I pull up next to him, and the guy seems cool. Has some grey Bride racing seats, HIDs, to the floor, and some good looking rims with killer offset. Greddy exhaust as well (badging said so). He looks over and i asked him sr20? He said yeah with a smile.

I had no idea how an sr20 pulled and figured in a car that small it would do some serious damage. We roll on first and he floors it, so i get right on it. I swung high up to 6300rpm (thinking hed be damn fast) and first gear i couldnt hear him anymore. When i popped second i could see him pretty far back in the rear view mirror, and third i just let off thinking hes not gunning it, and he flys by me. We try second gear and he does a little better but i still wouldnt call it a race. Killed him.

I got lost so we ask him for directions. We pull over, he pops his hood and yup, confirmed sr20. He kept wanting to see my engine so i finally popped it and he was perplexed when he saw a pretty stock 7m. lol

Thats a Supra for you! :)

When he saw the 7m.. he asked me how much i was boosting, and when i said stock boost that contributed more to his confusion lol.. Yeah he was pretty stockish also. Exhaust, Intercooler and piping, and intake.

I helped a friend do the SR20DET swap in his 240 last month. When we went for the test drive I was waiting on the spool up to happen like it does in the Supra. Lets just say it never came. He is proud of it though.

No, seriously, the blocks are weak meaning you can't really push them nearly as hard as you can a KA...

I'm more scared of a boosted KA than I am any SR...

OF COURSE!! They're not that nasty!! Besides they're light in the ass and cant hook unless they work REAL HARD to learn how. Most of em are set up for drifting anyway - getting the ass loose - so why would they hook up for straight line performance?!

The KA's are built for torque so with boost, they are torque monsters! But...with an RB26 or RB25, they're in our territory then. With an RB20, it's a2.0L inline 6! I dont know...but they sound DAMN GOOD LIKE OURS!!
