Supra

One of my favorite driver-centric interiors

Literally only special because of the memetax of fast and furious

What's the appeal of any car really? People like what they like, nothing you say or think is gonna change that.

This the SC400 is such a fucking steal for being objectively superior than the supra

>no oil pressure gauge

what's up with nip sports cars not having them?

Hilariously, the miat does.

they are not corvettes

Thanks again for filling in for me while I've been gone, senpai. School has been a bit hectic

It's an ugly skyline.
But my friend bought one and I've come to appreciate them more.

over rated heavy boring slushboxes

most of them are bog stock and cunts want 8grand+ for a assfucked version

meanwhile the v8 sc400 cost like 2-4 grand and shit all over them haha

Tbh rather have one of these or an Aristo with the 2JZ-GTE over the supra

>and 90's drift culture
no, just 90s and early 00s performance culture in general

>it handles pretty crap to boot
stop this meme

>sc400
>slushbox gutless piece of shit, fatter than the supra and it actually cant turn
1uz is a paperweight

>handles like crap

You obviously haven't ever driven one.

I have and they dont handle very well

That are straight line drag cars and highway queens

And cunts seriously expect they can get $10-40k aud for them are absolutely dreaming seriously look at this shit

carsales.com.au/cars/results?limit=24&setype=pagination&q=(And.(C.Make.Toyota._.Model.Supra.)_.Induction.Twin Turbo Intercooled.)&offset=12&sortby=~Price

MOST OF THEM ARE FUCKING AUTOS

>meanwhile the v8 sc400 cost like 2-4 grand
makes 250hp from a shit engine, has a 4 speed slushbox, and weighs 200kg more than the supra... its really a better car it is

...

Better than paying twice the price for a car thats just as crap in its stock form and just as slow and handles just as bad.

Seriously i used to think the R33 was over rated but the supra has reached fucking 4AGE AE86 levels of retardation

the fact that you even compared this to a kardashian.... kill yourself.

reported for spam

>I have and they dont handle very well
So you havent driven one. Okay.

>20k range for turbo manual supra
Whats the problem here? Same price as gtrs, rx7s, gc8 stis, and evo 6.5+...

Stop falcunt

BEHOLD MY TRUE FORM

>Better than paying twice the price for a car thats just as crap in its stock form
lol you are actually this retarded and delusional. the supra is leagues better than the sc400.

>supra
>runs 12s stock
>sc400 is a fucking 15 second car
just kys

>assmad nissan scumbag
You realize announcing a report is against the rules?

They were GT's not sport's cars. So the variables you mentioned have no real standing as niether car was meant to be driven hard or intended to be sporty.

The thing is The SC400 had a 4 speed and a extrmeely smooth and bulletproof 1uz which actually had torque unlike the six pot. Also the luxury refinements in the sC400 like the two point doors sound insulation and power everything made this car the perfect cruiser just as the engineers intended. Something meant for commuting on the highway in style and dropping your kids off.

The supra on the other hand lacked the v8 power the sc400 had and as a result had to rev the piss out of them to get any power They were heavy but lacked any of the luxery refinement the sc400 had while having none of the benefits giving rise to the question,What is exactly the appeal of this car

the 1uz was detuned from factory. An aggressive tune and a exhaust and headers and you will have a faster car than the supra with torque and drivability to boot

lol, still mad?

as expected

and how do you make them not ugly?

an aggressive tune and exhaust and intake and you will have an even faster supra
the 1uz is a god tier commuter v8 but its no performance engine

they cant even get 250rwhp though so i doubt it

>Dont get it in fucking tan
>Body kit
Bout all you can do

Or you could leave it fucking stock. When you grow up you will learn to like the subtle curves of the SC unlike the factory rice of the supra. The latter hasn't aged well at all. The only car worse was the late model 3000gt's

because its not Italian

To each their own, I'd say it at least needs a lip and modest skirt. Nothing major.

