im curious why the revving ability of the motor has anything to do with the purchase of one? i mean you can get a V8 to spin assinine RPM aswell..but for the avg joe car builder, its pointless.

Some people don't know that RPMS don't mean shit if you don't have an engine built to perform at those levels. Thats why this thread was started

all S4's redline at 7000rpm, fuel cut is right at 8000rpm i beleive.
S5's are split; NA's redline at 8000rpm and fuel cut is 9000rpm; ive been there before. it comes with smoke screen and a loud backfire. T2's are 7000rpm and i think fuel cut is 8000rpm.

I have my GTUs undergoing body work and paint and itll be up for sale soon. If your Supra is in decent shape, we should work out a deal of some sort. I prefer Supras, so i think we would both be helping eachother out on this one.

To go that high on that motor you need money trust me, i've been around these cars for a long time and stock they break easy if you treat it like that.... so if you get one don't even think about going more then 8k .
