i tohught they had the 2jz-gt
which is the n/a version in supras...swap in the 2jz-gte with a turbo and you'd be good.
ive always wanted a stick shift sc300
T in the engine code of Toyota means turbo. For some reason, 2JZ-GE just didn't look right to me, but it can exist...
hey man I know its a heavy car but its a BABY supra....
no it's not, it's a better camry, think of it like that.....
they have potential, but here in the states, the v8 is all but overlooked and the i6 is usually swapped for the supra setup......
in australia, the v8 has a few options for forced induction kits and has some support......you can piece together a kit to put a manual tranny in the v8 as well, and coupled with something like the FAT s/c, you could have a 400hp car that may last 300,000 miles

The SC400 was always a V8 (the 400 referring to the 4.0 liter displacement) and the SC300 was always a straight 6 (300 referring to the 3.0 liter displacement).
Like Fizz said, they are quite heavy, and were designed for smoothness and comfort, not speed.
Yes I know this I was just saying about the V8 hp ratings I wasnt sure if it changed. Didnt know if they changed something in the powerplants to raise hp was what I meant. Damn my engrish sucks.
seen him again today but he had kids in the car so obviously i didnt try to race.he gave me the nod though i cant wait till i see him again, his ass is mine
sc300 = soarer = 1jz + auto that can hold 700 horsies.. woowoo.. id rather do a 5 speed swap and spend 3000 on a clutch and flywheel that can hold 700 horsies.. okay im rambling. lexus/toyota make some neat cars.
They made a manual version of the SC if I remember. It was very limited though and for the 6 cylinder. Usually the sc400 is a v8, the 300 is usually the i6 but it depends on year I guess dunno if they changed the powerplants. Those cars are hella heavy too so that would kinda be why there not that quick but throw you a 2jz or just turbo the v8 you got a beast.

i had one and they're not fast at all.....f22 accord fast for the 250hp version and even the 290hp versions with vvtli aren't fast, mid 15's i believe.....the problem is that they ALL came with an auto tranny that used up over 40% of the power because it was designed to be SMOOTH as fuck.........they're slow but i miss mine.....
