that makes me sick.... i want one

 

Thanks....I really love this car.....However, the other day when I spun out off the line in a slight misty rain, I really missed the Evo. None the less, I absolutely love this car.

 

Great looking car,, Great color.

If it was mine that wing would be off in about .5 seconds.

Wingless Supras really show off thier great timelss lines.

Off with the wing.

 

i think the wing looks great on it,just my 2 cents. beautiful car!

 

Supras ehhhhh, Played out! but never the less quick a$$ car and looks good too

 

Negative leave the spoiler on. The car looks great.

One day, I will own one. I'm gonna have a 1 bedroom house with a 6 car garage.

 

Thanks for the compliments fellas.....It's nice to hang around in this forum still. One day, I just may return to Evo-land.

Nmusaf, I hear you on the 6-car garage dream!

As far as being played out, I don't know how Supras are played out. Perhaps because they've been around a long time? Don't blame them for the F & F attention they received....

I've gone BPU+, and this thing is *****-out quick in a straight line, and from highway passing speeds, it should be illegal.

 

That's one nice looking Supra! I want one so bad but I gave up finding one a couple of years back. All the ones I found were either way over priced or beaten to **** You got a good deal and it has alot of potential

 

Your Supra look good!!What is your track time???After run 10's with BPU,then go for a single conversion !!

 

Very nice ride, I drove one with 500whp once and it was insane.

 

Leave the spoiler ON!

Very nice lookings supra, I swear white will be the next car color I get... just super clean. So, beside you spinning off the line, what are the pros and cons of having a evo and supra? Can you do a comparsion for me?

 

nice d00d ...id love to have a supra. but id never sell the evo to get one. how much does it make to the wheels?

 

Thanks for the compliment. Since my Evo was black, and my daily driver is black, I swore against another black vehicle. It just takes too much time to keep sparkling....

As for a comparison of the Evo and Supra, they really are different cars. This brief writeup is between my old Evo (which had a lot of crap done to it) and my current toy car, this Supra (which has a lot of crap done to it). The Evo would take the Supra on a road course. However, the Supra would take the Evo in a drag race any day. Off the line, the Evo would take the Supra, but if the race was going to last faster than say, 25-30mph, the Supra would walk the Evo. Where the Evo felt like it was running out of gas at the top end, the Supra feels strongest at the top end. The Evo was more awe-inspiring with the massive grip in the twisties and killer brakes. The Supra is more awe-inspiring with it's top end speed. The Supra gets 5x the looks and compliments, but that's not the reason I got the car. The Evo was easier to surprise people with, because most of the general public would never equate a fire breathing monster with a 4door that has a big wing. The Evo made me feel like I was a professional driver, it inspired heroics with speed into turns that most cars wouldn't dare think about. The Supra reminds me that I'm no pro driver, and I can't hit turns as fast as the Evo could. Overall, I think my favorite difference between the cars is the clutch....I felt like the Evo clutch was the Achilles of the car. Whereas, the 6spd Getrag on the Supra feels bullet proof. I can drop it a lot higher in the Supra, and launches are much, MUCH more consistent in the Supra....There is the issue of wheel spin to deal with though....

All in all, they are both wicked cars for what they are. I'm not gonna be a fan-boy of the Supra since that's what I have now and say that it dominates the Evo across the line. At the same time, the Evo doesn't spank the Supra in every performance category. Both of them excel in different areas.


I didn't sell my Evo to get this Supra. I sold my Evo to get a family vehicle to accomodate my growing family. The Supra popped up unexpectedly, and as anyone knows that has shopped for a Supra, you gotta be ready when a deal comes up if you really want one. I've always wanted one.

As for whp, bone stock after 12years, it made 265whp/257lb.ft. @ 11psi. I am making an appointment to get it dynoed later this week.

The current power mods are: full 3.5" exhaust turbo-back, HKS Carbon Ti exhaust, MaxAir Intake (Apexi Cone), GReddy 3row FMIC, @ 18psi. I'm interested to see what it can do now. I've also got a Piggyback ECU similar to Vishnu's XEDE made by Powerhouse Racing ready and waiting in my garage to go on. I'm thinking it will probably break 400whp from what I've read and researched. We'll see at the dyno.

 

nice man

...as for not selling the evo to get a supra, that was more a hypothetical situation in my case. id want the supra ...but couldnt bear to part with my evo.
