Hello guys, I was wondering if I should rather buy a 1990 turbo fc3s that is fully modded with new engine making around 350-380HP?. Or a stock 1988 5spd supra? If i got the supra i would still mod it to about 450-500HP. Please comment and give the pros and cons for each.

well this is a Supra forum so i say supra. but not before the costs. how much for the FC? the Supra? what condition are both in? I know that people who cheap out on mods for the both cars tend to die as well. Oh and Pistons own Rotaries in durability. even the 7m's with theyre connecting rods...

I don't know then man. FC is awesome as autocross ( i used to drive a FB when my dad owned one so i assume it is almost the same) and it can be a mad drag car. But if rebuilding an engine a year due to beating on it is your take, then FC all the way. Supra will require rebuild too but not as many :p

yea, i had 3 friends with turbo II's and all had to rebuild before they even hit 90k miles. they're nice though, but too much of a hassle for me.
