Please clarify - when you say "upgrade as much as possible", what exactly do you mean? In other words, what is your total budget (including labor), and your horsepower goal? Where's Qatar?

http://www.speedforsale.com/viewcar.php?vid=248 (don't look at the selling price; look at the stated investment - 2nd line in the title) ...and then please notice that this is 'only' a ~700rwhp vehicle. The reason it cost so much is because it was built for roadracing+dragracing+show, with an equally meticulous emphasis on all three.

800 hp, 75000 is the most i have to spend on it at the moment but im gettin around 150000 in total to upgrade it, road racing, and for now appearance and sound systems are my second priority, im gna do a bit racing before adding all the extra weight that comes with appearance.

http://www.toyota-supra.info/forums/...47&postcount=2 ? The reason I ask is because, although they won't get you to 800hp, they will get you enough rwhp for a fun (and VERY reliable) roadrace vehicle.

Of course, I'd be happy to provide you with specific additional modifications whenever you're ready to go to the next level. After the rims and tires, you'll want to put in an aftermarket fuel system and ecu. If it'll be a dedicated track car, then I'd strongly recommend a Motec ecu. If it'll be both street and track, then an AEM is probably a better choice. I offer a fuel system, as do a number of other online suppliers. After the fuel system and ecu, your Supra will be ready for a single turbo, which will get you that 680rwhp (on RACE FUEL, keep in mind) that you're looking for. You should also upgrade your coilovers and your sway bars at this time. A roll cage is a good idea too. You'll also need to do a number of cooling modifications on the car as well, similar to the ones on this site: http://www.boostaholic.com/supra/cooling/index.html
