1994 Toyota Supra - The Legend Lives On
They Created It, They Killed It, But The Supra Still Lives
Photography by Henry Z. Dekuyper
Aside from the improved stance that comes with most aftermarket suspension, the KYB shocks and Blitz Super Traction springs that sit on all four corners of Murata's Supra keep the Toyota planted firmly as the boost gauge comes alive. Delve deeper and you'll find the Supra's driveline has also received attention in the form of a carbon fiber driveshaft and a TRD limited-slip-differential. Murata is well aware that winding it up can be a lot of fun, but slowing it down in a tight spot can often overwork the factory braking system. To compensate, the OE equipment was ditched in favor of TT calipers, Power Slot rotors, TRD HPZ pads and stainless-steel brake lines.
There you have it. As we mentioned, Murata pulled no punches decking out this awesome street car in the very best the aftermarket has to offer. Although no true horsepower figures were available at the time of our shoot, you can be rest assured this is one highway prowler you'd best not mess with. Stoplight-to-stoplight or on an open stretch of road, the force-fed, inline six, rear-drive that goes by the name "Supra" lives on as a force to be reckoned with.
