1000hp 7MGTE

[upgradedsupra]

While I will congratulate you on your mark of 400 whp on the stock 7m internals...minus that all important head gasket... keep in mind my point was that 2jz motors on stock turbos, internals, head gaskets, and head bolts put down 450-500 whp like they are still stock... And as I said before, many of the US cars that have been upgraded (out of the 7000 mkiv turbos that were imported to the US) are running around at 600-800rwhp which is way more then most upgraded mk3's.

Mk3's are great cars, but even with the financial backing most of you think the mk4 guys have they still will not be as good as an mk4 or the 2jz motor for that matter. 2000$ on an mk4 will go a lot farther in the HP category than it will on a 7m... That is a fact.

Look at all the BHG and knock knock joke threads on this forum...I lol at those of you that think differently.

BTW I have no need for 1000 hp (I think a 600 whp T67 or Gt4088R powered Mk4 is about the ultimate for power and response for road course duty's) but anyone that thinks a 7m is just as easy to make power with as a 2jz needs to have their head examined.

This all coming from a proud 7M owner who will be looking to ADD a 2jz powered 6spd MK4 to his stable soon

How many times do I have to say this, KEEP THIS ON TOPIC, and not make this a 1, 2J vs 7M thread. Go make your own damn thread about the other engines, last time I will say this.

I just love the way the 7mgte sounds! I don't care what anyone says, it's my favorite inline 6, or even 6 cylinder motor for that matter. There is no motor like it. It may have faults, but i think that gives it character. Plus, since it does have problems that keeps the ricer's from playing with the platform. Most MKiii supras i see are very clean, no double decker wings in sight! I love the 7M community,there is no community i would rather be a part of, a community in which limited funding and a lot of work get's you that 500hp goal or higher. Not a community in which you take your car to the best "tuner" in the world, pay extavagent amounts of money to just barely inch that victory on us hard working 7m guys!

Closing this thread down.....

No point to it except as Upgraded already saw, to start flame wars.

Keep an eye on GTEpowered.com for updates on power....
