Supra Vs Skyline

[funkymonkey]

guys, try not to get all emotional over this shit. If this turns into another Nissan vs Toyota bashing session then the thread will be removed.

[fatz]

i love it

just stire it up and watch it boil

yea baby

r31 number one

[elGTR]

(pot stiring)

if those 2jz's are so good how come Vlrb30's with less money spent on the vl as the tojo seem to fair just as well unless the 2j has half a morgatage attached ... I say well done toyota for having a go nice engine but clogged up breathing and a dating car.... now piss of back to rally,,,, jokes

Im yet to see a stock VLrb30 pull out 447rwkw stock, which shows that vlrb30 have to spend half a mortgage themselves

[yogi000]

which one gets the chicks with the big tits??? thats the one i want

Roflmao @ this .... nah buddy supras pull the bimbos ... gtrs pull the smart sultrie sexier ones ... Like when you whooop a supra and his girfriend asks you to take her for a spin in that godzilla please ! ... shatters the poor fella both ways ... happened a few times on cruises now

(pot stiring)

[N1GTR]

There is a mines r34 copy (probably the closest thing you could get in aus) at autostyle. I went and saw it the other day - i think they want 160k for it

Also do your research the HKS GTR has craked well into the 7's.

I have done a search can't find anythig

veilside is also in the 7 second zone now too, just a few hundredths behind the HKS car.

Cause a quality girlfriend would get out of your car and run off with another man cause his car was faster....

About the kw v time thing. Maybe my views are distorted from much time spent on supraforums when I had my supra. I just remember seeing some stupid dyno sheets with 600hp+ and they could manage a low 11 at best. It make sense they have good times if they really do make the power, just seems alot of supra boys use magic dyno's.

I am NOT hating on 2J's, I owned a na version and loved it (although it needed a turbo pretty bad, lol) but you see ALOT of this sorta stuff from supra owners. This image is a guy selling his car. He is proud of it

I could be missing something, someone may have an explanation, but I have seen other like this, yet less extreme.

Maybe its not the engine, rather the stigma of supra, which says, ALL SHOW.

[noise]

I am sorry but in general supras are ugly ugly cars.

its like a moving flashback to 1993.

saying that I have seen a few extremly hot ones, but they are so rare its barely worth mentioning.

Have you heard of wheel spin? don't just look at the times also look at the mph, at times the time a car pulls it is not a true representation of what the car is really capable of. If a car can ran 11's but have very high mph it could of been wheel spinning most of the way (using shit tyres) which means that the car has shit loads of potential using better rubber and or suspension.

Cheers.

Come back and tell us when a mere 600hp Supra goes around Tsukuba in 57 seconds.

I love Supras,but come on,the GTR is in a different league.

All Sydneykid was saying is the Supra should be compared to other RWD cars,not the immortal GTR.

You dont need to defend your Supras honor,it is an incredible car,its just not a GTR.

Great power figures by the way.

[Slide]

"its so fast even a dead man will scream" :lol:

thats a funny quote

[dangerman4]

was it just me or was the stock supra with a bigger turbo and a f**ked diff, only 4 seconds slower then the million dollar gtr around that track

whats that about?

[alpharisc]

I am not trying to defend supra's, I am just saying, if you are going to make points, at least make them worth while. Also, the GT series was dominated by Supra's, but, that is kinda unfair in saying, because the GTR's couldnt use 4WD, and the Supra's didnt use the 2JZ-GTE. I like the GTR, I have had 3 skylines, the skyline is a more 'throwable' car, but, when it comes to top speed, and handling at top speed, the supra feels much more at home than the GTR (that is stock for stock), after modifications, well, I guess it comes down to has the biggest bank account, and the best team of engineers really...

yep ur right mate, stock engine with bigger turbo, and had a wornout lsd. Still didn't do too bad. I think i got the vid some where, i'll post it soon.

4 seconds arond at 57 second track is a farken long time

[gtr660hp]

I have been lucky enough to be in the passenger seat of a MINES customer car in Osaka ,(R34GTR) stage 2 for a short drive and nothing comes close to it. No car I have ever been in gets close and Ive been lucky to drive a V8 supercar in Oz and also driven Lambo's and Ferrari's but they all are slow compared to the Mines. But >>>I have seen some very quick Supra's at time attack days in Japan too-but they never get the times of the top tuned GTR's like Garage Saurus, Mines, M speed, Top Secret etc

If ppl have seen the HKS R34 driven at the same track alongside the Mones car, did anyone else notice something about the way they got down the straight. Surely this is the reason you can attribute much of the Mines cars performance ...anyone have times of it around Suzuka etc. Im betting that whislt it is still an amazing car, perhaps it wont look as good on bigger/faster tracks

[NISMO^BABY]

both are real good car..

[m&m]

The head to head at Tsukuba recently in a 5 lap race,the Mines car had a best of 57sec and the HKS was 1.01.

The Mines car is specifically built to be fast at Tsukuba,although I'm sure they could build a fast car to suit any track.

yes mines gtr shits all over the Hks gtr, but than again it is not an easy task to beat a million dollar car specially built to be fast at Tsukuba.
