Always loved the sound of the 1 & 2jz. But, I have only ever seen 1 supra that I think looked alright.. They're just so ugly! IMO

Was just flicking through a perforamce imports magazine.. Think a couple of issues back they had an R34 with a 2jz track car.. Haha

Skylines and 2JZ have been done quite a few times... I remember standing next to the drift 34 at WTAC and looking at the turbo then realising it was on the wrong side :P

Love the people whom say the Supra is a good looking car when most have already stated it's ugly as sin.

I'd go the R34 personally. The Supra has a better engine for deriving the maximum amount of power but that's about it.

Have you driven a car with 300kw as a daily? You wouldn't want a 400kw+ Supra as a daily, would just be an absolute dog to drive.

High powered cars dont have to be cops to drive! You can make nice responsive 350-400kw dailys out of either car i reckon!

I own a R32 GT-R personally. But I can see your line of thinking - because the R33 is widely considered to be ugly too. Never heard the styling of the R33 and good taste mentioned in the same sentence.

If you care how old your car is, care if it creaks and rattles etc and want reliability that comes with a newer car (parts other than engine strength) get the r34. If you don't care about any of that stuff, and just want the best engine for power possible, supra. It will decimate all with about 15-20k of parts in it on the tab at Harry's.

R34's are the most aggressive looking out of the 3.

R32's have nice streamline looks + classic / original.

R33's just have a bulbous look up front.

Supra is f**king gorgeous. Damn skyline forum...

R34 GTT Vs Supra RZ

R34:
Tiny brakes
Good looks
More space inside for rear people

More "modern" interior
Deeper boot

400rwhp is about limit for internals (Give/take)

Bit lighter

Supra:
Beautiful to look at
Huge brakes
2JZ - need I say more?

6 speed getrag
Driver focused interior (love/hate, I love)
Shallow, wide-ish boot

FWIW, I had a supra with hks coilies and it handles so damn well.. Far better than my stupid S2K currently*.


*May be unfair cause S2k has stock suspension.. I hate it most cause of electric PS.

Every time I see a 34 I complain to God for giving me the gift of sight.

      V36 wreck (edited from V37 by mod)

      I tried my best, well I see how it is though... It's time to be ruthless! I'll up my bid with a JVC sub and an amp to run it, 8 stainless steel drink coasters with a rubber backing, and a photo of Tom Cruise. Oh, I can increase the cash portion by 20 cents if that helps.

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Or if it's grey, is it watery? Does it do it after you've been for like an hour long drive it will still do it, or just near the start of the trip? As GTS said, does it seem like oil (blue), water (white/grey) or fuel (black)? Sometimes the colour can be hard to see clearly too for what it is, as GTS says, what's it smell like?

      ugently need expert / experienced opinion

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I wonder if part of it has to do with when you've each bought the kits. I honestly have the feeling that the silicon joiners in the 2000s were actually better quality than most of what you can find these days. Even in the same brands. Everyone racing to the cheapest price while still trying to make profit means lower quality parts. For coolant, I personally would be going with rubber, OR, converting the radiator and engine to use the huge AN fittings hose for radiators.

      Shifting questions

      By dbm7 · Posted

      If shift solenoid A is bad, that explains limp mode --- now you're in the same position as I mentioned previously, in that the next step is to confirm loom/wiring integrity from TCU to gearbox connector with a multimeter (the TCU cannot detect a broken wire, which can happen ..ie; rodent damage, loom rubbed through)...and then finally measure resistance (at the gearbox connector) for shift solenoid A ... ...once you confirm shift solenoid A is bad (open circuit, really low or greater than 40ohm resistance), then it's a job ; you have buy a complete solenoid set, get under the car and drop transmission oil pan, and remove valvebody assembly (the solenoids sit on top), replace solenoid set, and reassemble....it's not exactly a fun task, but readily doable.

      Is it oil smoke or fuel smoke? They smell different.
