It starts the way the best MkIV Supra stories do: with a car that deserved more than a “build”—it deserved a full reset.
This Supra is a ground-up restoration and re-engineering, executed with the same obsession you feel the moment you pop the hood. Nothing was spared, skipped, or left “good enough.” Every gasket, seal, trim piece, grommet, and fastener was approached with a simple standard: restore what should be original, improve what should be better, and update what time has outgrown. The result is a Supra that looks factory-clean at first glance—until you realize it’s anything but ordinary.
At the heart of the car sits a 3.4L stroker with 10:1 compression, built to deliver brutal power without losing the sharp, responsive character that makes these cars worth chasing in the first place. Breathing is handled by a Stage 3 ported head and GSC S2 cams, giving it the kind of top-end urgency that doesn’t fade when the road opens up. Forced induction comes from a Garrett G42-1200—an appropriately serious turbo matched with an HKS exhaust manifold and HKS wastegate, and fed through a Hypertune intake manifold. Charge temps are kept in check by an ETS 5-inch intercooler, because at this level, consistency is the difference between “fast” and “finished.”
Control is just as intentional as the parts list. AEM Infinity electronics tie the package together, with a flex-fuel system and a horsepower switch that lets the car shape-shift depending on the mission. It was dyno tuned, street fine tuned, and dialed in not just for a dyno number, but for real drivability—throttle, transitions, and the kind of response that makes you want to take the long way home.
Power is only impressive if the rest of the drivetrain can take it, so Supra-Works treated the supporting cast with the same seriousness. An RPS triple-disc clutch handles the hit. The V160 transmission has been resealed and refreshed. A TRD differential puts the power down with authority. And because a truly great car doesn’t just accelerate—it communicates—this one was corner balanced, aligned, and set up to feel planted and precise rather than merely “capable.”
The restoration work is the quiet flex. The interior and exterior were comprehensively brought back to standard—better than new in the ways that matter—while maintaining original Toyota glass all around. The electrical system was updated with the latest components to match modern expectations without compromising the car’s character. The engine bay, meanwhile, received extensive modifications for both function and finish, presenting a level of cleanliness and intention that doesn’t happen by accident.
This is the Supra that doesn’t just turn heads—it stops conversations. It earned Best of Show at the Tri-State Toyota Meet in 2021, and it continues to feel like a benchmark build: the kind that resets what people think “done right” looks like.
In current form, it’s making 1200 wheel horsepower—and somehow the most impressive part is how cohesive it feels. It isn’t a pile of parts chasing a number. It’s a fully realized MkIV Supra, engineered to be driven, restored to be kept, and built the way only Supra-Works can build them.
Recently refreshed here at Supra-Works in New York, it’s now headed to its new owner—destined for an exquisite, top-tier private collection where it will fit in effortlessly, yet still stand out as the kind of car you can’t help but look at twice.
