More details on your supra please. Since I haven't been able to find an Evo in my price range, I'm saving up for a mk4 supra instead. Any reason why you got rid of your supra?

Whaaa? A decent condition, low mileage MK4 (manual, TT, clean title) is worth quite a bit more than an evo...

Welcome from another MK4 to Evo owner.

These cars are way different than supras. And they aren't as reliable.
Nice looking Evo!
Let the spending begin

If you're Canadian then you can get a JDM non turbo supra for nothing now. When I was up in ontario there was tons of rhd ones. Selling for around $14k.

Drop another 10k into it and you've got yourself a really affordable good supra.

Thanks guys the evo seems quicker down low and handles like its on rails, the grip is unbelievable but top end the supra was ridiculous. The evo is badass on 26lbs with a conservative tune running rich. I was told it makes 490whp. I'd like to take it somewhere local and get it tuned here in central Fl. Any ideas where to take it? I'd like a tune on 93 and on E-85.
