Toyota Supra Engine Question

l_o_t_s_r · 01-02-2006, 01:16 AM

I'm new to this forum and not very informed on Toyota Supras I'd like to know what if any horsepower difference there is between the "American" Toyota Supra Twin Turbo(being the ones sold in USA) and the "Import" Toyota Supra Twin Turbo(being the RHD Supra), if I remember correctly the American Supra is rated at 320hp. and are the stats posted on most sights correct for quarter mile time stock for the domestic Supra being around 13.6 seconds? I'm looking into getting a supra in the future and would like to learn more about them and find out how accurate this information is.

I belive the export supras had bigger injectors and steel turbos.

lhd mk4 has 550cc injectors, ct12b turbos (steel) 320bhp

FYI/fwiw, the intake-side cam is different as well.

really the RHD Toyota Supra has less horsepower? I always thought that Imported cars were higher horsepower :S apparently I'm wrong. thanks for the info tho.

btw I'm told that you need to put alot of money into a supra to ACTUALLY be able to run a 13.6second in the quarter mile is this true? or are they just people that think they know something and like to talk out their butt? lmao

A lot of money to run 13.6.?
NO!
Thats like STOCK or slower then stock.

lhd supra should probly do a cat back exhaust & intake and do low 13's quite easily
even the rhd supra doesn't take much to get into 13's either
