h: I know its over hyped, but theres just something about that engine.

yeah its something like a 17:1 ratio where sti's/evo's/itr-ctr are at or under 13:1

but u can hawk a loogie at the 2jz and it would make 50whp and 75 ft lbs of torque

Hey moron it is the chassis of the vehicle and not being able to get the traction to the wheels. This has been a long known problem in the Supras to get them past the 10 second mark.

If you knew you wouldn't have posted what you did which was a dumb comment with no real substance to it.

Guess I shouldn't be so surprised though.

I thought a majority here would get the meaning behind that comment...considering a majority of people mention it whenever someone post something about a Supra here (as well as other forums) and AF post enough about the Supras that we should all know it.

After basic and training, I have finally decided to try and find a gently used, older NSX....depending if I'm state-side.

Oh god, if you stress out enough on fixing the MR2 you're going to have a heart attack if you get the NSX.
