I wouldn't say so..... I drove a Mk4 RZ on the weekend and DAMN!!! they pick up so well and the feeling you get when the 2nd turbo comes on boost is absolutely amazing. Plus that 6th gear just tops it off.

I would own 1 in a second

I thought supras were simultaneously turbochrged not sequential?

Its simultaneously turbocharged, but they kick in sequentially.. If that makes sense

No issues with Skylines vs * here. Thats why ronin is still here, he is our token toyota driver. :D

The supra is a real sports car though, they are just so nice to drive. I prefer skylines, but if Nissan didnt make the skyline I would probably have a 350z, but if they didnt make a 350z then maybe I would go a supra.. maybe.. hehe

The Supra's are SEQUENTIAL.

it has 2 x CT12B turbo's.

Unlike the Liberty B4 which has one bigger than the other.

there is some sort of valve that allows boost to go to the second turbo as the revs go up and at say 3000rpm (eg as I don't know the exact rev point), the valve is completely and both turbo's are boosting away...

I'd love one..

There are 2 wires in the ECU that are grounded that activates the 2nd turbo.

I would imagine the grounding of those 2 wires would activate some sort of butterfly in the exhaust manifold that would then allow the 2nd turbo to build boost...

I could be wrong though

But that system like the rx7 always plays up, hence y people go 1 single or twins with new manifolds.

My boss has a 1927 Bentley which he drive to work on a friday once a month. Hmm its friday and its in the carpark :)

Oi - ONLY toyota driver here???? :)

ok - so i don't post much - but i'm here - lurking around

There are things acronymed to VSV's (some sort of valves) that open up actuators (like a wastegate) at certain RPM - there are two because it first opens up the exhaust section (to spin up the turbo) then the intake - so that an already boosting turbo is helping out the first one :D

You can still catch it out though between the turbos :mad:

As for the Skyline vs Supra vs Anything else - it's nice to poke fun at my mates with skylines, it's always meant with a mountain of salt. All in good fun.

As for Exas... well... that's just not on ;)

PS Tosh - you're welcome, when you get your car sorted, i'd love a drive of teh MR2

      Yep that's pretty much what I want to see. Racecars that look and sound like the Group A but with newer tech underneath to make them faster and safer. I'm sure there's enough VK-to-VN commodore, E30 BMWs and Foxbody mustangs shells around to make up a decent number of cars with hopefully a couple of sierras, rx7 and R31s in there too.

      Contact Jessestreeter.com/Skevas Racing/JustJap for a new r34 rb gearbox or go a cd00# conversion. No point playing with unknown condition gearboxes.

      Such a shame places like Amaroo Park have been redeveloped, smaller tracks always make for good racing. Cheers for sharing @PranK there's some good Lakeside video's too. Its so hard with older the cars as parts are so rare and everything was made for a particular chassis at that point in time. Even the V8 Supercar Blueprint era cars are all different between each chassis within a team as they learnt things and made improvements. The COTF cars between each Chassis builder is different too especially motor/oil systems/intakes. The Group A stuff is worth so much too especially chassis with good history. The only way to do it would be composite panels and similar engine drivelines to the original cars. Ford sierra running Focus RS driveline, Commodore running a short stroke LS/LT or a Falcon with coyote and a H Pattern dog box. Could use a standard ecu across all models with a Torque Map and DBW for parity which is not even used in Supercars currently. Hell a TCM is almost a full chassis car these days and the suspension is not even close to standard style in the front running cars.

      Wish someone would start a racing series for Group A replica cars, a bit like Touring Car Masters but for 1985 onwards and not grandpa's falcon and/or Monaro. I know they race in some historic class but that's for original cars, no replicas allowed.
