No doubting that lagwagon the 2Jz sounded very sweet the guy at wellington punished it all day and never missed a beat.

this may be very well, but a 2jz with a bigger turbo, injectors and an ecu with slicks could crack into the tens down the quarter...

toyota make a dam good motor!

a fairly basic setup ca18det ute or sedan does a 13sec 1/4 mile and i'd say a stock supra would be more like high 14 low 15

As I recall Converted's coupe with a worked A15 was faster around the track than WRXs and EVOs.

Oh tell him he would have to spent 6-8 times the amount of cash to get it to go fast too.

a supra would need 400fwhp to take down a 1200 with a stock ca.money would be on the datto in most times.

While a Supra does wiegh 3800lbs a turbo version can be made to belt 800 RWHP. Add big brakes and then can be quite track weapon , no it will not have near the corner speed of a 1200 but on a point and squirt track it wouldn't matter.
Let your mate love the Supra for it's ability to make huge power................tell him your about nimble handling which is why Datsuns are so popular.
