[B]Yeah, it is funny how you hear all these supra guys TALK about their riced-out cars running 10's.

Hey Chris,

where did you run.? I got two 13.8XX at Maple Grove about 6 weeks ago... i think it was about 75F by the end of the evening.

Turbo_Pwr and I just swapped wheels in Easton about 2 weeks ago... ate at the Perkins downtown.

well i totally agree with you why would someone mod there car to make high HP and try to run the 1/4 with street tires never mind 19's like the guy who was mentioned in the first post. that's what the original post was about what kind of idiot would race a high hp car with 19's??

1000 hp supra or any car in my mind is not streetable.


well i love supras and would choose a supra done the way i would do it if i had the $$$$$ over any car in the world BUT i most say i will NEVER like the supra from F&F

 

I'm not knocking TT Supras... I love them and I put them up there with Skylines as far as potential... almost anyways. However... you can have a 400 hp S2000 as a reliable daily driver... anyone with the Speedcraft set up running more than 8 psi can confirm this. It's definitely not a cheap set up but it's completely unfair to compare a factory turbo car to a NA car... especially a 2 liter 4 cylinder NA car. Any turbo car is much easier to extract additional hp... take a DSM (eclipse, talon, laser, etc.) for example. I had spent much less in mods on my 99 GS-T than I spent turbocharging the S2000 and it had more power than was usable... primarily because my car was front wheel drive. Just add an exhaust and a boost controller to most turbo cars and you can sometimes pick-up substantial hp.

 

I ran down at Island drag in Jersey. I think since it was my first time with the car at the strip, I was trying to figure out how to launch it without too much wheel spin, or it was bogging on me. What do you have done to your car? Anything? Good times by the way. I might be selling my S if you know anyonw who is looking to buy one.

hey vr what why you selling your S?
