 18 yrs old., with Gino DeFarro when he was one of the only single turbo Supra's in D/FW, and Jarred Vamvakidas, who had the black on black hardtop 94 single T. Ever have one of those moments where it's like, 'damn where did the time go?'

I rode over to what is now Fastech with Andi and Jordan to dyno his then-'new' 98 Quicksilver. He was so disappointed to have only 400 rwhp uncorrected. Now look at the kid. Jeez. Jordan had a black 93 BPU+ with the deleted-option spoiler and 18-inch Manaray's. He sold it to a guy named Jerry. Any names ring a bell? Anyway, off to bed.

How long has this place been opened, I dont think they were around when I had my Supra in '00 or atleast I havent heard about them until now, I most of my work done at either Powerhouse .. Jotech messed up my dash after installing the Turbo Timer, PRofec-B, and my BCC so I never went back .. :(

Is that Andy's car on the dyno there?

I thought the last guy that owned that Pewter colored Formula was named Sean that now works at Dallas Mustang? Probably different car Im thinking off ...

Yeah the good 'ol days ... I remember when he first bought his Supra right after I got mine from Richardson Toyota ... I ran into him a couple of months later he was BPU and was pretty happy with where he placed his HKS BOV, that thing sounded awesome .... I raced his friends Black TA and pulled on him with my BPU Supra at the time .. that TA was pretty quick .. I havent seen either of them for a while now. What does Gino drive now days? Those other guys you mentioned sounds familar but man its been a while since I have hung out with the Supra crew. I remeber that TT Viper from Hennessey went out to one of the meets and a couple of 9 & 10sec Supras wanted some but that guy didnt want to race.

DFWsho. yeah.. last time andi dynoed he put down 650 rwhp..
i know jerry.. he comes out to the supra gatherings when his lazy ass leaves the house. the car doesnt have the mana rays anymore, after cracking them for the 102930102th time he couldnt get them ffxed anymore.
I think CTC has been around for about 2 or so years. the head mechanic/ part owner's name is Wayne Pots.. or "Homer" as the DSM guys called him and he is a BAD ass with just about any car he touches.. they have a VW golf that wieghs about 2200lbs and made 400ish rwhp on pump..

after gino totals his PHR supra, i believe he bought another supra and was STOCK for a long time. the wreck shook him up i was told. But i hear he has finaly started modding it:) who knows.. i only met him onces or twice.
ls1likemylike.. whats your name? if you dont want to say here, you can PM me.

yea, that was Sean Burt. Last time i talked to him, he still worked at dallas mustang. HE used to own the pewter formula that is now the HPS WS6.

Also the guy that you are talked about that had the Jade Supra is Ben Gratt. it had stock polished wheels the whole time he had it as for as i know. He sold it and got a Steel gray Viper. I think he got rid of that already and got a Z06.

Wow it sounds like CTC is bad ass ... I know it sucks about Gino wrecking his first one that thing was FAST ... Im sure he'll mod the 2nd it will just be a while like you said ... I met him only once out there in Las Colinas with the other Supra guys back in the day, Do they meet up out there?

they dont meet there any more really.. sad thing is.. by todays standards, Ginos car wasnt that fast..

This thread is a stroll down memory lane! Gino was near tears when he crashed over on 111 st. Ish, the driver of the red 300z Gino was racin', would talk up a storm.
Scary night. Gino hit that curb hard as f*ck while Ish had a wry smile on his face. Uncool.

This was back in the old day before too many of the domestic V8 dudes knew what the hell was venting into the atmosphere beside 'em. :D Anyone remember when Supra's were sleepers? :)

There is another single Jade over here in Arlington. His name is Zach Erudabu (sp? sorry on the butcher job man). I don't think the car has moved in a year. Last I heard he was trying to sell it.

Kick ass thread!

Has anyone been to the new PHR shop right below Decatur yet? It's nice and clean and pretty huge. I don't am not to happy with a V8 for th enew supra, the 2JZ engine will be a hard one to replace.

