Your rank should say nissaTROLL on it, or nissaSHILL..... who do you think you are the Alex Jones of the automotive industry lmao?!

So theres this thing called JGTC in Japan, and it had a Toyota Supra .... mind you a Supra of all cars (advertised as Supra), in 1997 with a 3SG platform 4 cylinder engine. Tom's Castrol Supra for sure had it and possibly the Denso Supra, both had 4 cylinder based engines at some point for specific class rules, and I'm sure neither one was a slouch on the road course if you know what I mean.....

They aren't looking at D.I.Y. enthusiasts exclusively...... they are looking at race teams and other race leagues and trying to homologate and/or replicate the racing concepts from the track to implement into automotive sports vehicles for sale to the public. An example of this would be a light Scion FRS with 50/50 weight distribution.

An engine is just a "big air pump" is what most tuners say these days. So basically if you narrow it down to simpler terms you just have a 4 cylinder, 6 cylinder, 8 cylinder etc "air pump" and you build it to hold whatever power you require of it.

The fact that it will wear down and eventually acquire an engine failure is inevitable. Even n/a untouched manufacturing factory engines will break down and fail. Just when you start modifications to maximize performance is when engine failures become more evident. Everything else is subjective and based on opinion.

I almost got the valve cover powdercoated red without thinking about it, people would automatically say it was a SR lol. The new oil pan setup is finally in, just need a CD009 trans and the overall setup will be complete.

Yeah a lot of people hate it, some people don’t know what motor it is. Which is pretty funny since I have heard people say it’s a RB, JZ.
