Supra is probably more comfortable and will pull more car sl**s.

ever tried sitting in the back of a supra? most uncomfortable thing ever, im not saying the gtr is a limo but alot more comfortable than a supra...

AWD>RWD

Stock on Stock the GTR is quicker at the drags or on the track (AWD advantage)

You will get more power out of a 2JZ easier, than in an RB26.

GTRs are PHAT so are therefore better :D

Seriously mate, both cars are great, I wouldn't mind a Supra actually.....

there was a creesida at the summer nats that had a 2jz in it,f**k massive turbs reeled of 600hp on the dyno... it was the biggest bucket to look at..he said it cost 15k all up or something

ill get a photo soon...

whats the quickest RB powered car anyone knows of? Reece's GTR? quickest supra i know of is about 7.9, but have seen 2JZ's in the sixes....

Vinny tenn's supra runs 7.3 (auto), actually there seems to be more quick supras than gtr around. I was just having a look on youtube and theres shitloads of street driven supras in the 8's.

Its ironic, that. It seems that RWD drag cars still end up ultimately being quicker.

I'm not sure how true it is, but after the discussion about the HKS "drag" R33 GT-R finally broke into the 7's a while ago, one of my V8 loving mates remarked that there have been worked Falcodores doing it for a while.

Supras are really big over there. They hardly ever see skylines on the road tho.

They never made LHD Skylines and the RB isn't remotely emissions compliant, which pretty much killed their popularity over there. But it makes them super rare, and super expensive.

It didn't help that the only "official" GT-R importer got busted for falsifying documents regarding their cars' compliance, either.

I'm on a 350Z forum, and one of the guys was thinking of trading in his 350Z for a stock R33 GTS-t. If there was a cash adjustment, it was almost miniscule or in the Skyline owner's favour. Can you see that happening in Australia? Most of the Aussie guys who saw that thread told him he was insane, but then we look at it from a different perspective. For them, they're so rare I guess its worth it. Its like us paying AUD$100,000 for a RHD converted Mustang - over there they top out at USD$42K - which isn't even AUD$60K.

if they dont meet emisions, then how do they get em registered over there?

as for vinny ten, i thought he'd run that quick, but i went to check the top 100 supras list, and the quickest was 7.90, now that i think about it, im pretty sure that list is for street cars/drag radials. i was also going to mention how alot of supras seem to be quicker than skylines, and the sheer number of supras running those times vs skylines, but thought this was not the best venue for it, so im not gonna do that >_<

2JZ FTMFW!

$$$ gts them regod. each are individually looked into...

LOL at person who made thread. should knw the answer u are a member of SAU

What are the simalaraties of a 600, 700 and 800hp supra?

they all run 13's.

Also other similarities between supras running 600, 700 or 800hp is that they can do it on stock internals, another similarity is put a good set of semi slicks on them and they won't be running 13's, it will match any fully built car.

If your the sort of person who likes to start or participate seriously in these sorts of threads I say put a good set of semi slicks on your head prefferably covering your mouth and you should run under a 5 pushed off a 1/4 mile cliff in either car of your choice.

Me and my mate(he owns a 94 supra) have been arguing over which is quicker, the Supra or the R32 GTR.

I told him the best R32 GTR would kill the best Supra any day becuase it is lighter and the fact that the Skyline is the most tunable car ever. So he shows me some you tube video of some 8 second Supra.

What do you guys think..which is quicker quarter mile? If you have some proof it would be good as he never takes my word for it.

7.92 R32 GTR clip -

Not an R32 GTR but here's how they fare stock for stock a bone standard R33 GTR V Spec VS a bone stock Toyota Supra RZ, im sure R32's are faster again being lighter than 33's...

Supra certainly has the advantage in the top end but how often do you think you will be doing them sorts of speeds on the street trying to just beat somebody in a GTR who would maul you for nearly a kilometer.

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
