Farewell Skyline, Hello Supra

[simplelogik]

Yes after 3 months in my Skyline I thought it's time for a change, and got myself an N/A Supra.

Anyone here know what's the performance of a N/A Supra vs a GTST ?? Probably a mismatch ??

the n/a is quite respectable but the gtst should take it.

Oh yeah if I squint hard enouogh I can see the similarity

My girlfriend described it as a Frog from Star Wars (GT-Wing)

Hmm looks as though the N/A Supra will be an easy target for those Commodores now

Questionable move there dude, NA Supras are a high 14 car if you're lucky. Worst thing is you can maybe screw another 10-15hp out of them easily and thats it.

Yeah, I know .. I didn't buy an N/A car and expect it to be fast. I just thought that there are too may Skylines in the street and that the Supra looks a lot nicer, my opinion only of sourse

As long as it's as fast as my girlfriend's 2000 Prelude, I'm happy, because the only person I'll probably race against would be her

[Psiker]

Still though. high 14 for a na car is awesome

what does ur average N/A v8 pull? with litle to no tuning as this car has had.

Jash- could u posibly approximate what a TT MkIV with an auto should run down the qtr. (stock) i just want to see if my dad is driving bad or the limits of the car are about 14.11

thanx - Psiker

Oh I thought you're just squiting too hard ..

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Very nice looking Supra. I think the NA Supras have 178kw, which is not bad, and a mid 14 1/4 time on street tyres. They have the looks but will not be as quick as the GTS-t.

See'ya:burnout:

man n/a?

wheres the fun in that?

nice car

but i reckon the main reason for owning a jap import

is the fun you get out of it by moding it?

poser hahah

nah nice wheels mate - but arent u going to get bored of an N/A - know i would

[C-Red]

Psiker,

About the best you could expect from a TT Auto would be low 14s, so yeah your old boy is going OK.

[skyzerr33]

adrian u can mod n/a's its just done differently than trbo cars and for less gain in some area.

I think this is a "chick magnet" rather than a Commodore killer

Anyway, here is the specs

1996 Toyota Supra SZ-R

3.0L non-turbo

6 speed manual automatic

Volk TE37 alloy wheels

aftermarket body kit

GT rear wing (original included also)

aftermarket exhaust & air filter

aftermarket suspension

Bride drivers seat

Recaro passengr seat

steering wheel

CD player & subwoofer

Does anyone know if you can tell the difference between a TT Supra and an N/A, just by looking at the exterior ??

Bye

Richard.

Definately a poser car !!!

But as for being bored I ws actually getting bored with the R33 GTST .. I bought the Supra because of the way it looks and the style, which in my opinion is much nicer than the GTST.

Anyway, probably keep this for 2 years and then get an NSX. Now that's a car that no one woul call boring !!!

Bye

Hehe I don't waste money on making my car faster, because even my 1st car, a 79 Mazda 323 is capable of going faster than the legal speed limit ..

Anyway, the only "mods" that I spend money on these days is my house, and after spending 10s of thousand of dollars, the bloody thing is still no quicker than when I first bought it ..
