Welcome to MB...I'm gonna take a guess and say that it was either Badfish or 3.8 (w/the evo) that posted on the import forums.

2jzgte ftw.

the NA supra motor is the 2jzge.
but close enough.


for the record, i live in a town where people think a dodge ram is a sports car.
lol...no seriously.
they do.

im bpu.

in supra language that basically refers to any modifications made to the car while it still has stock twins.

its basically the same as saying 'bolt-ons' with regards to a domestic vehicle.

fmic, intake, downpipe, exhaust, boost controller.

It's even worse than that. He sold the cobra and got a Chevy pickup truck. Then he got rid of that and got a Z haha

There's no improving after selling a sick cobra for a chevy pickup . I just give him a hard time though haha in all honesty all of his cars (and i guess truck) have been pretty cool and very clean. The cobra will always be my favorite and I think he should have kept it or I at least would have gladly accepted it as a gift

well, the pics he posted of the cobra on my forum were nice.

yeah i guess maybe he shoulda kept it, but you never know what circumstances were behind it.
sometimes we gotta get rid of nice **** cuz it costs too much, and trade it in for other **** that we can afford to keep or whatever.

hell, i dunno, man.

all i know is the guy has a nice fuggin camera.
lol
