welp you can make the conquest run 9's on the built stock engine. the supra will need a swap to befast. The one in the vid had a 7mgte as i said before. Both car's are top heavy and will handel like ---- by todays standards. they can be improved apon, but would never make me happy. Personally I'd go if you've got money and knowhow for a swap Supra. but i don't like fat girls anymore...

Holy crap, for once I agree with what you're saying.

Buk - those cars may have potential, but the main problem you run into when working on old cars like that isn't finding performance parts, it's fixing all the crap that breaks when you try to work on it.
By this time all the plastics are brittle, as are any vacuum hoses, and the wiring could be sketchy as well. Usually with cars of that age, anytime you touch anything under the hood, stuff breaks. And you can't exactly go down to autozone asking them for a specific connector.

also that sort of thing usually isn't noticed, untill you try to start your car later, and it's running like *** and you don't know why.
Four days later you find out that when you bumped that vacuum hose with your elbow, it crumbled and made your car run funny.

Save your money for something newer.
