In this thrilling episode of Tj Hunt's automotive escapades, we witness the audacious acquisition of a charred Mark 4 Supra, acquired amidst a fierce bidding war for a hefty $50,000. Despite the steep price tag, the Supra reveals a treasure trove of aftermarket upgrades under its scorched exterior. From a front mount and Rays wheels to a replica TRD wing and a damaged engine harness, the team embarks on a journey to uncover the true potential of this fiery beast.
Delving into the heart of the beast, the team uncovers a Comp Turbo with an HKS cover, raising questions about the car's power capabilities and drivetrain resilience. As they inspect the fuel system and coil setup, the possibility of significant power output becomes tantalizingly apparent. With HKS cam gears, a sizable intercooler, and a Bosch 450 L fuel pump in the mix, the team braces for the potential of unearthing hidden performance gems within the Supra's engine bay.
Despite the challenges posed by the automatic drivetrain and the car's fire-ravaged history, the team remains undeterred in their quest to revive this phoenix from the ashes. Armed with curiosity and a keen eye for detail, they meticulously examine each component, from stock cams to ARP head studs, in search of clues to the Supra's true potential. As they prepare to delve deeper into the engine's mysteries in the next episode, the team's optimism and determination set the stage for a high-octane automotive adventure filled with twists, turns, and the promise of uncovering the ultimate jackpot hidden within the burnt husk of the Mark 4 Supra.
