Yes and no. Power potential of the Supra is the same or better, GTR has 4WD, various pros and cons. TT Supra is definitely better than a GTST-T or GTT, no question.
Hey I'm not bagging you (sorry if you thought that), it's just that a lot of people (me included) could not afford a R34 GTT so we go for the older cars.

That leaves you several thousand for those "wear and tear" issues.
The NA Supra is cheaper, so you have more money left over.
But being NA, you have less power potential.
Plus, with $30,000 you can afford a TT Supra <-- I'd get this
I am quite chilled out. You seem to be dazzled by the "extra" 4 hp. But 4hp is hardly *more*. LOL. I'm really not impressed by an engine with more displacement making the same power as a smaller, turbo engine.
It's probably sadder that the R34 GTR is not significantly more powerful than the R32 GTR. And now the fastest new skyline is the equivalent of a GTS.
And you're comparing an RB20DE to a VQ35DE????
You'd hope so after all these years. And they don't make more power than a GTT. Get your facts straight.
It's not as though the VQ is huge leap forward. I'd like to see how much power a RB35DE made.
I guess it doesn't help that the V35's are the equivalent of the R32 GTS, R33 GTS and R34 GT - i.e. the bottom rung NA model. Except there's no higher models to inspire me.
