Seems to be a lot of Supra FOR THE WIN response but the vote count is show more in favor of the GTR.

Hard choice BTW, I preffer the look of the GTR but my friend has a Supra and its killer.

Both cars can be tuned to perfection, head to head. But I just worry about all that power going through the rear wheels as the GTR will get better traction. SURE ppl have done things to over come the wheel spin with the Supra.

So... What will it be?

hmmm GTR for the win.

both are grea cars. and if it's only for the weekend both will be a good car.

but depends on what you wanna do with it?

do you want to hit up tracks and hills on the weeken and go cruising? or do wanna maybe do some drag stuff and then go cruising?

ultimatly the supra will be faster in a straight line for less cash. but that's only in a straight line. and as far as giving it a thrash on the street (NAUGHTY) the gtr will be better for everything but skids. unless you have a 32 and a attesa switch

we talkin 500hp @ wheels or motor.. because if its motor.. then neither engine needs any mods other than exhaust and some boost to easily crack 500hp @ motor.. if its @ wheels then both cars with both same mods will do it just the same..

Are you f*king retarded?

you think it takes an exhaust and some boost to bring an RB26 or 2J to 500hp at the engine?

you think those 2 mods are going make 373kw at the engine.

that is over 300rwkw.

is this on a PERTH Dyno?

:banana:

to the OP - you obviously want the Supra.

every post you have made so far is in favour of the 2J.

just get that.

you're obviously not after circuit times or time slipped drag times.

Get the supra.

your $10K on mods will get you more power (which is also what you seem to be most concerned with) with the Supra.

so get the supra?

A lot of votes for Supra wow. I vote GTR because I was going through this same dilemma a few years ago when I was tossing up between Supra TT or Skyline GTR?

Well it came down to this. I Love both cars but GTR had two back seats which you can actually use not like the supra and a good size boot for shopping etc.

Also the difference in fuel cost between 2.6 and a 3lt I think a 3lt Twin turbo is an over kill for 2 person ride. And the best thing I like about the GTR is its like a Coca Cola Classic like a Corvette a perfect sleeper but when you see a Supra you think “IN YOUR FACE” big muscle car like a Viper must go fast with bad handling. Therefore there is no real significant advantage having a Supra than a GTR IMO.

I bought for Everyday Street driving not track. I don’t want to wreck my 10.5 x 18 Volks lol.

Any way that’s my opinion and good luck with what you decide.

    • Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA
    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.
