Whats the mpg / drivability ect like for a weekend car http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/STUNNING-W...item4abf0066a0 |
that looks awful, what a way to spoil a supra
|
My old boss used to have one fcuking fast one of the quickest cars ive ever driven
|
That truly does look sh1t.
|
Do you think you could fit some blacked out ex-M3 rear lights to that? would definately complete it! :lol1:
|
Ok so its not to most of you lots taste so lets get back to the questions please :thumb:
|
I looked at some twin turbos earlier this year, but couldn't find 'the one', ended up buying a Merc instread, but would still have a Supra TT if the right one came along next time I am looking. Surprisingly good to drive (given they are nearly 20 years old) and they don't hang around, but they are a big car... not as chuckable as a Scoob.... different sort of car though!
|
i never owned one but a work mate did.....................ended up in a ditch as the back end stepped out BUT he was probably driving to fast
i think they are quite reliable but they are getting on a bit now |
Hmmm, it would be more of a trophy car rather than somthing i would (lets say) express myself in if that makes sense.
|
Actually I like it even though it suffers from overkill somewhat

dont kid your self mate,you will have a 3.0 twin turbo so your bound to find out what it can do at some point...............just dont do it in the wet :thumb:
What i will do is keep it at whatever power it comes as and just look after it unlike the scoobs which get modded every bloody other day in one form or another :D |

A mate of mine builds these up in newcastle, people from all over drop these into him for rebuilds / more power.the last few ive seen were converted to a single turbo and are some of the biggest blowers ive ever seen. Hes going for a 1000bhp in 2013 in his own car.
Obviously only useable at the drag strip but bet you its still fun in a straight line. |

they are the only car i like de-spoilered,i pass one every day on way to work,a black one-looks mint
|
never driven one but sure read the manual is the better option just a little harder to get hold of .
|
bloody hell, fast and furious or what!! i really like supra's really want to own 1 but for a twin turbo there getting expensive for a clean example!
|
tell the truth have you just finished watching fast and furious boxset lmao
|
lmao! R34 and supra with with 24 gears!
|
If you like a Supra (but not that one please, too chavy!) you may enjoy the Toyota Soarer better.
The Soarer Twin Turbo uses the two turbos together unlike the Supra which is sequential (however I believe you can make them work together) and has the 2.5 1JZGTE lump which loves to rev! The Supra uses the 3.0 2JZGTE which is a bit more powerful. Having driven both I think the Soarer is nicer to drive, feels less twitchy then the Supra. The Auto boxs are very strong on both cars and are are really eager to change gear and are pretty seamless, and you can get the "Supra Stick" which is a manual shift control for the car's automatic transmission. the Manuals are harder to come by and are more expensive for example you can get a auto Soarer TT for about £1200ish but the mans are about £5kish after 1997 they went onto the VVT-i which replaced the Twin CT12 turbos for a single CT15B. One of the biggest issues with them is the coilpacks getting cracks (like mine) and the coilpack clips going brittle, both are due to age and heat, so something to look out for. I love my Soarer but as far as the handling goes its not Impreza (and i dont expect it to be, its a GT car!) which is why I am wanting another Impreza...but I am keeping the Soarer! http://www.motowolfmedia.com/wolfie/.../TTSoarer1.jpg Hope that helps, if you want any more info let me know! |
Ive had 3 Supras,great cars,fast in a straight line not so good at bendy bits.Great cabins.
