hate to say it but a cobra motor would have shit itself long before 199mph. that guys and idiot for going that fast...should have shifted to 6th at least. i dont know of any factory boosted motors that can take 200+ mph like the supra can. hate to give them credit but toyota built a hell of a motor.
did I hear someone say is that lean and the guy driving say I dunno.......? also 11.4 aint that lean thats around where you want it aint it no more that 11.8 right is safe?? maybe something else caused it might be wrong tho
if you watch the video, in the 5th gear pull it was at 20.00 AFR and he still stayed in it for a few seconds. That right there = MORON.

I love how everyone hates on anything thats an import. c'mon lets get serious and all admit thast the Supra's along with the Skyline's are very well built cars. Supras Stock longblock can handle 1000HP(not saying it'll hold it forever either).
This was right on Long Island in NY. I'm pretty sure he spun a bearing. He's making 1000hp though too him and a few others put together some films "Life After the 1/4 Mile"

That is rt287 in NJ. Very little traffic and easily able to support 199mph.........lol
Rt. 208 from High Mountain Rd. to Ewing Ave. is great too since they repaved it.

That's crazy! I work in the Millenia Mall area and I saw that 03 Cobra parked in that same spot at the Pollo Tropical a couple of months ago when i was on my lunch break.
Not any more expensive than any other car. You can get a new 2jzgte shortblock for around $2200.

Videos always make the car look like it's going slower than it is. Watch a video of a 9-second car and then go ride in one or stand near one that's getting into it. It probably was going that fast but the kid driving was still a jackass.

Hmm, do you know someone who owns a Supra and spent $2,200 to rebuild? I know a couple guys who had to rebuild 700rwhp+ Supras and they had to cough up $8-10k+ when it was all said and done. I'm not going by internet catalog prices, going by what people actually spend.
Anyways, I know you love to defend Supras, don't get so defensive, the stock motors are tough but in reality, (not in internet land where every stock supra motor/trans/IRS handles 1000rwhp+) failures do happen like with any platform.

I do...my buddy who bought a rough '94 mkiv with a messed up shortblock replaced it with a stock shortblock and had the auto built by BoostLogic. I was simply telling you what you could replace what he had in that car for. He ended up spending about $5500 for the shortblock plus trans and converter and had a setup that has been handling almost 750hp for quite some time now. Not bad if you ask me.
If you decide to go all out and do everything, then of course the price will add up. Just as it would for any car, but if you replace the shortblock then I don't see how you are saying it would be extremely expensive when the shortblocks are on par with most other shortblocks and actually cheaper for one that can handle the abuse it does.

Well the only the guys I knew with Supras were making between 700-900rwhp, when they went to rebuild they obviously went with a stronger than stock setup to avoid failure again. Not all out by any means. Both of them had big $$$$ invested in their cars though, and when they had to rebuild it WAS FAR from $2,200.
All I said was that's going to be an expensive rebuild, don't read into it too much.
