This post has been edited by njccmd2002: May 23, 2019 - 1:53 PM -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |

Those drawn out posts I’ve made and I still haven’t addressed the transmission... No manual trans option straight up sucks. No defending that one, no matter how good of a trans it might be. This car definitely won’t be fast enough out of the factory to justify no manual option. And you know it’s only a matter of time before there’s an LS in one of these, which will be BA. Since it won’t have the legendary status of the mkIV amongst enthusiasts, and since a lot of people don’t like BMW engines, I doubt if many purists will protest V8 swaps.
I did read an article earlier today that said the Supra’s engineers haven’t talked to BMW since 2014. That’s four years of development that BMW isn’t involved in if it’s true. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.
