trev64 Regular Location: Melbourne Registered: July 2002	Re: Weight balance of the Supra Tue, 01 October 2002 09:45 I drive a MA70 supra and i can tell you that when driven correctly in semi stock form they have very good handling. BUT!!! I have bilstiens in it but that is it (stock everything else includig height). When I bought the car the shocks were worn and show handling traits similar to what FWDboy was describing but not as bad. I had them rebuilt and it transformed the car with no change to the stock valving. The car handled like it was on rails and when the back end did slide it was perfectly controlled and still sat flat. (another) BUT!!!!! The car then recived a 1JZ transplant and puts out close to 300hp at the flywheel. Although the car still turns in good on exit if the tail goes it's bad news. Lots of body roll and very savage it bucks like a bull. So the moral is if you put in 50% more power the handling is probably going to be 25% worse. [Report message to a moderator]
