[SupraMario]

You know your right man, but im not going to just sit around and stool in this my car is not a shit box besides the engine , Mark my words friend I will build a Supra 2jz with everything documented to help others, Yeah that money thing Lol Im working on it!

Cool, good luck.
also it has been documented...and the word money does come up a lot...ask me I know. Head over to the other engines subforum and you will find countless writeups on it, and the same with the build forum.

So far, you have said that it is going to happen, and not a thing has been done..... Good luck with those hopes and dreams, I feel like I am on a honda site because of the thread, "I will do this, and that, but I have no money to do so, but it will happen"

 

[levirolla]

I applaud the enthusiasm, but kind of a FAIL at the moment. Good luck with the possible swap. Waiting till I get a REAL job and another FAST dd until I do build mines.

 

[laotionracer101]

hm no faith :/ ,, eh man we all start somewhere right?

No one is "hating", just stating that you are all talk and have no initiative. It is not "hating" when it is the truth.....

Plenty of guys making 700+ on a 'stockish' (what ever that is), for one. Then the vette enthusiast, underrating the engines for the most part, but not even bringing up the fact that the weight is significantly less then the mkiii. HP means nothing without weight when talking about beating one, unless on paper with dynosheets :nono:. A stock ls2 vette can trap anywhere from 112-115 mph and a ls3 vette will trap 115-118mph. A MKIII will need to approach 500whp to pull away from a car like that. Add in a few extras on the vette and it makes it that much harder, ls2 vettes trapping 118+ and ls3s hitting 120s. Lets not even mention the z06 which will trap 125-128 stock. Even a decently modded ls1 (heads/cam) c5 will run pretty damn hard and probably high 110s or low 120s. Stock they're no trouble though and a bpu 7m will run with them (not killing them though).

But taking in those number you'll need a very strong mkiii to 'kill' those cars (600whp). Now a stock 7m will have a hard time living at those power levels and you will most likely have to build the engine. With the costs associated in building the engine the 'much more expensive motor swap' isn't that expensive anymore, and on par with building the 7m engine.

Real Drag racers don't care about the speed it is unimportant until you hit the 135 mph and a full cage is required. a 130 mph running 10.8 will loose to a 120mph running 10.5 EVERYTIME. With that being said. The weight issue is the real issue. But if you can't drive a 10 second car who really care anyways. Your just gonna embarrass yourself out there running 12's.

However better to build a SBC or a 305 if your broke. cheap motors anyone can make fast. $$$$$ is key to speed in these cars.

 

[TurboStreetCar]

Not if the guy running 130mph puts a better tire on his car or learns how to launch. Id rather have a 130mph car then a 120mph car. On the street ill be winning unless you car REALLY works from a stop on the street.

Trap speed is a better gauge of the car then time. A shitty launch will effect time, not so much speed.

No its not the truth i have a job and am saving so its hating, and Ive done a hella lot research

 

[SupraMario]

No it really isn't truth is, save your money. Wait until you can drop it in all at once, and since you want to do a 6 speed. Your looking at around 15k since you are NA. My advice is drive it as is for a few years keep it in good shape, then when you do have the money and you still want to keep the car, then drop it in.

BTW saying you have done a lot of research and then asking the 6 speed 2jz question, points to us that you have done very little.

You're not going to impress anyone here, and it isn't worth it to do so. Just do it for yourself and then others might be impressed.

Talk = cheap.

Hey supramania you guys dont know me but i know you i read this forum constantly AND I MEAN THAT, i read and read, but now i would like to ask some questions, I love my supra and i wanna kill vettes, with a 2j in my ma70, but i want to do so with the getrag 6speed, i would like to know of anybody who has done this swap. Currently my supra is sitting stockies wheels , 7m-ge and running on low octane gas, yeah i know its a beast , But i hope to get a 2jz beast under the bonnet. Any Help would be nice Thanks

You're either lying or you're looking at the wrong sections, the question you asked seems to come up every week now and the following questions are very easily found reading.

Really? Where? How do I find this information?

There is a link in my signature, I suggest you read it. Whining about some other member's inability to search is simple litter in our database. Furthermore, it makes the search less effective, because the next time someone searches for "getrag 6speed", they are going to find your useless post instead of actual information they can use.

Try teaching how to use the tools here, instead. That's the difference between constructive criticism and belittlement.

 

[laotionracer101]

Ok well my bad for the Whole you didn't read thing but i do read man, i do, And Ive decided to stick with the w58, So sorry for the forum disappointment. As for it comes up every week well the posts Ive found were on supraforums.com . Really there is something wrong with the search function on here( no dis) might be me or my computer :/, just thought someone could help instead of be a dick about it. BUT my apologies i mean no offense to anyone Just tried to look up to the supra community.

I don't think your a drag racer. Maybe a street racer. Who wants to run from a roll anyways? And again Traps are at the strip. And slower speeds win if the time is lower. You don't win by going fast. You win by getting there first. So unless your time is lower but you waited to spool your turbo and had a 2 second RT then speed will impress noone that is a drag racer.

Just look at it like this. Duane (Upgradedsupra), Shawn (Besttrans), both have popular 9 second cars here not 130+ cars.

But to each his own.

If you do an NA swap and use your NA electronics it is a very very feasible swap to do. If you do the 2jzgte...well then your looking at a very large chunk of change, being your W58 will not hold even the stock power of the motor for long if at all.

OH shit are you serious? about the w58? i want the gte so what are you saying i should do?

 

[87mk111]

use the r154, or if u want a 6 speed, Search on how to do the the t56 chevy tranny. It easrier/chaeper thatn the getrag/v160/v161 swap.

I really doubt the OP is talking about drag racing, and more of a casual street race (roll 95% of the time).
