supra

[Pimplaps]

bad a** clip but this is about ls1's not imports "supras"

[turyg ls1]

I agree, it's about ls1 not rice burner's

[blackSS01]

As I speak of Supra's being rare around these parts, I seen a super nice one today That thing was done right and done expensive. I am no expert but this thing had to be pulling 5XX+ HP because it was flawlessly done and sounded incredible.

Some stock inline 6's have been known to make more torque than v8 as well stock. Inline motors sometimes have a bigger/longer/heavier crank than v8 do.. Heavier crank = more torque.. "I" motors except for 4 bangers tend to balance better and run smoother than "v" motors too..

Unless of coures it's the 660...

Being your both new......90% of people on this board like cars that are fast regardless of what brand or country they originated from Some don't, most do The longer you stay here, the more you will learn

I agree......but REALLY.....throwing rocks...... Can I ask you a question, where you the one that built the Turbo 3.1L Corsica that I seen about a year ago? Thats my DD and that was a badass build. Think it ran a 13.1 with 6 psi of boost

[Conflict]

The cleanest Supra I have ever seen was a stock one filling up at a Costco, Older dude had it but it was great to see a stock one.

I would put the Supra in my top list of cars

[travs98ls1]

haha poopras wouldnt mind takin one for the pink slip! ebay quick sale or just keep it to taunt the asians with it or very nice collector lol that era but them jap balls versus ls1 balls think my ride could do it, 3 times put a srt-8 300 model to shame my autozone oilchange store guy lol am wanting my 5 percent discount lol cant he tell lmfao p.s. anyone have any feedback so that my sig shows....? dont want to repeat it to get an infraction!

Nah that was ForcedFirebird.. The trany did'nt last in the Corsica iirc.. He's doing a 3.4/3500 hybrid with twin turbo too for a 3rd gen..

Forcedfirebird and I have the only 2 TT 660 builds here @ the site..iirc..I believe we both also have the only 2 TT-660 builds of their kind anywhere.. Mine is the only TDCTT for sure..

you would get rapped soooooo hard if a supra had any money into it. only thing that would be being taken in one of those races is your dignity and manhood

a mk IV 2JZ runs 13.3 stock. dont confuse a supra with a autozone'd civic or integra ....the mkIVs can straight up run.

a fbody and a supra are two different philosophies on speed. one goes the way of large displacement N/A . The other goes with smaller displacement and F/I.

when modding is concerned (both platforms with similar times) the F/I will almost always win..they can make stupid power relatively easy and cheaply.

i dont want to come off rude or saying your car isnt fast. but a modded 2jz is a scary thing and one that i dont even want to mess with just yet . fyi i have 3.23 gears

Was it the red one with black rims, front mount and a non-aggresive body kit on it? Hes usually in burbs around Milwaukee so it probably wasnt him. That guys car sounds nice but still tame for 900+whp.

Hulk Hogan's son had a bad ass Supra....we all know what happened there.

Lol he also smashed up drift vipers in like 3 events. Kid cant handle power,cant respect power, hes too dumb with power now his friend is missing 3/4s of his skull.

There used to be a black one around here locally that was modified by one of the local shops. It looked completely stock on the outside aside from aftermarket wheels, a lower stance, and a FMIC. The car was owned by some old guy and his wife. Both looked to be in their late 50s, white hair and all. This old geezer put down a low 10s 1/4 mile with the 6 speed at one of the track events I went to, and drove the car home with A/C and full interior. The car was absolutely mint. It looked brand new inside and out. Definitely one of the cleanest ones I've seen, and fast to boot.

Poopras? They can safely handle 800-1000whp stock bottom end. which makes them cheap to mod once you buy one. I ran a supra down in OC 2 weeks ago and it was the one race I def thought it could go either way. I won but I dont think it was too modded. Def a respectable car.

Heavier crank = more torque

Are you serious? I thought torque was a direct byproduct of stroke vs displacement and powerband, and had absolutely nothing to do with the weight of the internal assembly.

Are you serious?? Heavier spinning mass = greater innercial(sp)torque.. An internal combustion engine creates two kinds of torque. One is created by the combustion process (such as you discribed) the other is created as a by product of the rotational mass of the object that is spinning.. Basics of how an internal combustion engine works.. Basic physics.. Think of it like this, if you use an aluminum flywheel on an engine it will spin up faster but has less torque @ a given rpm.. Now using a steel flywheel (same engine) it takes longer to spin up but has greater torque @ the same given rpm due to it's heavier rotating mass..
