2007 Elmhurst Toyota Supra Meet: Photoshoot!!!

Hi,

These pictures were taken by me at the Annual Elmhurst Toyota Supra Meet a few weeks back. Over the years it's turned more into a Scion gathering than anything, but I still LOVE seeing some of the amazing Supra's we have in and around the area. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves:






















SCION FUSE:

P.S. Shameless Plug: My Red FD (Shown in the pictures) is a Built Motor, Single Turbo RX-7 putting down around 450rwhp. It's also for sale and here's the link to the F/S thread : https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=674842. Thanks!

I believe it was turbo, but they refused to pop the hood. It's the ONLY time aside from the Auto Shows that this car has ever been seen. I forgot to take pictures of the interior. It was soooo nice!

No, this meet was in the chicago area, Hulk hogans supra looks much different anyways and he doesnt even have a red one i dont think. The orange car is sound performance's car. Sp's car is godly, like 1300 whp i think, has to be one of my favorite supras.

I'll post up pictures of the Anthracite one with the CCW's. His ENTIRE car including the engine bay was immaculate! IMO the nicest Supra there.

Woa...chill out there dude. I agree everyone needs to relax with the weight comments, but they are true. My brother and one of my closest friends have owned 3 MKIV's between the two and they are heavy and do feel a little sluggish. Fast as hell though, but not the best handlers IMO.


Your comment is just ignorance at its finest! Any car can be faster than any other. I know of plenty rotaries that can outrun a Supra and vice versa. It always comes down to the extent of the modifications and driver skill.

^ I don't understand why most RX-7 guys talk down on the Supra's weight. Especially considering an FD weighs close to 3,000lbs itself. Supra's however, posess a mighty equalizer known as "torque", so all of that weight is carried much easier than an RX-7 of the same weight and horsepower (hypothetically speaking) could. But, to each his own. As I said, I'm probably leaning toward a Supra over an FD because the general consensus is that FD's are crap unless you have a money tree in your backyard.

What did you think was going to happen? This is like posting pictures of a KKK meet on the NAACP forum.

btw, 700 lb is nothing to scoff at. You can't argue with physics, so shut up.

Noones makes a turbo specifically for one car or motor. All that turbo is, is a Garrett turbo. I believe SP was running a 4780 but that might be a 4788. I don't think they've stepped up to the big dog 5591 yet. Heres a pic of our shop car thats running a 5591 .


This car is actually sold but we have an identical one thats red now.
