I've got big respect for toyota engines but I would have to agree that supras are for posers. In the 'laide there is too many piece of s#it non turbo automatic, crap chrome rimmed, bodykitted supras going around. You wouldnt call a tt supra ricey but in my opinion their image is tainted by the before mentioned versions.

Taking into consideration the insurance cost of the GTR, i'd go for the 34gt-t. Black, no spoiler, dumped. So suttle yet so sweet. Prime candidit for a sleeper... or if you like an oriental flavour they have great rice potential.

with your price limit! ( looks like 35-40k) you couldnt get a nice supra ... possibly stock (YUCK!).

Just go around and get yourself a GT-R.

ever thought of importing a really really clean R32 GT-R? spending 35k will get you something awsome!

I found a 96 Toyota Supra Twin Turbo in the Melbourne Trading post. Had a nice body kit and mad wheels. Think the engine was stock. He was only asking $29000, i dont know if its just me but i found that to be one of the best sales that ive seen. You can get a nice supra for under $30G'z. The only thing that bothers me about supras is that toyota was too lazy to make it a AWD, which means that the GT-R will whip its arse. Go for the GT-R.

Hi,

You definately have no idea what you are talking about, I own an R33 GTR I have occassionally raced my friend's tt Supra and he whoops my arse, Im infront 1st 2nd , after that he eats me, I also know another guy making 410 rwkw making 10.9 secs on stock internals, and yes the GTR can make 11.90 secs on stock internals but not reliably, I have already broken two boxes, yes Im with you on that one man, as soon as I have 47k I'll pick up one Supra and go crazy on mods and not worry about my box... good luck.

YES i'VE SEEN THAT VIDEO AS WELL BUT NO THE CARS DONT SEEM TO BE STANDARD, LOOK AT THE TIME UNDERNEATH ON THE LEFT HAND CORNER, (YOU TALKING ABOUT THE WHITE gtr AND THE SILVER supra) THEY ARE NOT STANDARD, IF MY 33 WOULD LAUNCH LIKE THAT STANDARD IT WOULD BE COOL, BUT I HAVE TO LOOK AFTER THE GEAR BOX SO I CAN SELL IT.

      V35 Overheat + Coolant Boil & Overflow + Engine not Starting

      By carnoobb · Posted

      Hey all, my 2004 Nissan Skyline 350GT overheated the other day with coolant boiling and leaking out of the coolant reservoir when I was parking. So today, I started it up again just to see if it was a thermostat/head gasket issue. After about 20 mins of running, temps were normal again, no coolant was leaking out and the upper reservoir hose was warm but my engine suddenly cut off. I checked the oil dipstick and cap when it was running and there was no white foamy residue and the exhaust did not have white smoke. I tried starting up the car again but it would only crank, similar to when I had a camshaft sensor issue just that now there’s no check engine light on the dash. Any ideas? Unfortunately I don’t have an OBD2 that can read the Nissan's programme.

      Rb head oil drain dimensions

      By Papichulo96 · Posted

      Bump on this to not make another post, had a ‘head drain’ leak on me and have the engine out as we speak. Planning on just putting a new freeze plug back in , plug the tapped holes and just be done with that headache.    Now I still want to relieve pressure to allow oil to pass down the blocks returns easier. I’ve seen catch cans with multiple vents help folks with this issue on this forum.  I’m wanting to make my own. I have some pictures here of my setup if anyone can help how I should plumb and design the catch can I would deeply appreciate it !   rb25 Oil upgrades: 1.0mm restrictor n1 pump/billet gears extended crank collar  extended sump with trap doors/w welded fitting

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The Frenchy's kit is the way to go forward. A modern compressor that weighs about 1/2 as much, is at least twice as efficient, and will do a good job on R134a. And of course the kit has everything else you need to connect it up and have it work properly.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By Zabuza · Posted

      Hey all , I am in the process of having the AC system in my r32 GTST converted from r12 to r134a and I’m being told my compressor has gone bad and I will need a new one. I was wondering if anybody has any suggestions for what is the best route to go aside from dropping $1500 on a new oem one? I did see that Frenchy’s performance garage offers a kit to mount a Toyota compressor, has anybody actually used this kit on their car? Or is there anywhere I could purchase just a clutch? Any help is appreciated.

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, your RB20 ECU loom won't have wires for the boost solenoid, that boost sensor, and possibly one or two other things. There could be differences in seemingly random things like the charcoal canister purge solenoid, because the 25DET has to handle boost in the vacuum system and the 20DE does not. I don't know - I haven't looked. It is very likely that all the most important things are same-same, being the main sensors like AFM, CAS, etc, and the injectors and ignition. Not that you'll need the AFM for the Haltech anyway. I would suggest that you would seriously want to sit down with the pinouts for both ECUs and just go through them and highlight green what is the same, orange what is different/missing, and make a plan from there. It's not going to be difficult. It will either be the same or need to be fixed.
