I have preached this many many times in previous posts and everyone laughed and criticized me. The MKIV Supra is legendary now because of the drive train....period! I build 2JZ's on the side, and am building one now for my own personal project and every time I crack open these engines, it...
Oh well...back to work on my 2JZX project :D.
This is why Nissan has always been in the lead in terms of Japanese motorsports....their engineers and decision makers are motorsports enthusiasts and focus on that more than cutting costs. Not saying Nissan doesn’t find ways to improve budgets...
This was what I was hoping for before the unveil. I truly wanted a "non-Supra" halo car. The Supra name has run it's course, let's see a new halo car emerge. But, alot of what you said is true of auto manufacturing nowadays....everything has become finance driven. I don't get it, because the...
Yeah, that would suck. I am sure they will have a super fast shifting DSG or SMG, but it still isn't the same. I also hope Toyota doesn't put an AR5 (R154 Gen.2) in this car. The last thing we need is a weak point in the A90. I love the way the car looks....now just give it a beefy...
You could very well be right...that may be "a" reason not necessarily "the" reason. No one knows for sure...but I'm simply trying to state that just because it has German engineering involved doesn't mean Toyota will let it's guard down and let itself fall in a deep deep ditch of...
Well, your assuming this based on the car being 100% Toyota....and im basing it on the car being a BMW clone right? BMW doesn't have a bad relationship with Getrag, never has and never will. So if the car will be a BMW mechanical "clone" then I see no reason why a Getrag would not or cannot be...
I dislike German-made anything let alone cars more than anyone on this forum. However, one thing I have come to realize, is that alot of the great things about the MKIV Supra, were in fact...German-made! The V160/161 transmission in the MKIV Supra (you know the transmission that is known for...
Listen to this man....he is 110% on point. Tuners have become very advanced nowadays. When the MKIV was out, less than a handful of tuners knew how to upgrade them. It wasn't until ~10yrs after 1998 that the MKIV Supra really began to shine. Even with the F&F, it still wasn't until late...
Yes! Me! I think the racecar concept looks fucken awesome....especially that side profile shot. I hope the production version looks just as good and I hope the “90” truly stands for A90....as in JZA90 so we can get a 3JZ. Hey we all got dreams...
I am so ready for a halo car....it’s been a long time saving for a super fast car. I am down to two cars at this point, a GTR or a FT-1 (or whatever it will be called). If the FT-1 delivers with a solid tuning platform for ~$60k, then im in. If not, then ill bite the bullet and spend more for...
So, just so i'm clear on this unveil.....are we going to see a racecar only or will we see an actual pre-production car? Also, will they unveil the production cars name or will it be a codename for the racecar?
@administrator....let's get a poll up for the name of the car.
Since there is nothing officially stating the production name, and most people assume it will be called a Supra...let's get a poll up for some names (i.e., Supra, GT1, 3000GT, Other, etc...).
My vote is "GT-1"
