what about stripping it all down and replacing everthing with new parts, including everything from the ground up?
Are you really going to do that? No. You're not.
To completely build a Supra from OEM parts would cost more than $30,000, not including the unibody.
What you need to specify is WHAT is going wrong with your Supra... I would imagine the most common (and annoying) problems with the Supra would be limited to blown HG's, rod knock and cooling problems. You could buy a brand new block from Toyota, you can have the head gone through professionally, add strengthened connecting rods, a high volume oil pump, a metal head gasket, a new radiator... and along with a Toyota gasket set, these things alone would probably make for a VERY reliable car for a very long time(provided you're not pushing 30+psi!). One of the main benefits of reading this Forum is the knowledge that everyone shares- not just about performance ideas, but about reliability upgrades- which address the key weaknesses of our cars.
