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

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
