Supra engine in a Solara from Turbonetics


They mean a full Solara, not just a shell and a tube frame ;)

if you have the money and are motivated enough to stand out of the crowd then go for it. it takes a lot of work and mula but if you have both then why not just do it then. Your car will be one of a kind and if thats what you want then go for it.

Solaras are Front wheel, where supras are RR, so you would have to rotate the motor so you could keep it front wheel, or you would have to cut the floor pans to make room for the supra 6 speed and also make room for a drive shaft.. it would be damn near impossible, and a waste of money... IMO

It would essentially eba Supra, and if you turbo it and work it out to what you want, I'd really liek to know what (street legal, full trim) $4g Honda will beat a Single turbo APU++ (or something of the like) Supra. I'll sell my crap right now and go buy that car.

$500 crx
$250 D16y8
$800 t3/t4 turbo kit with large front mount
$250 Hondata S200
$80 racing head gasket
$50 missing link

well theres your mid 13 second crx for under $2k

but Chris i was more or less showing the enormous difference in money when talking performance.

if you want to get all technical about adding another $5k to make it BPU++. that same $5k could make that crx VERY boost happy. stroked, bored, forged internal, ls/vtec style. upwards of 600fwhp where your supra is still choking and half a ton heavier

i knew this topic would come up again . . . a lot of people hope to make the 1JZ-GTE or 2JZ-GTE fit in the engine bay of our MCV20L . . . but without an investment of at least $15-$20 Gs, it's not very likely. better to go with the Soarer (JZZ30/31) . . . 8) 8) 8)

wow didnt know in FL things are so cheap over there..... in southern california a crx starts at 2g to 5g. those 800 kits are pos btw, they are all made in china.

any solara with supra motor===> not worth it. To have a build up 3SGTE is a more realistic goal. i believe many supra in the high end official races use 3SGTE instead of 2jzgte.

The 2JZ-GTE is a pig. That is one of the biggest complaints I read about the Supra i.e. the weight. Whereas the Pikes Peak Celica, HKS Celica and Top Secret Supra all feel that the 3S-GTE is the most efficient (weight vs. power) engine available. Plus the swap has been done for our cars so nobody is forging the way. I think the only variable is someone building it up and making our cars beasts. Jon.

i highly disagree with you
you wont find 750whp pump gas daily driven 3s-gte's
but we all know that realistically a built 2jz-gte is going to work the same build 3s-gte. 1400whp and ish

just get an old lexus gs or sc and have the stock 2jz and move on from their. you'll save more money weather its buying a supra, or trying to turn the solara into something it was never supposed to be.

Better:

Used 92 Civic CX shell = $1500

JDM H22A and trans + shipping, extra components = $3000
Used Forged wheels and street slicks = $1500

Suspension = $1000

Grand Total = $7000

And if you wanna get "crazy", add:

Bride seats = $2000
CF hood = $500

4 piece chassis support (strut bars etc) = $500

All this under $10,000

It will run 12's with out boost.

Ad a couple more grand and boost it, juice it, intercool it, stereo, etc etc etc all under $15,000

Also, these are the best components. You could purchase with a budget and keep it well under $10k and still have a H22A Civic EG


As far as a 2jz motor in a solara, you'll need an extreamly experienced team and a butt load of sponsership.
