Been freelance tuning lately, spending a lot of time at Serious Horsepower in Houston, so we decided to take their Texas Mile supra, tweak the tune, make some changes to the suspension and see what it would do in the 1/4mile.

Here's the results our first night out at the track..

Let say I got deeply familiar with a Motec M800 in a very short amount of time

Figured some ppl may enjoy this since there were some other supra posts a while back.

After the TnT we had a talk and decided to shoot for the 6 speed record.. So gonna be doing ALOT of suspension work on the car, as it sits we were only putting down about 1/2 the total power the car is capable of making and it was already spinning in 2nd and 3rd... This should be alot of fun

 

The last video has already leaked all over the net. I saw it on another board that is mainly people from the VA and NC area. There are some Supra guys over on that board.

Good luck with it. I love to see the 6 speed Supras getting busy out on the track.

 

Damn that supra sounds bad ***. That thing pulls of the line...

 

Looks great chris!

 

Not bad for a manual tranny

 

The last video really puts it in perspective lol.

 

Nice job Chris!

 

wow!!!

 

That's a monster!

 

That supra is badass. goodluck in the future

 

It's no ProEFI, but it works alright.

Good work Delgado.

 

Nice! like how much that slick gets sucked in upon foot on gas

 

Nice! That car is legit!

Seems to have quite a bit of negative camber. Maybe dial in some positive camber on the rear so when it launches it goes to zero. That'll get you some more contact patch. I'm sure you know this though.

nice!
pretty mean! good job!

 

WOW that launch was mean!

 

yall should have seen it in person the supra was moving good job for your first rwd track set up man..

cant waint to finish my fuel system and see what you can do with e98

 

Yeah we are also still having issues with the tire rubbing the inner fender.. We're gonna have it mini tubed and have the fenders cut out and put some flares to clear the tires. Also the suspension is not even close to being right yet. Its great out of the hole (1.30 60ft) but it bounces a bit and it doesn't stay planted in the higher gears. I think it needs more spring and WAAAY more shock..

@Michaud.. haha yeah the Motec stuffs ok, there's just simple things that it should do out of the box without eating up I/O.. Especially with as much as it costs I would expect it to be much more intuitive feature wise. I did make a sweet progressive shift light though using an AUX out with a high side output and set to PWM with some super bright LEDs But I definatly miss some of the ProEFIs features.. In any case it'll go fast, just take a little bit more work to get it there and keep it consistent

 

...chris..

After watching that launch, i went from 6 to midnight lol.. Looks great buddy. As always.
