dont forget to take into account

-torque

-gear ratios

-driver skill

It's not just power that makes all the difference. I dont know the specs on supra's but I know toyota makes some good powerful motors. Common sense though tells me an R33 gtst will rip an NA supra (if both drivers of equal skill).

EDIT: NA supra's would be doing 14's down the 1/4. stock.

I am quite a heavy guy so i must weigh my car down even more, but i can not see myself doing quarter in 14s. I haven't raced a stock r33 yet, but i don't mind trying. Even as owner, i doubt i can really do that well against it. Don't get me wrong, its not slow.. but i think compared to most of the cars i go out with, the power output is too little. Fortunately its still be best looking car in all the DRD's. :) :shake:

As a comparison tho, i have heard it beat stock 180sx and r32 with exhaust and air pod. I beat a charade too!!! ( i dunno why he tried to race me) hmm... i dun have many other kill stories ..hhehe

just my 2 zloti.

can't argue with that one ... most girls don't even know what a turbo is ... i dont' even think a gtr can compare to a supra in a girls mind ... beats us in that department :D

I saw a NA supra (new shape) running the quarter up her in NT. He was so ashamed he actually pulled the number plates of his car before he ran 16.2s over the quarter, either he was useless or the NA supra is all show and no go. I heard that later on in the evening some mates pulled up next to him in a 100 series turbo diesel land cruiser wanting to race him at a set of lights but he didnt want to :P

If Im not mistaken, NA supras run the 100 in high 6's and the quarter in about 15sec. Meaning the're around about on par with stock r32 gts-t's and a bit quicker than stock NA r33's (0-100 in low 7's/ mid 15's quarter mile).

I saw the stats in one of the import performance mags a little while back, comparing NA supras with r33 GTS's.

HPI tested NA supra with NA R33 Skyline and Supra came out on top. Probably cause the supra has 500cc more capacity.

Comparing NA Supra to R33 GTS25t ain't exactly a fair match up. Supra's got more displacement, but a turbo will more than make up for the missing 500cc's in the R33.

On top of that modifying scope in the Supra is a little narrow.

    • I'm late to the party on this one but good to see common sense has prevailed and the turbo kit is coming. 
    • She's looking good Greg. Colour suits it perfectly 👍
    • I had a look at the FAB9 EFR kit, around $8500 AU before delivery, so add in shipping, installation, consumables and tuning, I believe the price difference would be negligible  And whilst I am paying top dollar at MX5 Mania, if I have any issues with the kit they are local for support,  and from my experience, will happily go out of their way to help, hell, I've purchased parts from them and asked "how do I install or remove parts" and they have fitted a few of them for free, this means more to me than saving a few thousand dollars And yes, 99% of the time I just plod around in the car, that may change once I start hearing turbo whooshy noises, but, as I have 3 family members is the constabulary, even when I'm up it, it is only up to the speed limit, or occasionally, but rarely, overtaking on the Hwy (I just plod in the left lane typically and enjoy the drive) Plus the kids would never let it go if I got booked speeding, Jackie is constantly getting critiqued by the kids about her driving, which I think is hilarious, and tell them that she is "bringing shame to our family", so heaven forbid if I ever got done speeding, after all my mouthing off about her driving, I would never live it down, and it would be another thing she would bring up any chance she got Like the time I got drunk about 15 years ago and fell out of a cab, which gets brought up at least a few times every year since it happened Good times
    • True, might get it looked at. Found out you can in fact flatten the 12v battery relatively easily too the other day (kids lefts the hazards on) so meaning to get that checked in the new year. What's odd is it'll blow cold from both vents if you have the ac down as low as poss (18), but anything else the passenger one blows warmish. Also has been summer since I got it obvs but noticed it didn't seem to want to blow hot last night when we had a cold snap.
