SupraMario's 78 Rolla Build AKA the IS50

[SupraMario]

Hmm, well there are two 1987 Rollas at pull a part and one 1980s rolla. I think I'm gonna go check them out see what is left on it, but I really do want to put this thing on a real suspension setup and not leave it on springs cause it is garbage on the leaf springs.
I found this place:

2 little options here but not much.

Get the car! It is cheap and will be worth a lot of money even if you just set it up back to stock

www.3tcgarage.com is a good forum. As far as motor goes a turbo 3tc is very nice and tame. LOL. looks nice but dont take an air chisel to the floor pans or you might end up in the same boat as me with my 74 rolla.

O shit! Nice man, I'm trying to figure out what to do with the leaf spings I can't find any info on what they can be swapped out with strut/spring wise. I really am not a fan of the things.

There is a 71 and a 79 in my local yard. I have only seen 2 on the street. Sexy car man!

Not really, trying to figure out what motor to put into the car, been doing a lot of sanding and fixing rust.

At this point motor wise, I'm either

2jzge (Really don't want to, as the weight would kill the car)
4age
Sr20
Hayabusa motor with 5 speed trans

Yea I've robbed the 77 and 79 in my local pull apart.

 

[ms07s]

I vote for a 4agze or 4age-t.

Bone stock LS something

And some really stiff suspension setup, along with Drag Radials all around the car and a roll cage lol.

Or even just a stock 4age for now. You'd be surprised how quick the little 1.6 would pull you around in just N/A form.
I had an 87 ae86, 4ac and automatic, probably put out just as much power as you're dealing with right now.. but I drove my 87 mr2 5spd around for a while and it was a blast. It's no supra, but the high revving and quick response makes it a fun daily for sure

The Current motor in it is the 2tc so I doubt it has as much power as the 4age.
