That SUPRA was built purly for the top-speed trials a few years back. They use the 3S-GTE because it sits further back in the engine bay for weight distribution and centre of gravity. Also if you are going to compare that to a V8 supercar be realistic. The SUPRA is built for straight line top speend and stability, a V8 supercar is designed for circuit racing. If the SUPRA was set up for circuit racing you would find it would be to close to call.
