that amount of HP is cakework with the SR. It is easily attainable and especially with Signal at the Helm, probably there is more horsepower than that.

There are stock bottom SRs doing 530+HP Take that Supra especially since the car is lighter, it probably is Fast as Hell

Yea the SR is a great powerplant, have one in mine and at stock setup with Intake BOV and Exhaust, is quicker than a Z even at cruising. I am definitely keeping this engine and building it up even if I sell the car, never know when it could come in handy after I decide to purchase a Z.

That is Topics car from HIN. Mine is that first one from that link. Nice find man. Man, there are like 4 Garage Life cars in that link (my car, chris', the blue nsx, and the orange rx7). Anyway, yes, Chris' car is sick and he worked at Signal. He did all the work on his car with help from his long-time friend Tony Angelo. He no longer works for Signal nor does he drift for them. His car is friggin sick nonetheless. On the corners, that car catches up to me so friggin fast. Note, I have the greddy kit on my car too! Chris' car is a work of art for sho.

aaaactually brian...

they are 18x10 racing hart cpf tune, with a 23 offset, AND a 18mm spacer front and rear. So it is now 18x10 +5 front and rear... tire sizes are 225/40/18, and 245/40/18.

and yes, me and tony angelo built that car. the one thing i had signal do for me was tune it, and the tune was way off at d1 and it did not drive well at all. i am having it retuned as we speak and the car will be ready to go for drift day 14.

the spare rims he was going to put on the front of your car were my 9s. but i run 10s all around on my car.

the weight balance is way better now. (why does everyone ask this question??? we dropped almost 300lbs on the front end alone of a understeer-happy car) the car rotates awesome and turns in like crazy.
