if i get the bmw it would be left alone for performance..it would just stay the way it is an get a system an rim.

the 240 would get a turbo and some rims and be left alone

the sc i would go single 75mm an get a th-400 trans.not sure on how the rear ends are.

whats the hp liimits on a 2jz ge engine..what the max rods,crank and block can take..i would probley swith head,cams an intake with injectors after i got it an ad the turbo..not sure on the hp limites all around on the car.

Only difference between N/A and turbo are the pistons (higher comp) and the N/As dont have oil squirters. Certain big HP guys dont use them anyways though.

Only difference in the head is that N/A has a distributor and turbos have COP. After you do cams on it, you may go "holy fuck I wish every engine was OHC" . Like I said though, you'll need a diff out of a turbo Supra to bolt up. Brakes will prolly be insufficient as well, so you'll want those off of a turbo Supra (2nd best factory brakes in the world)

You start to realize why its cheaper to get a turbo Supra than to get an N/A chassis (GS300, SC300, IS300, N/A MkIV) which is half the price.

if the 528 is a sport package i would go for it. the 5 is a smooth driving well handeling car. as for if you want to mod it swap the head lights and tail lights out for newer style ones. if your wanting more power ess or vf can put you over 300 to the wheels (not a ton but its enough to be fun) and the m52 is happy with spray.

then again i'd rather have a nice 4 door over a coupe.

For a daily, I'd probably go for the 240 for the simple sake of the extra 3-5 MPG.

the vette is nice but i dont like the older body style, i would go with either the 240 or the SC, both cars have great potential and relatively cheap to mod, plus prolly way better gas mileage then that vette
