Was that an LED AFR guage?

It's an AFR gauge but could be LCD or LED.

EDIT: It isn't backlit so it's more than likely LED.

Why? You've never seen those before?

**Fastest95PGT** · 2-16-07, 11:25

Yeah, I leaned toward LED, but I suppose it could be either.

It's an FJO or a PLX or something like that.

Cody's car is sick! WOTM knows how to put together a Supra.

seemed kinda slow, with all that lag.

Those runs were taken up to the 150mph range.

**ghostling** · 2-19-07, 2:04

still gives decent acceleration while lagging..

150 highway, yay. What kinda track time would it get though.

Exactly. I've seen and rode in Supras that had insane turbos but had really crappy 1/4 mile times for the horsepower that they were capable of. A majority of high horsepower Supras run 11-12 second quarters just like everyone else for the simple fact that traction is an issue or they simply ran out of money and can't afford to make it as fast as it should be. The guys that are running 6, 7, 8, 9 second quarters spend a ton of money on their cars. The guys with highway mosters spend a decent amount but most of it is just on a turbo and the rest pretty much stock. I will say though, every huge turbo Supra that I've ever been in still feels like it's going to rip your face off. The problem is that most of these guys don't/can't take advantge of the horsepower until the end of the track. By that time they've already been beaten by a Civic.

Would have been nice to see the speedometer in the video. That's what makes things impressive instead of someone else just saying "that was to 150mph"...

I remember one of Rebel2k4's videos a long while ago which had a speedo shot and it was much more impressive.

Cody's Supra, along with the other 2 WOTM-prepped Supras, run high 8s/low 9s. They are set up fantastically well.

Here's the owner of WOTM driving his personal car. Yes that is a stock 6-speed transmission.

And here is the car that was in that video, at the track.
