Pics: Denso Supra Pro Car
My friend Hirokazu and I went to a local DOCOMO shop last weekend where they were showing a new DENSO car. Heres a few photos from the mini debut show. The car didnt have a motor but the rumor is that it will have a V8 rather than the conventional I6 TT. Its just amazing how the whole car is constructed from Carbon Fibre.
Enjoy. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...e/PICT0019.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...e/PICT0015.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...e/PICT0013.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...e/PICT0010.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...e/PICT0001.jpg |

by the way, u must've been excited! The sequence of engines used for Supra's in JGTC has been 2JZ-GTE during the early years, Then they moved to the MR-2 Engine, now they're using the Toyota Tundra V8 (We've all seen Celica V8's in the drags). Adamo, great post I love Denso! :appl: |

: omg, i can't beleive someone made a somewhat serious reply to such a silly comment of mine!!!!!! :laugh: :laugh: do u really think i was even remotely serious about a B16 in there? |
Denso makes radiator cores, spark plugs, ECUs, and sensors.

by the way, u must've been excited! To say the least I was amazed by that car. It's not like you see a pro-car everyday on display. Wait... I'm sorry... at a DOCOMO shop?! Damn. They must be having a tough time selling phones |
I can't wait until my local strip club has a car debut!!!
Indeed the 3sgte was a fantastic motor, I've always been curious why NA supra owners don't try to swap one of those MR-S engines in, rather than try to scrounge the $16,000 to do the 2JZ-GTE swap. |

Oh well!! Can wait to go back home this summer! |
its going to have 3UZ-FE based engine running, like pretty much rest of the GT500 class Supras.
for the non-Toyota peeps, its the 4.3L block in LS/GS 430, block will be punched out to be 4.5L |
