34 Gtt V Supra Tt

Must have been some sort of camera trick...

The Supra bet the GTR quite easily. Maybe just a better driver?

i think they said at the start the supra had real good tyres or something, it was in the comments on the youtube page, which would make sense, and seems quite fitting for the result.

i am a supra fan personally, but i still found it a bit of a shock for it to beat the GTR so easily

I am one too mate. f**kin love them.

Can tyres really do that much of a difference? I've never driven by myself let alone drive on a track so I wouldn't have a clue. The Supra beats it stock for stock, but once the GTR gets some upgrades, I know who I'll be going for.

Yes

the other thing you have to take into account is that when you look at the specs on paper you see 1/4 mile and 0-100kmh specs. is this a true indication of which is quicker on a track? no. the gtr has 4wd so its 1/4 mile and 0-100 times are always going to be better. so a good set of tyres on the supra would just make it even. but it showed that in a straight line they are pretty much even, if not a little bit leaning towards the supra.

another good thing about the supra is that it has a square motor. 86mm x 86mm bore/stroke. the skyline motors are far from square. a square motor gives you a good combination of power and torque. and even the stroker kits for the rb26 don't make it square. they still have a shorter stroke than the 2jz, so they will rev higher, but not make as much torque.

OS RB30 kit is 86 by 86

Look another VS thread !

Well I don't know..... if you go on a skyline forum and ask if a skyline is better than a supra........oooh my brain hurts.. must drink more gatoraid.

I suggest that only a ninja can reveal the true answer and if you like this thread the odds are you may be ...... a ninja!

You must have real ultimate power !

I dont know where people get 50k price tags on for a supra. There a excellent examles of 97+ VVTI manual's for between 25-30k and anyone trying to get more is dreamng unless you go for an 01-02 model which can still be had for less than 35k.

There is less aftermarket support for the VVTI 2JZ but there are people who have experience with them and have achieved good results. In saying that, a low km 96- model will be a great base and the differences are only subtle unlike comparing r33-r34.

Why bother comparing built RB strokers with the the 2JZ, the kit itself would pay for a reasonable sized single conversion on a 2JZ with all supporting mods. By the way the stock valve train is good for 8000rpm reliably, any more and a valve spring upgrade will be necessary. Value for money the supra shits on the 34, the overall expense in getting the same performance and reliability totally outweighs any financial sense. Get the Nissan if you are a Nissan fan and cant stand the Toyota though if you are not brand biased then get the toyota as even at your goal of 300+rwkw it will be a much stronger and more reliable base overall, rb25's are on the edge at 300rwkw with stock internals and this is where the 2JZ is just coming to life.
