I'm aiming to build a track/drift-spec JZA80 Supra. Evil or Very Mad

As some of you may recall I am transplanting a 1JZ-GTE VVTi onto my JZA80. As you know this engine is commonly used in Japanese drift-spec Chasers and Soarers (for its awesome midrange torque) therefore there are some benefits to be had from this conversion...

Some have also said that the Supra is too heavy, but I'll be spending some efforts to lighten the car sometime down the track (titanium exhaust, carbon fibre panels etc). I've seen some Supras in the US weighing in at approx 1350kgs (with carbon fibre panels, stripped interior etc) so this weight should be light enough for track/drift duties...

However, can anybody tell me what's the weight balance of the JZA80 Supra front to rear (ie: is it 50:50, 60:40, 55:45??)

Any help is much appreciated! Smile
