Interested in why yo think the integrated manifold is so limiting? The 210hp VW GTI (EA888 Gen3) also has an integrated manifold, and there are several turbo kits to go 500+ Problem? Solution: The new Civic Type R engine (K20C1) also has an integrated manifold. There are kits...

LOL! They surely must have learnt from master marketers at Porsche... they sell 26 versions of the same car (911). Starting at USD 91.000 for the basic Carrera, and going up to 800.000 (GT2-based 935) with several "limited editions" included. Surely Toyota can manage to sell an interesting...

The A90 will outperform the A80 in every performance metric. For less money. From what we know, with conservative estimates: And since I was bored, stock B58 (340i) versus a stock manual 2JZ GTE Supra which dyno around 290whp. B58 is just better everywhere, there is a huge area under the...

First mod: remove speakers.

Interesting video! - The car short shifts from 1st to 2nd gear at around 6000rpms, but on the other gears it`s way past the 6500rpms "redline", seems more like 6800rpms - It shifts very quickly - Gear ratios are close! - 100 to 200km/h in 10.4 seconds. That`s pretty solid. Porsche 911 GT3...

Yes, they should totally replicate a sales flop that only became relevant to the world after a shitty street racer movie and gave Toyota even more reason to abandon sports cars. I think targeting a lower price bracket and more volume was the right call. But as you say, we shall see.

This sounds promising. A proper “track” version will obviously include a lot more than the extra power: less weight, better suspension, more cooling capacity, better brakes, better tires. Hopefully it’s true.

Finally that damn cammo is off! Looks absolutely fantastic. So much better than his Z4 brother.

They were not even trying.

PerformanceSound now considering an A90?

And still, those "later" Supras are not really considered to be the pinnacle of handling right? While I agree with you in general terms (double wishbones > mac struts), often people get too hung up on general design terminology, while the real focus should be implementation: a properly...

A good race debut for the supra! It didn´t explode in flames. The objective was clearly to gather data and continue the car development, not pace or points. That is evident with the driver lineup, not a single professional race driver there: - Morizo: It´s actually Akio Toyoda, the CEO of...

So the rumors were true :D This early debut means Toyota is really serious about their Supra motorsport effort, quite different from BMW which has no intentions of racing de Z4 and may not even offer an /M variant. Now give us the “Toyota Supra Race parts catalogue” please!

According to rumors it is a GT4-spec car, which is technically homologated to the German SP10 category of the VLN (Nurburgring Endurance Championship). Apparently it´s going to be in the grid for the next race (VLN 9) which is taking place October 20th. Races are livestreamed. It would be cool...

Some interesting elements: - 7000rpms Tachometer - Sorry guys but it´s not a laptime, it´s a date (2018.7.22), probably a build date with the responsible´s signature - Brembo race series brakes hiding there, and Pirelli racing slicks MEDIUM compound (DM) - 300mm wide tires? Some decent negative...

Good catch! It does not match any of the current Toyota WEC drivers signature. 7:22 nurburgring laptime sounds very realistic for this car. That is 911 turbo level of performance.

Very cool that Toyota is developing a race version of the Supra. This one is running a full telemetry suit, which is why I still believe the 7700rpms telemetry screen we saw in the Toyota jarama video was for this car and not the street car. I wonder what is the purpose of the car though. It´s...

THIS was a cool leak :D So, a lot of BMW parts, but at least they chose the right parts! I`m glad to see the confirmation of a very beefy engine and drivetrain: closed deck block, ZF gearbox, M5 driveshaft, M-series differential, this will all hold +500whp no problem, who knows the real limit...

Z4 sDrive35is: €57,900 with taxes Z4 M40i: €51,218 plus VAT = €60,949 with taxes M2 Competition = €61,900 with taxes So around 5% more expensive than previous generation in the German market, and basically same price as M2 competition.

It`s lowered 10mm compared to the non-adaptive version, but it has no ride height change itself. Probably similar for the Supra.
