ICU Racing



On March 10th, 2025, a thrilling street race took place in Mexico, pitting the iconic Toyota MK4 Supra against the Ford Mustang GT in an import versus domestic showdown. The MK4 Toyota Supra, favored by its loyalists, is a rear-wheel-drive coupe originally equipped with a standard inline 6-cylinder engine and a 6-speed manual transmission. However, this particular Supra has undergone significant modifications, including a professional build of its 2JZ engine with a powerful turbocharger and upgraded intercooler, making it capable of impressive horsepower. This race marked its maiden voyage as the owner aimed to fine-tune the performance.

On the other side, the Ford Mustang GT, coated in gloss black, features a naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8 engine and a 10-speed automatic transmission. Not satisfied with the stock performance, the Mustang’s owner enhanced it with an ESS Tuning Gen 3 supercharger kit and a pulley upgrade, resulting in substantial performance enhancements.

As the race unfolded, spectators eagerly anticipated the clash between these two formidable machines, each representing their respective automotive cultures. The excitement was palpable as they prepared for a series of acceleration tests ranging from 60 to 150 mph on the streets, showcasing the sheer power and engineering prowess behind both vehicles.
