Sure, down the road I'll upgrade this and that, but I want to make sure that if I got say an mk3 that I'm not cornering myself when I should have gotten an mk4. I'm looking specifically at project cars ..and have even considered the mk2 cars but someone said to go to at least the mk3 for the better parts.
If you want a 1000hp-capable engine, tranny, and diff...right 'out of the box' (bone-stock), then go with an mk4 6spd. Of course, this will highly capable 'base' will cost you quite a bit over an mk3.

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
