My car...08 ss/tc that put down 318whp and 366wtq. I've since added meth, 3" catback, mpx crank pulley, and a new clutch and aluminum flywheel. With the meth on the car it put down 389wtq but then the stock clutch signed off. I'm assuming an 112-113ish trap car as it sits now.

I ran into an sc300 on i95 in Mexico today. I could see the driver switching lanes in my rear view pretty far back and I didn't think too much off it. As it got closer I could see its a Lexus sc300 with a front mount. Now two of my friends have built sc300's up in the past and I know they are no joke...basically a Toyota Supra in disguise.

As he pulls up next to me doing 60mph i'm already in 3rd gear ready to go. To my suprise it's an older black couple who looked to be in their mid to late 40's. We both hit on it at the same time and I couldn't even hear my own car. Keep in mind i'm catless with no resonator or muffler and this SC was screaming. We shut down at 110mph door to door with each other and the owner gave me an WTF look and started laughing. We exhanged thumbs up and went about our way.

While it sounded insane i'm thinking it had to be a cheap ebay turbo kit on low boost or something. I know it was a short sprint being from 60-110mph and i'm sure it would have started pulling away at higher speeds. Both of my friends SC's had no problem trapping in the 118-124mph range with a very mild setup.

 

Its an sc lexus with an cheap TURBO kit? Um ok

 

sc300 is the model of lexus.. it doesn't mean supercharged, dude.. come outside your cobalt box.. there are other vehicles out here..

 

cool story bro!

 

Bro, yeah.

 

Well, that car is 600 lbs heavier and around 100HP LESS than yours (stock). SO, in order go keep up with you 60-100, that car would have needed another 150HP...give or take. Turbo *KIT* alone wouldn't be enough...unless he dropped a Supra TT motor in there.

 

it has an n/a supra engine from the factory. Basically a thicker head gasket and some head studs with a turbo..easy 400+ whp. Its not any different then when people turbocharge the n/a supra or is300.

 

Ricer your an ******* idiot. My meaning was who would put an cheap TURBO kit on an sc300? Damn theres some gay fuckfaces here

 

Was the sc black by any chance

 

I've owned a few and with me in the car it weighed a ton. Enough weight to keep me o. The ground from when a f3 tornado hit me when i was driving in Nebraska... Its a 2jz engine either 2jzge or 2Jzgte. Ones boosted others not. And there's different types of 2jz..... One without vvti and one with. Also u Cn swap throw 1Jz from the soarer in there..

"Its an sc lexus with "A" cheap TURBO kit? Um ok"

Ricer your "A" ******* idiot. My meaning was who would put "A" cheap TURBO kit on an sc300? Damn theres some gay fuckfaces here

Its a, not an. Use "an" when there's a vowel starting the next word (most of the time) If you're going to poke fun, atleast dont sound like AN moron. Lol

 

The 2jz is a cast iron block... A 2jzge is not at all the same as a 2jzge... Heads diff. Cars diff. Internal are diff. And Wut. The 2jz bottom end was originally made for diesel.....

 

Nothing against u Bro. So don't take it that way but grammar online. Who in the hell cares..... Its not like its a book or something...btw he's not a moron!!!B][/B]

 

[QUOTE=ronn;5877507...unless he dropped a Supra TT motor in there.[/QUOTE]

my brother in law had one that he did this to. thing halled ass.

 

people's opinions vary. You dont mind it. I, on the other hand, do. And i didnt call him a moron, I said dont sound like one. If he meant to say who would put a cheap turbo kit on a lexus, then just say it.

 

Win.

I love screwing with people on grammar. Especially when they are busy calling each other "an moron", flaming, and arguing over obvious misunderstandings.

BTW, you should use the "multi-quote" function next time when you want to mess with people. It makes it easier and more fun to see who you're correcting. :P hahahaha


I love this forum.

 

lol, thank you kain...finally, some love. hahah

 

you can buy an SC300 for less than 5k. its a cheap car now. i used to have one.

 

Was the car like a brown color? Theres a black couple that lives by me that has one and he always tries to race me. But he can never keep up with me and everytime i let him catch up hes super pissed lol

 

How do ya figure 150HP with a *Turbo* only added??? No way. That would either have to be a Supra TT set up or a fully built motor to gain 150 HP. The only other possibility is NOS+*Turbo Kit*.

Supra TT:

1993
For the export model (America/Europe) Toyota upgraded the Supra turbo's engine (smaller, steel wheeled turbochargers, bigger fuel injectors, etc.). This increased the power output to 320 hp (239 kW; 324 PS) at 5600 rpm and 315 ft·lb (427 N·m) at 4000 rpm.[19] The turbocharged variant could achieve 0–60 mph in as low as 4.9 seconds (0–62: 5.2 sec.) and 1/4 mile (402 m) in 13.3 seconds at 109 mph (175 km/h).

That car has same curb wt as SC300.

 

I don't think you understand...its a supra tt engine without the turbo and weaker internals. Slap a turbo on it, head studs, and a thicker head gasket and you make Supra power numbers. I'm not saying a stock supra tt turbo setup...any aftermarket turbo kit on the sc300 can easily make rediculous numbers. Imagine an aftermarket Supra TT with a single big turbo conversion.

Edited the ricer list. Yes, easily.

 

one of the best posts i've ever read

 

Interesting discussions here guys! had fun reading different opinions and arguments. And I think one thing we should learn here is not to buy cheap Lexus parts turbo kit.
