dragger quicker than carlos's supra? u seen/heard the development they've done on carlos's car? they've been using motion sensors for data logging on the farking suspension! once it run's an 8, carlos is ditching it and starting with a fresh shell (carbon fibre at that), and running a titan 3.4ltr

P.S you didnt hear that from me

No it's not quicker, it could have be IMHO, some american Supra's are still quicker then Carlos's using the 6 spd.. I wasn't aware of the new work done to his though, so i take that back.. for now.

DRAGGER with the 3.4lt would be a monster..

Seems to me given the figures they are quoting as to the greenbacks spent to make the horsepower that you could do it with a gtr and have the best of both worlds. Power and the right car.

those cars are no expense spared though....they were done at millenium and noone cuts corners there...2j's can handle some of those cars power with stock internals...but they have done a full build to be safe...try that with a GTR and you'll be picking up the pieces off the floor. Having said that you're going to spend serious money to get to that level no matter what engine you start with rb26 or 2j.

Better not talk to loud. the maxerarri fits in that mold.

At least they have a VQ which has a bit of punch...

[Nismo_Boy]

come on dude, can u seriously say DAMN isnt all that good?

I'm not really into body kits... I like clean bodys with fender pulls and wrong offset wheels I'm a drift rat remeber.

DAMN does like nice, but I have never been into "show" looking cars.

Agreed. But if i were to do it i would take the concept of the gtr with attessa over the rwd supra any day.

yes, but those yanks are farking crazy lol, and all they do is supras (well alot of them that is)

theres 3 fairly large crates that carlos has, 1 for him, and 2 for his customers

i dare say millenium are going to be a force to reckon with in the next year or so, even more so than they are now

WTF. I thought that look was old school. Thats where i want to head. Oh well, everything old is new again I guess.

yea, but i suppose it depends on a) Your like of the looks of the car and b) your application...I honestly like rwd for playing around, having said that a torque splitter can do that for you...personal preferance I guess.

Those create motors are cheap too... for what you get anyway.

Same again but, i dont think 1000 horsepower could be termed as "playing around"

With that sort of fat i would want as much going for me in the grip and traction department that i could get.

4WD just gets in the way when u want to go QUICK (at the drags that is) look at reece mcgregors gtr, put a high end rwd setup in that, and it'd run hell of a lot quicker times

They're a good workshop and they produce good/reliable cars....I'd trust them with my car and that says a bit as I don't like a lot of workshops. They dyno'd my old 33 and played around with it a bit...Carlo's is always informative and keeps your best interests at heart...it's good to see them doing so well.

[Silver_R34_GT-T]

Hmm i like those supras, apart from the paint job on the white thing.

indeed they are. one thing i didnt like about them, is they werent all that quick in turn arounds.

[Keegs]

I agree with josh...although I like those supras...clean lines, clean bodykits and minimum fuss is where it's at. Nice JDM wheels in a non ricy colour. Days of veilside and chrome wheels are gone...and have been for a while...imo. The show car finish is nice but a subtle yet tough looking car is better.

yea it depends on how busy they are and what your getting done...but I know what you mean...I guess its the price you pay when you take your car to a popular workshop....well that and the actual price hahaha

Its well known that a rear wheel drive drag car set up corectly can launch faster than an all wheel drive job but these guys are talking street cars. You may get a few strange looks cruisin the city with 38 inch slicks and wheelie bars.
