Farewell Skyline, Hello Supra

Hehe... yeah, I know what you mean. I just spent a load of cash on a 15m Nismo limestone wall, but the house just won't run the 1/4 mile any quicker. I'm hoping that the 3" stainless gutter and hi-flow stormwater drain will add a bit of zip though! Wouldn't waste my money on those new Mugen garage doors though - that's just pure rice...

Welcome to the world of Supras and BTW Thanks Jash im glad its not me, i still think i can get 13.9 out of it if all conditions are right

[bully]

No you cant

I don't think there are any diff between n/a & tt supra, only when you look at the engine, or at least look at the dashboard instruments then you'll be able to pick it up. Also the gear patterns. the TT has 6 fwd gears while non turbo only have 5, but can sometimes have 6 if upgraded.

The various body kits that ppl put on their supras will also make it even harder to tell, as a tough look supra can turn out to be an n/a, while a very plain looking one could indeed be a twin turbo.

I've had a NA supra with exhaust and pod go 187rwhp.

The same as a VS 5.0L Clubsport Commonwhore on my

Dyno so valves are a good sub for cubes.

Hi Steve,

Is that a stock standard N/A Supra with only pod and exhaust ?? Any engine management ?

I'll be very happy if mine is anywhere close to that ..

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 ??

Hi All,

Now that I've getting myself a Supra, anyone interested in an unloved R33 ???

All I can say is I an SOOOOOOOOO jealous! I am a poser at heart, and I love Supra's.

Not sure that I can forgive you for being sick of your skyline after only 3 months though... OK you twisted my arm... take me for a spin in the Supra and I may forgive you... Let me drive and you may not forgive me...

I plan on a Supra next. Don't know much about them though. Finances forbid any purchasers any time soon. Mods on the house...I seriously think I spend more time in my car than my house though. Hmmmmmm Prorities. Serious meditation session required.

[adam 32]

as long as the non-turbo aspect doesnt piss you off then its a good looking car. personally i couldnt go from a turbo to non-turbo

[N I B]

No management just a little more timing.

[33Spec2]

Yeah nice car im sooooo jeleous bring it on a cruise so i can see!

I think most skyliners would hav a supra if they had 2 choose another car!

Hehee .. just sell your R33 and get an N/A Supra as well, I don't know much about them either

Actually, I got tired of it within a month I thought it looked pretty bland compared to a Supra, GTO and NSX (My opinion only of course!! ). Anyway, when I saw this Supra I knew I had to have it .. Hope to keep the Supra for at least 2 years before looking at an NSX next.

Yes, I have to go on one of these cruises one day and see if the Supra can keep up with the GTS-T ..

Darn !!! I wished my girlfriend feel the same as you guys !! She thinks the Supra is UGLY and has a hugh arse :shake:, which I have to agree because the longer I looked at it, the bigger the arse appeared to be ..

Well, the GTS-T is on a similar price scale as the N/A Supra. The question is, can you live without a TURBO ?? I can, because I drive like Ms Daisy.

[N I B]

Sorry it must carry a Nissan badge! If i had to have a big bum

sports car I'd go a Z32 but must admit to loving the NSX.

MMMMM Twin turboed NSX, only problem is there is nothing

better to hope for from there exept Maybe a CLK GTR Merc?

[hippy]

6 speed manual automatic

what is that?? tiptronic?? or whatever they're called??

[Nizmo]

haha SimpleLogick your girlfriend sounds like she has the same taste in cars as me - my ex wanted "us" to buy a Supra - i told him it reminds me of a goldfish for some reason - and it does have a huge backside.

Supras are nice yes but for some reason i just couldnt give up my R33 GTST for one.

hippy = i think he is referring to triptronic yes.

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

Stock HSV pull 13sec 1/4mile and the new ls1 GTO and GTS Coupe r in the low 13

[N I B]

Stock HSV pull 14s and are still based an Taxis.

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Soulja,

I don't want to dissapoint you but if you've ever been to the motorplex then you won't see any stock HSV's pull 13's, they need some work done to do that, and seeing as the GTO's haven't done much better then I doubt they would be in a low 13.

See'ya:burnout:

Steve : you can always get a Hyundai and stick on a Z badge . Actually, I better NOT make fun of Hyundai because I think the Tuberon (sp?) is not a bad looking car at all ..

The NSX is a reality but the Merc CLK is a "wet dream"

Having said that this is my wet dream

In term of car bum :

NSX = Kyllie Minoque

Z32 = Anna Nicole Smith

Supra = Rosanne Arnolds

hippy : I think it's a typo, it's just a 6-sp manual. Not tiptronic.

Nizmo : My gf's idea of a nice car is a Honda Prelude, any thing sportier than that is a goon car ..