2JZ-GE + PHR GT60 turbo @15psi = 1 fast four door sedan. :D

There is this one guy I met out there at PHR that had a Silver Supra that lives in Arlington I forgot what year model and what his name was he was thinking of getting a Single ... Do you guys know who im talking about? Hey White_lightning I went to that one Supra meet back in '00 and saw Paisley Supra, Rado Supra, and the UPR Supra ... man those turbos sound damn good!!! I recorded it all but my older bother recorded over it when he went of vacation :( ::sniff sniff:: Oh well .. Oooh yeah thats when some guy with a Blue Supra with a body kit from North Dallas wrecked infront Jimmy while going up there ... he was ok but his car had some bad damage done to the FMIC and Front Bumper, it was up at New Concept for a lil while ...

Dusty is a nice guy. He is running one of his supras this weekend in Houston. Don't know which one though. I ask about PHR cause I plan on going for small Stage I turbo upgrade there. They have good experience with the 2JZ-GE motor and they are local. A little pricey but I was impressed with the 2JZ-GE four door they TC'd.

personaly.. i would go to CTC.. it seems MANY of local supra ppl are shying away from PHR and going to cTC.. all i know is.. 99% of the local supra list members who activly race and mod their cars all ONLY go to CTC.. its your choice.. but i would sugest calling and talking to Kyle @ ctc before going to phr.

i just noticed you said 2jz-GE.. what kinda car do you have na supra/is300/sc300?

IS300. I was hinting the four door. :D PHR seems good cause they have done about 5 of them already. Meaning they have experience with the IS300 behavior and response to the gains in HP. If CTC has something for the IS300, then I will look into it. I was jsut at the new PHR facility this past weekend for an IS300 meet. They demo'd 2 turbo'd IS300's with Jarrett's pushing well 500rwhp. I like thier Stage I kit that puts about 380rwhp that is completely bolt on. The stage II requires headgasket and removal of the cat, etc...

I wil check out CTC, thing is are they willing to make such a sleeper for the right price.

um. the 2jz-ge is the NA supra motor.. it comes sTOCK in a is300

the 2jz-gte is the low compression monster that is in the TT supra.
PHR is workin on a VERY VERY expensive package to transplant it into an is300.

The engine in the IS300 is the non turbo one. Hence the 2JZ-GE vs 2JZ-GTE.

Here is a nice vid of a stge I turbo pulling on a couple of TT 2002 porsches.

Yum yum ... that video rocks I bet those guys in the Porsches egos shrunck a tad LOL. How much boost was the IS300 pushing? Has he ran it at the track yet?

I wasnt aware that the IS300 had that engines in them. I guess I learned something new today. :)

Yeah, tell me about the price about the 2JZ-GTE conversion.

Starting price $20,000.0:eek:

Only if I ever wanted to reach the 900+rwhp levels, that's what I would do, then that leads to removing the IRS, and other things jsut compnesate that gain. $7k is not that bad though for a stage I will a promised delviery of 300+ rwhp as I have seen this in person. That's enough forme as I am only doing 182rwhp w/ 190lbs bone stock.

I don't knwo about taht actual guy. There are only about less than 25 Turbo'd IS300 in the US. Most of these were custom fabircations. Though, word is getting out and the trend is catching on. With the 2002 5spd now out, there will be more Turbo kits available and the beauty about it is that it's a complete bolt on. the 2JZ-GE/GTE eninge is a strong one and can take a beating without internal mods. Here's an issue off turbo magazine to browse if you have the time.

To be honest. There is not one TC'd IS300 in Dallas yet. Well, none that I know of. The closest one is at PHR and is Jarretts inwhich he himslef is pushing about 600rwhp. I think he is running it this weekedn in Houston for Drag War. Most of them are in Florida or California. That last IS300 is in Little Rock ARrkansa.

Thats cool DonkeyPunch thanks for the articles and looking up the mpeg for me. I knew that the had a SC Kit for the S2000 but I like definately like this set-up way better than that. I have had a Supra with 0 issues what so ever with the stock internals and I'm sure this engine is built with the same techniques. Keep us posted on your project ... I would like to hear how it goes for you. Good luck.
