Lots of (crazy) folks have done this. Check out the message archives at mkiv.com or supraforums.com.

Sure people have done it.
What yr. Supra do you own?
If you've got an MKIV, I'd go BPU first.
Even APU before I wanted to mess with N2O...
Simply not quite needed.

Why argue nescessity?

I've been thinking of doing it. Leaving everything stock including exhaust and then sneek up on some people at a stoplight. That and all my Turbo badging is gone.

SE = Normally Aspirated.
In other words, not turbocharged.

LOL! Man I hope you're joking cuz if not then you need to stop watching F&F and get a grip!

Anyway back to the topic...there's no reason to run any nitrous on a MKIV as you can certanly make them quick enough without it. Simple bolt ons are more than enough. BTW...um where'd you get a '99 MKIV anyway? Grey market?

13.1 stock quarter mile is pretty f'ing fast. i don't doubt you could beat one but you can't tell me they aren't all that fast

The supra in the movie IS that fast, it CAN beat a Ferrari, and it WILL beat you. If you dont believe me, check out suprastore.com. There is a 490 BPU kit for sale that the producers of The F&F put in that orange supra. I would love to see your dumb ass Civic beat any MKIV. Oh yea, one last thing. I have civic-eating parts...

how fast was the supra in F&F, i think it was under 11 sec. 1/4 mile

so it would have killed that Ferrari in the movie, by ALOT more than it did
they just didn't want to make the Ferrari look TOO bad

yea seriously, they say its a 10s car. theres no chance in hell any ferrari could stand a chance against it

yeah but not only would it beat it... it would have beat it by waaaaaaay more than it did in the movie

The Ferrari F355 spyder has a 1/4 mile time in the mid to high 13s and a 0-60mph time in the mid 5s
and a 3 second difference in a 1/4 mile time is HUGE!
That's like the difference between a civic and a viper, haha

i didn't know they were that pathetic, so a stock tt supra could destroy one...hell a stock vr4 would have been a much more interesting race

well a stock supra only has a little tiny bit quicker times, so i wouldn't say destroy, more like hang with...
