who really cares. this thread from back in 2008, and was dug up by some noob, so i don't think the OP is going to care anymore.

as for what is better, the engine in the supra is superior in quality to that of the GTR (and you will find that anyone with any decent mechanical knowledge will agree, even on this forum). also in stock form the supra isn't far behind the GTR in a drag race.

lol 2j may be a better enginem but be f#*ked if I would drive a fat ugly supra. Esp since 99% of them on the streets are N/A and have been fast and the furious over done, making it the ricers 2nd weapom of choice behind hondas

A supra looks more sleek than an r34 gtr =\. But i do agree with the non turbo point. But twin turbos are in a different league.

still the same looking car. Not like a GTR and GTT where the supr model has phat guards and a stance like a BOSS. Supra make have a sleek look but GTR screams.....get out of my f**king way or i will destroy you....tough

ahahaha, and the interior looks like it's from the 1970s. they have the potential to look good, but they often end up looking like arse. a bit like a 33 4 door, LOL

just kidding, the 33 4 door doesn't have the potential to look good

Must...not....necrothread.....ahh, stuff it.

Supras look homo.

Therefore RBs win by default (unless you can find a manual Chaser).

What about the Aristo?

2J + rear seats + a boot?

I'll stick with my 20B, more factory power and torque then both of the formentioned... :whistling:

I didn't think they came in Manuel?

So therefore a Supra TT would be on par with an R34 GTR?

This means the Supra TT is better value for money... $25,000 Vs $45,000

Is this right?

Interesting that a R34 Gtr can be acquired for $45k back in 08. It must have been quite a steal at that price... either that or they haven't gone down in value over the past couple of years, in regard to all the other flagship cars from Japan.

I do like the look of the R34 Gtr's in general, although they do tend to appear fairly lean and tall for an all-round performance orientated car. How Nissan managed to make them handle the way they do in relation to their form deserves some accreditation. Perhaps the same goes for the R35 and all prior models.

    • 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.
