I think Zach makes his living from selling Supras and Supra mods, so he NEEDS to defend this particular brand of rice - just to keep the customers piling in and wasting their money when they could be buying a quality German car instead. <img src="graemlins/wave.gif" border="0" alt="[byebye]" />

My toyota are as good as my porsche in performance.I like both of them

Exactly, and let me tell you something, I haven't had any problems with my car. Just to let you know, I was doing some calcuations and I figured out that a 600 RWHP 951 (which is possible) that is lightened (2100 lbs), can beat a supra with 800 RWHP in a straight line. Now, about the curves, I don't even have to go there. The back of the supra looks like F***'n PIG. I'm starting to hate that car more and more. If you think im wrong about the 951 do the calculations yourself.

Weight becomes less of a factor as the speed increases. But I am sure you already know that right? I can make my toilet have 600rwhp also but at the end of the day it is still only good for taking ****s, much like your car.

My car speaks for itself. I know exactly what I am talking about. Why do I? Because these are the other 2 cars that I drive which sit next to my Supra in the garage.

Hmmmm -
Supra - stock block capable of 900+HP @ 40k
Porsche Turbo - Stock block capable of 650HP @ 120k

Who's really wasting money here? You can have a completely modded 900HP Supra for $50k or a stock Porsche Dumpster ...i mean boxter for same cost.
Spend another 70k for base turbo, then another 50k in mods to even consider 650HP.

YOu're comparing My porsche to a toilet? REally? I guess your car is not too far off then is it? SO I guess according to you, both of your cars are garbage now, That's fine with me. Have Fun with your garbage!

Yeah Zach, you are a real braniac. Your command of the Supra and the English language is just too much for me. LOL.

Hey guys, over here from the 993 board. Thought I would post some links to results from a 10 of the best shootout that took place earlier this year in the UK. The entrants included lots of skylines, supras and a 996 GT2.

Top speed challenge:

<a href="http://www.200plusclub.com/trackday/TopSpeed.doc" target="_blank">http://www.200plusclub.com/trackday/TopSpeed.doc</a>

500m Drag

<a href="http://www.200plusclub.com/trackday/500mClass.doc" target="_blank">http://www.200plusclub.com/trackday/500mClass.doc</a>

Handling course:

<a href="http://www.200plusclub.com/trackday/Handling.doc" target="_blank">http://www.200plusclub.com/trackday/Handling.doc</a>

And lastly, the guy with the fast skyline and his latest achievement:

<a href="http://www.gtr.co.uk/html/shownews.asp?ID=q4/elvington_101002" target="_blank">http://www.gtr.co.uk/html/shownews.asp?ID=q4/elvington_101002</a>

The guy who owns this skyline (Ronnie) uses it as a daily driver, and it is totaly reliable. Don't get me wrong, I am a Porsche owner and love the marque, but I have great respect for other cars out there and what they can do.

Eric

Oh, I get it now. Zach is a used car salesman.

Why all the personal attacks? We should just accept that we like different cars and let it be... this thread's gonna go on forever like this.

This whole argument is getting pedantic, it's like trying to say that the Lexus LS430 is a better luxury sedan than a Mercedes S600. Please, these cars, like the Turbo and the Supra are not even in the same class.

One car was designed for the wealthy enthusiast, the other for yuppies or import racers concerned with 1/4 mi timeslips and getting other people's Honda pinkslips! <img src="graemlins/roflmao.gif" border="0" alt="[hiha]" />

<strong>Soon2Be,

How can you even say I'm ignorant? Just because I don't like jap cars?

Here's another reason why I don't like rice... try getting into an accident with one. They have got to be some of the most unsafe vehicles on the road.

Everyone has their preferences, why can't you just respect that. And by the way, this is a PORSCHE forum, so what do you expect? A bunch of Honda loving kids?

Hit your Hondas against my BMW 7 series, and that will be the end of you! Literally! <img src="graemlins/roflmao.gif" border="0" alt="[hiha]" /> </strong><hr></blockquote>

i've owned all types of cars, been in accidents in all types of cars and the japanese cars have been best for me regarding safety. And I know this is a porsche forum, but be open minded about other cars. A supra is not a piece of crap as you are referring to. Ever driven one? Probally not? Ever driven in or driven a high horsepower one and compared it to a high HP porsche turbo car? They aren't much different, personally i'd take the porsche, but they aren't really comparable, a supra is a much cheaper expense.


And take my hondas against a 7 series? In what? A race? that'll be tuff. The 740 is a quick car, dad use to have one but it's not comparable. Although you got a nice car on your hands I won't take that away from you. But what fun is a 4 door anyways
