Just going off my experience one of my kids has a na supra and there not overly quick but quicker than a na skyline, when working on the supra every thing just seems more difficult but might just be because we work on the skylines more often. I prefer my 34 any day his supra seems to be a bit jumpy on our roads which are fairly crappy and getting in and out of supras is an effort because you sit low in them and they've got a big step to get out of them, might be ok for the younger generation. Everything seems to cost more on a supra and harder to find. If it's power you want like gtsboy said chuck a bigger turbo, injectors and the rest of the stuff you need and you get a damn quick car. Supras do look good but.....

No. I was being quite serious. Nissans of the era are not terrible, but they have a large array of electrical problems. Toyotas, even Supras, are whitegoods with supreme reliability.

?oh rly. What kind of electrical Problem? I been thinking getting something else now. Since my pocket is not enough for fixing and tune....

You are looking at the wrong cars if reliability is your top concern

Commonwhore SS 6.0 are cheap, throw in a big cam-springs-pushrods, a zorst and some tuning.

Mad aircon lounge chair shopping trolley taxi NA skids.

Just don't go around any corners, and plan your fuel stops.

Or is this just floating around in my mind at the moment????

There's some deals to be had at the moment, prices are dropping everywhere.

this seems like a pretty silly thread bro buy what ever car floats your boat and if its to slow make it faster for yourself. legit twin turbo supras sell for a crazy dollar lots of guys scoop the na ones and single turbo them which makes them good to go with a rear lsd, and couple other parts. skylines are cool im sure your going to find lots of people that are gunna say the r34 you are on skyline australia....as far as reliability any cars only has good as its owner when your talking 25 year old cars... and the time and money your willing to put in to keeping in clean and well will determine the "reliability". gtsboy said it right these cars get in the wrong hands and get bunged up bad.

    • Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out
    • Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.
    • Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.
    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
