Its got more miles than I really wanted buts its heavily modified with a lot of things being new. Its got 119xxx miles on it.
It dyno at 740+rwhp at 28psi of boost. Obviously its single turbo with everything needed to run a T78.

Holy poop! She looks killer! Just out of curiousity, how much did you spend for a car with 200,000kms on it, you don't need to divulge an exact figure... I know some guys are kind of private about that shit. Just a ballpark? And don't say more than $0.00 and less than $1,000,000.00 because shit like that is just silly.

I'm going to be using a torco fuel additive that bumps the 91 octane up to 105 for a fraction of the cost of race fuel. Here is the link:
http://torcoracefuels.com/content/view/103/40/
You can get a 5 gallon barrel here for $190 which should last me at least one summer.

I don't smack talk the mk4. I just get tired of people saying that its the fastest and greatest car in the world. Sure for a shit load of money you can make it fast but stock its pretty boring.

Well if you listen to all of the kids then the motor is bullet proof. But in reality not so. I spoke to a lot of supra owners when I was looking for a car. This one guy in Florida was selling his car because he was tired of replacing everything. Everytime he went out the car was flatbedded home because something broke. He broke the driveshaft leaving his driveway. So everything on that car was replaced from the motor to the tranny to the drive shaft to the rear end. His cars was making around the same power as mine with 30000 less miles on it. It all depends how it was taken car of.
R.K. |

| yeah the maintenance like with any car is the big thing. But the 700hp is more than enough to tame any cobras or z06's looking for a fight. On the track, nonetheless :thumbup:. |

What did your RX7 Have for power? If I remember correctly, wasn't it around 400HP?
Did you test drive this before you bought it? Having almost twice the power is going to be challenging for sure. Should be fun though :thumbup:
