Also a lot of people buy uk spec supras and put in the 2JZ engines that actually make the car cheaper to insure rather than buy a import then insure it, they been doing that on mr2's for ages and i'm sure others in clubs have too.
Anyway check this site out.
I think you are getting a bit confused fella!!! ALL MkIV (JZA-80) supras have a 2JZ engine from the factory, no matter if they are turbo or N/A, bought in the UK, US or Japan (or anywhere!).
a uk gallon is bigger than a US gallon
a UK 100bhp is not bigger smaller less powerful than a US 100bhp
However it can be measured in differant ways or at differant points on a vechile but 100 is 100 speaking to the man in the pub
a hp is the amount of work a horse could do back in the day.
now having 1200hp is pointless without torque.
its torque that wins races not hp!!
but generally they follow along a related gradient.. but its why you have rice burners and muscle car fans all over the place. and is why i know i would rather have torque for a street car, and something jap + turbo for something to mess around in
