Brick = MKII, Cement Block = MKIII

so what does that make a mk4 then ?
it has a higher cd than the mk3.

a bloated whale ?

mk3 = .32 cd
mk4 = .33 cd
x8 cressida = .34 cd

A wall.

Edit: I've done 90 like twice. I don't have the luck to speed and get away with it... in a supra... alive.

Seen 5500 in 5th before. 225/50/16 rear tires, R154, 3.73 gear. Speedo's been broke for a while, but I know rpms don't lie. :)

Saw over 5k in my SS once, in 5th gear... speedo was damn near buried, and that was with the tops off and windows down, and that car is 100% stock. Scary thing is, it had more pull in it.

LOL still fail that you only ever drove it at 90, these cars come alive over 100 :)

Lol I guess it's not fair to the supra, so I'll do something about it.

Seriously I've never driven anything that was happier above 100 than the Fat car it just cruises along like it's a normal drive, when you come back down to normal speeds on the in lap at the track it feels like walking ;)

My 88 n/a was so quiet that I caught myself accidentally doing 120-130 through a large portion of Utah at night... Wondered how I had crossed the whole damn state in 5 hours haha!

And 140.3 huh, IJ? Not too shabby, I only let off since the tires are only rated to ~130. If I had my summer tires on it, I don't see any problem trying to top the thing out on the hill I was going down, it's STEEEEEEEP. ;)
