man, they are running crazy amounts of hp out of a stock bottom end. however, good luck finding a TT supra, the 93.5's are VERY expensive still, like 20,000 for a high mile one. your looking 30g's for a nice supra a 93.5 nice supra, your in the 40's and 50's if you want a 97+

They are expensive, but cool if you have the cash. In another post, Gixer (who owns one) said it is rumored you can boost 22 lbs, but he cracked a turbo at 18, so he keeps it around 15-16... (if I remember correctly)

ummm, what are you talking about???? 30-40-50+ this isnt a vette. NO ONE can sell a car for more than its worth and according to http://www.kbb.com a 97 TT supra (fully loaded) is valued at $26,600. A bank wont give you a loan for a car thats not worth that much and every bank in the usa uses kbb.com as a reference. Thats if buying it from a person...a dealer, add 5-10grand. $50,000 haha yea...

Im going to have to agree... most of the Supras Ive seen will run you about 15K-25K... (For a stock one anyway) Ive seen moded ones 30K-50K... but thats just insane...

I think 94_AcCoRd_EX is about right..

check out some of the Supras on Turbo Imports.com

dont worry about the internals.......you can run 9's on a stock bottom end, its been done. 800hp isnt a problem.
however be prepared to have insurance rip you a new asshole when you get a Supra TT, the rates are high, go ahead....call em and ask :P

You could get a 300ZX TT. It will be cheaper.

I have heard that those are slightly unreliable as you start pumping more power through them unless you do a very strong rebuild. Is this true? I love how they can gain so much power from just a chip though.

very true, they do become unreliable as more power is brought upon the engine. nice car though with the proper mods, too bad the engine isnt that great. but you can always go skyline swap

Um, yeah. Ever since TF&TF the supra guys have shoved the superiority stick a little higher up and are now getting 25k for a 94tt with over 100k miles.

As for the Z32, the only ish you'll have is you absolutely have to change the timing chain at 60k and over 350hp you'll have some traction issues. Serious traction issues.

$25k for a 94 w/ 100k+ miles? where are you shopping @ man? ive never seen a 94 with even less miles cost $25k unless it was slightly modded or had REALLY low miles. and ive been searching for a couple months now
