Swap to Supra Twin Turbo Engine ! nobody can beat u ! check out JDM, that thing is cheaper than a TRD Supercharge.

Now Young men in Toronto they drive JDM Old Sport car like Skyline, Supra, Turbo Civic, Nissan 240-300, RX-7, Celica GT-Four, Right Handed Steering wheel, Toronto will become Tokyo and Hongkong. New generation is funny, those cars i was driving 15-17 years ago.

Look, how much HP S/C give to ur car ? 25 ? 35 ? or 60 ? Stock engine is about 200hp + S/C 60hp = 260hp ? some engine in JDM give 350hp or 300hp at least, it cost less than a S/C. Im saying, its not worthy. Listen to others, do the option # 2,3, anythin except Supercharge. IF Gabe's supercharge is cheap, than get one, i think i will too, forget the TRD <<

I love to have another S/C for myself but the money ive spent on the Celica it was dum, the S/C cost too much and not worth for the power gain of my car. Dealership = 7k$ CAD, from SolaraGuy at least 4k$ CAD including installation. If i go to USA ill save a big bucks.

Tho I'm in love solaras it would be my dream car to have a 2jz twinturbo.. Gotta win the mega million first lol

20 30 g for engine swap ?,,,no bro JDM Engine cost about 2-3 K $ Canadien Dollars, the swap will take a month n cost about couple thousand, for engine mod or super mod Canadien mech is crap, but Trans n Engine Swap, they are King of Crab, and Red Lobster heheh, google for JDM, main location is in Montreal Quebec, there is one in Ontario too.

PS: Forgot to tell u, those r used engine, its hard to find new n its expensive ofcourse.

Hmm that's strange.. I've searched and called some people when I talked about 2jz motor swap and turning it into rear wheel.. And said were to cost arround there.. Maybe I could be wrong.. Lol tho I did find some a while back in canada on the net.. About 1500 for everything that it comes to swap.. Was gonna buy it but then I heard the cost, so I said forget it lol..

Also I dont spend money on lowerin spring n those useless setup, i just need Strut Bar and Sway Bar from TRD. i figured out Solara stock is kinda the same to Celica n old Camry, we all wants speed,strong, big sound n ofcourse the 4 low profile wheel/tire, just focus on those.

Ask them to find something fit n work on Solara, they r Japan direct import, for Canada its really cheap, instead of S/C if we live in Canada, its 7000 thousand my friend, compare to 4 thousand JDM with more horsepower, which one do i choose ?

If you're actually talking about swapping a JZ-series motor into a FWD car, you're smoking some good sh*t to think it will work or even fit in an MCV20 chassis. Get your facts straight.

Anything can be done with time and bags of $$$. Unlikely that anything like that would be streetable though. If you're really looking for power, wait on TRD4life's S/C and talk to him about setting up a full motor as well, 3MZ block/1MZ heads/built & forged internals, etc. Gabe knows what's up.
