Non turbo supras will run mid to high 14s stock... thats not too shabby from a n/a 3L.... they feel alright to drive... but there is no way i could handle owning one, you'd forever be missing the feeling of the RZ..

Buy my R32 :D

you are eventually gonna get pissed off with the NA supra!

My friend got a 1993 1 with full veilside kit, a few engine mods, exhaust etc! He can manage 119rwkw but in the end i always end up kicking his ass in a race!!

Now he is looking at twin turboing it!:lol:

Well to answer your question about N/A supra they are nice to drive, problems spliting dashes around the top vents and make sure their is a radio in there if not be prepaired to buy the a/c heater amp for $1100 i have sold so many for this reason .

its bolted to the radio.And you are buying a 2 seater as the only thing that will fit in the back is 2 babys.

Speaking of Supras and Skylines. On saturday night I let my friend (who owns a targa n/a Supra) drive my skyline for the first time. He has been thinking of buying a Twin turbo supra for a while.

Last night now he tells me he once he has sold his old Supra he now wants to buy an R34 GT-T.

Skyline Conversion operation complete success!!

Hi Smoothline

I've sold my modified 95 Skyline for an N/A 96 Supra as well. Haven't looked back ever since. The Supra is definately a nicer car to drive in not to mentioned it's nicer looking :)

As for insurance the NA Supra cost me just as much to insured as a turbo Skyline which is $831 per year.

Enjoy your Supra :)

      You are correct, the earlier the torque, the earlier things snap

      Gents, it will be getting the MX5 Mania kit and the 2.5 will be staying where it is My query was about the 0.64 or the 0.86, whilst the 0.64 might spool a bit faster, would the 0.86 be better IRT EGT and mechanical sympathy, with only a small difference in spool And as I assume I won't need alot of boost to get to 200kw, probably around 10 psi, and with max rpm at 6500, would high EGT even really be a issue with a 0.64 I'm heading into MX5 Mania at the end of Jan to discuss the install, so any info is welcome prior to that Basically have a chat and book a time so they can throw on the turbo kit, and fit a oil cooler with a thermostat, drive in drive out of course  In other news: just finished cleaning the car inside and out, it's now all ready to get covered in bugs and dirt driving to Goulburn tomorrow to lunch,  and go for a stroll along woolondilly River with the daughter and her boy, and of course, visit my grandcats and my new grandpuppy

      Sounds like it has an actual problem with mode select doors, or something.

      Hope your all having a mean Xmas! If anyone happens to know any trick to using the insanely complex climate control system, I cannot get it to not be on dual zone no matter how many times I deselect it (will say it's not but both vents blow different temps). Also one side is always hot, one always cold 🤷

      I'd be looking at the mentioned EFR kit, room to turn it up if decide on e85 (which we know you will) and be super responsive and fun on the street.
