what should i do? I have always wanted a Supra, who doesn't? well, i just inherited $15,000 and im looking at a supra SZ which is non turbo, or an RZ which is twin turbo. Which would be easier to do buy the SZ and do a motor swap or just get the RZ? Give me some help guys...

dude....RZ..twin turbos...or just save up even more and get a kickass skyline?!!!
if you got the SZ wouldnt it just cost the same or more if you were to swap out for a diff motor?

i can tell you that if you get a non turbo supra and try to put a twin turbo engine in there you will spend 10k on the swap alone plus the car have to change ecu and a bunch of stuff when its all said and done you just shelled out what you could of spent on a twin turbo bpu supra

RZ! no questions about it!
But imagine what a mean accord you can have if you'll drop your 15g in it.
Fully build h22, 25PSI boost, beefed up tranny, stage 4 racing axles, slicks, stage 4 clutch, 75 shot, 500whp Ahhh soooo worth it! You'll prolly have some money left for a decent set of rims+tires, shocks and springs, and a nice lip kit. LOL
hooked up 500hp accord vs bone stock RZ plus some payments? cuz you prolly wont find a decent supra rz for 15G. 95-97 RZ be like 25-30G's
Supra is a nice car but paying that much money for something used and abused is not worth it. They are overrated, just like NSX's and RX-7s.

well im getting my baby back in about two weeks with an H22...YEA I CAN'T WAIT!! (but really who can) so maybe I'll take you guys advice and build it completely...lat me ask you guys a question...this is what im thinking about doing with the old cord, JE pistons 8:1, Crower rods, balanced Honda crank, titanium vales, springs, retainers (I found a shop that will do it for $4000 including parts) skunk 2 stage 2 cams, skunk 2 cam gears, unorthodox racing pilleys, AEM fuel rail, AEM fuel press reg, AEM high flow filter, skunk2 intake, ACT stage 4 clutch, ACT flywheel, stage 3 maybe 4 axles, fluidyne radiator, greddy radiator hoses, Apexi S-VAFC vtec controller, Apexi boost controller, and that shop will build a custom turbo kit for the old cord for about $4000. what do you guys think would that be worth it you think? Or go with the supra, i've been trying to decide all weekend!! let me know guys!

its 4g for internals and head rebuilt. the turbo will be between 2500 and 4g and then all the other crap to go along with it.
