That's not necessarily true (the fg part), and even if it were it wouldn't make it fake. Dry carbon refers to the finish on the exterior (gloss with a shiny resin vs a matte textured finish, usually). Whether a part has fiberglass backing on it is a construction detail, you need to look closely...
Boy, that is the happiest looking NSX ever. He must be totally stoked to be front engine (take that c8).
The upper piece is all one piece, as the production car should be. This looks better.
They fricken nailed it...
Drop dead styling, sport roof, double wishbones in all 4 corners, 6spd manual, no fake vents and 100% made in Japan.... it's short 2 cylinders of being a better Supra then the new Supra.
I came down from BC Canada for the Japanese Classic Car Show in Long Beach CA in 2009 with my black 86 mk2 after finishing my engine build. There was a couple other mk2s there as well, one was a gorgeous blue 84 I believe owned by a middle aged guy. We got to talking about mk2s of course for...
Styling is exactly the problem. The whole point of a car like this is gorgeous Italian styling with rock solid Japanese engineering. It's a great formula, too bad they fucked it up. The resulting car was not only kind of awkward to look at, it ended up being based on the most gorgeous Miata ever...
Hey! Nice to see you here man.
A HP graph doesn't mean much. HP is a measurement of how much work is being done. It's relevant for cars that need to maintain momentum when cruising at a certain speed or for calculating top speed. Datalog your car with an accelerometer and you'll see your torque...
If it only it were a joke...
It needs to depreciate before it can come back up to original MSRP like the mk4 did twice. Hell, its already marked up right now.
I really wish the F&F mainline series and characters had been put to rest with Walker, shoulda ended it with 7. Lets see if they can...
I betcha this is all BMW. Toyota likes to act like they get to make all the calls on the Supra, but they didn't engineer it, it's not their parts supply and it's not built in their factory. If BMW has no interest in adding a manual to this motor for the Z4, it likely won't happen for the Supra...
Theres adds on that page and the title of the article is...
"Expert Engine Builder Believes Stock 2020 Supra Block Can Handle 1,000 HP"
Which he did not say in the vid....
Because it's a bullshit click bait article? That's not very nice Bryster ;)
As has been pointed out, the video does not say the motor can handle 1000hp, and would also be BS if it did, but he aims to see if it can.
Sounds more like 74k or so. More details here...
