I owned a 1JZ-GTE twin-turbo Type R before my Skyline. I took it to a few performance places where they told me not to bother wasting my money on trying to make it go fast.

Then I see in HPI Supras like this with 500hp doing 10sec 1/4's, is it just that the guys here don't know what there doing. All they seem to like working on is SR20's and RB's.

I think that Supras are awesome cars, in terms of both looks and performance. Good luck with the new Supra forum Boostzor, hope it is sucessful.

See'ya

:burnout:

M8 i pull a 14.3 1/4 with only zorst and filter i wouldnt exactly call that 'slow'. The only thing that lets em down is the weight, they make more stock than the 'line ever will (cept for R) and the susp aint so great but they have kikass gearboxes.

Hi Boostzor,

Ignore Hicks, he's just jealous cause the only thing he can drag off is mum doing the shopping in the commodore.

The supra was a manual, had an awesome amount of power and torque for a relatively factory car. I don't want to name names, as I know them reasonably well, but they played around with them before and couldn't get any reasonable power out of one, even with a bigger turbo etc.

The japs must know a trick or two that us Aussies don't.

I didn't think the suspension was that bad, but I think the Type R's had stiffer suspension that the normal models.

See'ya

The single turbo was much better seeing as it had vvti and all. I reckon it would be easier to make power out of, too bad they are almost impossible to find it was hard enuff to find a manual tt to begin with. The nissans are just a little more basic i reckon and it makes em easier to work with " air goes in, gas comes out" plus the supra just looks soo bling bling :(

Hicks: Having a good time with photoshop i see.

    • I do like the look of these things (minus the ugly flat top surface with the text) https://rajabracing.com.au/product/nissan-rb25det-neo-intake/ Retains the OEM bottom runners, for that phat low range. If you want response king, maybe go with the Plazmaman pipe work, here's my old setup from a decade ago
    • Torque will suffer greatly, will try and find dyno difference on r34 with gt30 between stock and plazmaman short runner. like 2000-3000rpm power rdip at least. EDIT Green line is stock manifold, others is plazmaman short runner I also had a rb25 with greddy and q45 TB back in the day and was shit daily driving. Plazmaman top plenum with stock runner and DBW made it so much nicer.
    • Welcome to !
    • As I've said elsewhere, I am using the stock intercooler piping path in the engine bay, and a return flow cooler, and making ~250 rwkW (without any effort put into trying to turn it up past there just yet) and expect to be able to make some more, and frankly, I would be perfectly happy with 260-270rwKW. This is peak road Skyline usability territory. You go past there and, sure, the car will snap necks more when it's on boost, but it will also break shit all the time, cost a (even larger) fortune in tyres, etc etc. Anyway, I also do not like the over-the-fan pipe path, and you don't have to do it.
    • I see, honestly I’m not too fussed about the looks. The only reason to go plenum is to make the piping easier instead of the classic over the rad etc.
