That depends on what your stang has. With the ones in your signiture idk. You could easily beat him but I know the supras arenot really something to mess with if they are done right. But maybe thats just the newer ones idk. If he does have a JDM motor like you say he at least knows somewhat of what hes doing. I'm not a ricer by any means, I just have a buddy I talk to at work that knows alot about Honda's and JDM ****. Anyway good luck spankin that Supras ***!!!

I think that's pushing it. Probably more like low 15s imo. Well anyways their is no way they are running that now(mad old). Depends what he has by a "JDM" motor. If he still has that stock 7M-GTE that blows headgaskets every 2 mins(exxageration) then you'll probably win. If by JDM swap he got a 1JZ or something of the sort then you might have your hands full.

watch out if he has the 2JZ swap though, the Mk III is lighter than the Mk IV, and if that swap was done, then it's going to be a screamer

Based on the mods in your sig you're gonna get handled!!! The 7m-gte is no slouch. But if the car has a 1jzgtte like I suspect then it's probably not stock either. Stock 1jz's are good to over 450 on the twins and can make over 700 on the stock block. PROVEN by a few of my buddies in PR. The 7M-GTE is the first import to win pinks "ALL OUT". The car is a mid 10 second daily driver and retains many of it's stock components. I know the guy who owns that car. He bought one of my cars for his next project. Basically you nee to see this car run, or get a better idea of what he's bringing to the table. All in all I think you're in for an uphill battle with this one.

I raced a nearly stock one in my stock Z and beat it, so if you have some decent bolt-ons, I'd say you have a fighting chance....
