Please read my
previous post. I already answered that question, with these two links:
- http://www.boostlogic.com/parts/supr...oKitStage2.htm
- http://www.mkiv.com/techarticles/aut...wap/index.html
Here's a quote from the first link:

This kit contains everything you need to convert your Non Turbo MKIV Supra ... into a turbo charged sleeper.

...and here's a quote from the 2nd link:

I don't know how I can make it any simpler for you...

Again, na->t kit $5K + install (~$2k). Auto->manual swap $5k-$10k. That's $12k-$17k for those two changes. If you're lucky, you'll find an n/a mkiv auto in good shape for $15k. After the swaps you mentioned, you'll probably be up to $27k, which is more than enough to get an Mkiv TT in good shape (probably one with a 6spd too).
I still don't know why you want a manual tranny if you're going to be racing from a dead stop...auto is faster.
Also, some "suspension/handling" mods will make your car slower when racing from a dead stop. All the racing in f&f 1&2 was from a dead stop, right?
If you're serious about roadracing (i.e. the art of high speed turns), then plan to take some driving lessons at a
local roadrace track. A good roadracer in a crappy/slow car will consistently & totally embarrass an amateur in a "fast" car when roadracing.
