NEVER buy a MK4 SUPRA - Let me EXPLAIN!
In this video I'll explain why you should never buy a MK4 Toyota Supra. This may be an extreme statement but there are some financial concerns when buying a MK4 Supra especially with today's prices. Don't get me wrong the MK4 Toyota Supra is an awesome car and I have no plan to ever sell mine, but I also bought this car more than 10 years ago, when prices where much more reasonable. Now an OEM Turbo 6-speed Supra will cost you around $100K and that just the beginning of the costs of owning these cars.

    Always awesome to see good MKIV content! I've never understood the "drag pack" setup. Per Supraforums, I was the first to run 15" Welds with drag radials (BFGs) back in 2003. While great for the dragstrip, it's a horrible wheel/tire setup for the street. You have to run MT drag radials at 25 psi max and they're flat dangerous to drive on beyond a 1/4 mile blast at the dragstrip and completely ruin even a casual driving experience. There are streetable R compound tires that hook much better on asphalt as the MT drag radial compound is meant for prepped surface use which it does very well. They also look dumb on the street with a 28" rear OD combined with 18"s up front in what look like below 26" OD. Just sayin... ❤

    Solid video. I honestly was anticipating the 1000hp drop with the drag pack, but appreciate the "conservative" 750... That's where I'm at with mine, and for now, it's enough. Hoping "for now" stays that way for a long time to come.

    I can speak from the deep end of the pool, I hardly ever turn mine up and keep it turned down to ~750whp to enjoy on the street, car made 1040whp @ 35psi over a mile up in altitude. Thinking of detuning a bit to make it more balanced, I can say my personal sweet spot is around 800whp range, I have more, but I don't use it hardly ever.

    @@supram4n Good to know! Ha.. I bet that's a laggy lil thing.. I'm here in the DFW metroplex and there's never NOT traffic.. so I think unless you're purpose-built to use for drag racing, the 1000hp mark is mostly for bragging rights.. don't get me wrong, it sounds like it would be cool to say, but kinda useless for where I'm at, geographically, and in life.
