Laugh In The Face of Viper Twin Turbos...

Came across this supra listing on ebay...
eBay Motors: Toyota : Supra (item 200027450397 end time Sep-24-06 10:04:00 PDT)
Half way down it says:

"Get this supra and laugh in the face of 911 turbos, viper twin turbos, enzo, etc."

I guess these guys haven't come across the right Viper yet.

I know they are trying to do a good job selling that car, but that ad and video/music combo should make every Supra owner and racer embarrassed as hell. What a gay fucking video

Gary, how did you find that ad? Looking for a real car? LOL!

All of this EVO talk had me questioning what the next little project should be. I thought if I were going to go import, might as well go for the big dog. I was looking into it, but I don't think it's for me.

His dyno sheet is from A.R.T. so I wonder if A.R.T. did the work I didn't feel like reading the 15 pages of info

That car's been on eBay a few times now... For whatever reason, they're having a hard time selling the thing -- definitely not priced where just any guy can afford the thing, but it's nice enough that I thought it'd be gone by now.

I've only seen 1 or 2 other Supra's on eBay that tastefully built... Wish I had the means!

They've been trying to dump that car on 6speed for a while now. I think they were asking 75K and he just announced a "large" price drop.

That car's not to be taken lightly Gary... it has the standing mile record on the Texas Mile and he didn't even floor it until 3rd gear. There have been some serious cars in that competition from year to year but they came nowhere near to being this fast.

YouTube - Autobanh Motorsports Supra Hits 200MPH+

Sorry for my shitty 1st post, I'm not here to rile things up.

Stefanp, that SUpra may not have hit it until 3rd gear, but it's not anything any 1000+ RWHP TT Viper would not have any trouble beating handily.

Those videos are for pansies!

Supra's are cool - but they are not as fun to drive as an AWD Skyline or EVO - period.

The Skyline matches the sound and has one of the best AWD systems on planet earth to drive. They were the first production 4 seater to ever run the Ring in under 8 minutes - stock.

The EVO is amazing for 4 cylinders... check this out 988hp to all 4

I saw the car at TX2K6 and it looked pretty ok...

Heard that it was wrecked a while back and to be honest, I didn't spend a lot of time looking it over..

I think they dynoed the car at ART after the event. I stopped by to pick up my vette and they were dynoing a supra before it hit the road back home... Weaver or Cody - was this the same car?

I didn't say it was to be taken lightly. I am saying that there are SEVERAL TT cars here that will rape it. To say that you will laugh in the face of TT Viper owners is a bit bold.

What's a realistic power figure (pump gas) for an evo?

Stock turbo? 350whp.

Upgraded turbo 400whp to 500whp. The gas is really the limiting variable. You throw C16 in there and you pick up crazy hp/tq.

It's a cool little car. Kind of a "how much power do you want?" kind of gig.

I'm guessing 500whp in that little car would be pretty fun. I think I remember reading that it weighs around 3k lbs.
