:bthumb: Get a VR4 or RT/TT :bthumb: , TRUE it will cost more to get to BPU Supra territory BUT that's 'cause Supras come stock w/ 550 injectors, hi-flow fuel pump, and higher cfm turbos(i think around 400 each, equivalent to 15g Mitsu turbos), BUT also the money that you'll save by getting a VR4 will cover those mods and some repairs as well(94's are around $13-17k now, compared to $22-25k for Supras)
Here's the rundown.... cost for 550s, ARCII fuel controller, EBC, 15g's, Supra fuel pump, exhaust, downpipe, intake..... probably $7k and that's a CONSERVATIVE estimate, if you go ghetto like me you can get stuff like exhaust and EBC cheaper used, and these are parts that are just as good used as new... turbos and injectors however should probably be new but still aren't that bad used, the only part to really stay away from used is a clutch.... With those mods you're at $24k max and easily 500+ hp at the crank, also a 94 VR4 for $17k probably has <50k miles another thing to think of. Unfortunately the notoriety that stupid movie gave supras(fast and furious) had to jack up the prices, which is great for seller, but bad for buyers, BUT if you plan on going all out then price shouldn't be an issue(neither should insurance) and i'd still recommend a VR4 so you could be a leader and not a follower. To all the MKIV owners on this board, i'm not tryin to steal away a potential member I'm just informing him on other options, and well face it, Supras are already everywhere, don't you wanna some more valid contenders?
As far as insurance i'm sure your mom has a camry or a minivan or somethin that you could be insured on 'cause remember if you're only 16 it would still LEGALLY be your parent's car so you're not doing anything illegal by being insured on the Camry while driving the Supra, hell that's what I do, i'm insured on a 93 Astro van, so I laugh when people ask how much I pay on insurance for my VR4, 'cause those people are stupid. Anyways I think the problem isn't insurance here though.... it's whether mommy wants her son in something that dangerous...
