they both are gonna have there advantages and dissadvantages. I mean the supra is gonna be better for extracting hp. The internals on the 2jz are quite good, r34 internals i would imagin should be good too but having spoken to some performance shops on whether they would prefer a supra or a gtr and the sup[ra came out on top.

In Simple English YES!!!!!

Ive driven heaps of supras at work, there big, by no means slow but very old school in side dont really handle tight stuff as well as skylines, there more for straight line speed and highway drag racing nowhere near as fun as a skyline for scooting round town or a mountain run.

Knore: The 350Z is still the light at the end of the tunnel :D I just get impulsive sometimes...so was looking at a Supra for something different.

The Z will probably be the next turbo challenge though.....even though you can't turbo a car that's N/A :D So I've been told

350Z has some ripped aftermarket kits out from HKS, Trust, etc .. bolt on and sideways away. Apparently the VQ35DE in them is one of Nissans strongest engines and responds very nicely to turbo'ing. For my "dream" car its either a R34 GTR or the 350z i think actually (with turbo kit of course)

If you want quick, the TT Supra is basically the quickest RWD japanese car stock out there.. interior is not pretty.. seats are nice, but otherwise blurk.. looks 80's.

Supras are quick, appently, after taking off the speed limiter they will get up to 290kmh stock... That is bloody fast. But how about a chaser? Like 96 model or something, they are different, and they arent short of a bit 13.7 or something stock. But yeah, skyline forum hey, prob better shoot me now for talking up the toyotas :D

    • Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS
    • Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
    • There is an ABS pump and a few solenoids. You could trigger the front/rear solenoids with a pressure bleeder attached with a Consult 2.
