I currently have a 97 Eclipse GSX and have found that I'm tired of modding. I curantly have an Aprilia RSVR, so if I realy want to go fast I still can. I would like to pick up a MKIV Supra NA, but have a few questions for you all.

First is what kind of inheirent problems are associated with this car? (i.e. the Eclipse is subject to crankwalk, and the timming belt jumping teeth) So, basicaly what you do all find are the common problems.

Second, is the 2JZ an interference engine?(will the pistons make contact with the valves if the timing belt breaks?)

And what do you all find is your average mile per gallon, and what occtain is required for the car? Can you run regular, or must you run pluss, or supreem?
