Hi i have a 87 supra tubro 5 speed. And this kid with a stock srt4 wants to race me. But my car is almost stock it has about 250 hp. And if i put a bigger intercooler and a aftermarket bov how much hp will you think i will be at? And how much hp does a srt4 have stock. And if i will not beat him with that stuf done what els do i need to do to get the hp up there?

SRT-4 has 210 HP(give or take a few), and 250 foot pounds of torgue. apparently it goes like stink, and im pretty sure the SRT-4 is lighter than the 87 Supra, so watch out.

The SRT-4 will probally win. Just because of the weight differences. If hes not a very good driver or misses a shift the race will most likely go to you.

Get the things your talking about and you should be fine. Just watch out for him on the top.

Ummm sorry to break it too ya but I'm pretty sure the SRT-4 will beat ya even with those few mods.... I have an 01 Mustang GT and even when I was stock I would beat my friends 89 Supra every race. Now I do know these supras LOVE mods but you're still heavy as a rock. But atleast even if you do lose you still have the satisfaction of not driving a dodge neon lol.

The car is not that heavy, the back seats are out the hole inside of the car is guted but two racing seats. But no weight reduction on the out side.

HO ya i do have the hole a/c unit out. The cats are gone, trunk is striped but i have not taken sway bar off.

Id leave they sway bar. Its not all that heavy and youll lose some handling by taking it out. taking out the ac compressor and the condensor in front of the radiator is easy. But I think you have to move the engine forward to get some of the lines to get out all the ac vent boxes (which are a considerable weight). If you go to graphics and look at my car in the "Rate my car" thread youll see where they sit, behind where the glovebox used to be. youll also have to re-route a coolant line that went from the engine into the ac, so that the line just goes back iinto the engine.

I will after the frist of the year. Because it looks like shit now because the front clip needs painted, and the back bumper does also. I am going to get thoes painted, and the only thing wrong with this car is the dumb ass befor me was going 60mph down the road and desided it would be cool to take to top off wile going down the road, and ya you know the rest. Now the hole top is scratched. So i have to get it painted also. And i also have to get a digital cam. So after the holidays i will.

Reminds me of my first supra. I rebuilt it and the first thing I did was take my parents for a ride...Forgot to screw the top down. Flew off like 10 seconds into the ride. When everyone asked how I got scratches on my roof I just told them I was all pro and could do barrell rolls with my car.
