A YouTuber that doesn’t scream at me, have obnoxious music nor manipulative clickbait, and actually calls out toxicity within their own community?!?!?
Great comparison video!
Wow… when clickbait like this exists and people still have to ask why some members here feel the need to defend the Supra against the Nissan.
Hey Ideal Cars guy. What are you?
I mean, Visconti did publicly call him uneducated, then doubled down with the “I can’t believe I have to explain this to you” attitude in a thread that has nothing to do with them.
I don’t know what was said to bring them to this point, but this behaviour from any business is unacceptable...
Well, the Mach-E didn’t kill the Model Y. The C8 didn’t kill all mid-engine Ferraris. The Bronco didn’t put Jeep out of business.
Different cars can exist, thrive, die for many reasons. I don’t see these two cars as direct competitors.
2.0 Supra vs Z:
<3200 pounds vs ~3600 pounds
turbo 4 vs...
Manipulative click bait… he’s comparing a $50,000 car to a $52,000 car but acting like the Nissan is $12,000 less than the Supra.
Also, he can’t tell if the Supra is faster? Than a manual Z?!?
Yeah, I’m pretty shocked that a business would be so openly rude to you - especially on a public forum. I have not seen anything to warrant rude or sarcastic responses.
I mean, I have no skin in this game as I’m not going to be sending my ECU overseas, nor am I looking at getting my car tuned...
Yeah, I keep hearing how much the Supra sucks and how the Z will be such an amazing car. I mean, this guy is clearly having fun, right?

Here he is in the boring, overpriced, automatic, non-enthusiast, Supra.
That’s too bad. What device are you using? For me, most gauges are fast (RPM is instantaneous) but boost and AFR will display for a split second before refreshing. That said, they do update several times per second.
There are a couple of things to try that could help.
In “Settings,” go to...
Good question - I’ve only done around 10 runs so it’s not a huge data set, but the lowest I got was 114 and the highest was 116 (there were decimal points in there but I don’t remember what they were off the top of my head).
My slowest time was just under 12.5 (don’t remember the MPH) and that...
Nice! Yeah, I mean I really don’t feel like I’m abusing the car but these are good things to keep in mind. Any time you are pushing a vehicle towards its limits, care must be taken to not cause damage or injury (to you or others).
- I really don’t know how accurate the app is (think I’ve said...
Stock tires but I would say I can only get a good launch maybe 2/3’s of the time. The remaining 1/3, the tires come loose and it just kills the launch.
My technique:
- Manual mode
- Sport+ (programmed in Bimmercode)
- Traction mode (hit the VSC button once)
- Hold the brake in 2nd gear
- Hold...
No - stock was consistently 3.8-3.9. I added the JB+ and the times have dropped by .3
Again, I’m not sure how accurate this is. I’ll try to get to the track this weekend to see if my 1/4 mile times have improved. Last time I went I was stock and was getting 12.2 @ 116MPH.
