Been registered for a while just havnt really had alot of time to say hello. workin 60+ hours a week....im sure you can all guess where that money goes....lol

anyway pretty soon here (and by soon i mean hopefully lol) im going to have my supra fully fixed and im going to be doing a pretty nice sized upgrade on it, aiming for around 500+ hp with cams, injectors, aem ems, and a gt35r. and was wondering (searched the site and couldnt find anything but maybe i missed it?) does anyone here have, or know someone who has the BC 272 cams in their supra and know a rough estimate on the hp gain/tips/whatnot about them? ive heard people say for a street car to just go with the 264 but i dont know if itll be a big enough gain for the money.

ps. anyone here from the colorado springs area?

yes its currently lowered in the back. when i bought it the coilovers were set one inch up, so the car sat about 2 and a half inches off the ground. roads in tennesse where nice....they arent so nice here....in fact they punched a hole in my DP the first week. so i raised the front end, but when i went to raise the back end the bottom screw on the coilovers wouldnt budge and i havnt been able to find a way to break em loose. 2 cans of wd40 and 2 of PB didnt even make it twitch.

besides that dent the car is pretty much mint. im the third owner and talk regularly with the second owner, and have every receipt for anything ever bought, upgraded, or replaced. i still have the original window sticker from 87 lol.

the wheels are 18" Rota D2's (ssr professor sp1 replicas lol)

interior is perfect. the shift is wrist length, no rowboat lol
