The entire drivetrain is god tier. Also they're pretty good looking outside, and inside.

They're pretty fat and not really suited as racecars though. Could never really compete with the NSX and GT-R teams in JGTCC.

I'm not saying it's a bad car because it isnt, but if I was given one for free I'd probably sell it and buy something(s) else.

Pretty sure anything given freely will be valued less than something earned.

R34 is better.

Only to the person not speculating on the vehicle.

no they werent

>There were/are other engine platforms that can make similar power under boost as the 2JZ

as easy as 2j? as high as the 2j? no maybe the RB at a stretch

>>15191706
depends on what car you compare to and still the supra handles really well anyway

rb26 is just as good as 2jz although I'd pick the 2jz over it

good meme

I hate this supras can't handle meme as if they weren't sports cars just because they have certain "luxery" properties

>what's a QSV

You right now. Technology has made the 2JZ even better over the years.

Though I think the sweet spot is 600 for the Supra like Orido's.

>>15191091
they are a tuner hero.

near perfect weight distribution, slightly heavy, but that's ok.

reason is, there are several companies that will re-fit cf panelling for everything, shaving the weight well down to around 1100kg.

you don't want it being too light or it can be very difficult to control, read this.

http://www.topgear.com/car-news/supercar/2018-nissan-gt-r-heres-what-we-know

read point 5 in this article.

the supra is not a bad car, it's not an amazing car, it's just very good stock.

But with a bit of quality tuning (not just on the engine) it can be really, really fucking good.

The supra was always mediocre compared to other cars stock, but the real changes come with the improvements to technology. Look at smokey nagata's v12 supra, it's a literal hypercar, years before the 918 and shit came out.

He made it not only a monster in the straight line, but superb on handling as well.

Supras always command respect, because you never know if it's a bone stock one, or something that will rip your brand new lambo apart without even trying.

What makes them great is they can turn, they just need some love in that department as well (chassis tuning, suspension, good sticky tires)

I can't afford a supra

Should i just get a Celica for $750 dollarydoos