Is $16000 an adequate price for a TT Supra? They're usually around that where I live.

depends

link?

not really aimed at the supra, i love supra's for their design and sound, but can I ask why the entire JDM culture is so fucked up?

people think anything JDM is heaven sent. It's like those kind of people who spaz out when they see a skyline.
They're just a car, they are literally fucking everywhere in most other countries outside the states, they are over hyped to the point where people make lame fucking car memes for them.

"Yeah this is a RARE JDM part" "my integra has JDM front end" "only came on JDM models" "my shifter is a JDM dildo i fuck myself in the ass with"
it's literally getting to the same level as honda/mustang people and their cult following thinking their vehicle is the baddest thing on planet earth.

RB's are fragile, 2j's are heavy, 4g63's love crankwalk. everything has it's faults like any other fucking car.

Just like the car for the fucking car... not some lame materialistic hype bullshit no one really cares about.

>engine with very hig potential
>50/50 FR Layout
>nice driver oriented interior
>looks nice
It also has been hyped to fucking hell by every fucking tuning car magazine and website ever. It's almost as bad as the GTR hype.

>followed by young, retarded faggots who want to be "in"
>performs like shit without modifications
>looks like shit without modifications
>aging quickly
>fans are obsessive and will actively attack someone who doesn't like what they like

Idk seems pretty spot on.

Eh, they're not in English anyway, that just seems to be average price.

Well, European makers made luxury cars, nips made performance cars. So nip cars were actually made to be owned by normal people while offering similar performance (infinitely better performance if you consider the price). Americans did the same with their ponycars, but they never bothered to export them in large numbers. So "JDM" is like a cool car that you can can actually own. Also in the 90s Japanese cars were just straight up best in the world in any class except highest luxury. They're considered to be reliable too, even though it's just Toyota and Honda that are actually engineered to not break.

I've never really liked the supra that much but after seeing this image I'm considering it

>tfw don't live in america/uk/aus
>tfw all ricer and yobo culture is focused around shitty generic beemers and audis
>tfw mr2's, miata's, ae86's, supras etc come without ricer tax
>tfw they're usually hobby cars with good care taken of them and the worrysome parts swapped and can still be had without ricer tax

>go to orileys
>Pic related parked outside
>owner works there
>Stock tt 6 speed with 220k miles
>He also has an nsx and a 3kgt vr4
Hopefully I can convince him to let me drive it.

Fuck that supra get a ride in his nsx

I'm not really a fan but I'm pretty sure they're easily modifiable, and I don't think they look that bad.

>followed by young, retarded faggots who want to be "in"
why do you care

>performs like shit without modifications
wrong but ok.

>looks like shit without modifications
wrong again

>aging quickly
nope

>fans are obsessive and will actively attack someone who doesn't like what they like
again why do you care?

leave your fedora at the door lad.

Well the engine is currently out the nsx, I will when it's done of course

absolutely kimochi fucking warui. kys ples

Poopra deserved better representation in Initial D that that race against Keisuke no one remembers or cares about.

everybody so mad

...

So you haven't driven one

This.

>the SC is better maymay

Poorfags gonna poorfag.

This coming from a povertyfag.

Z32 300ZX.

I suddenly like the Supra even less now

what an abomination

The R33 was never overrated. People shit on it in favor of the R32 and R34 all the time.

Agree with this post. Don't know why the Supra has such a negative double standard attached to it.

Lmao. Talking about a 1uz like its an ls1. A 400 hp na 1uz is a 7000 dollar project and thats starting with a used engine.

How do you make a 1uz fast? You buy a time machine and turn it back to the 90s when the 1uz was still a state of the art engine.

Sorry

t. Former 1uz car owner.

Your opinion. I think the SC and Supra both look lovely.

I love their design too.

There's a reason GT-R, Supra, and RX-7 are the three most exalted names of their field.

You should consider it more. I have more Supra porn if you're interested.

>everything at weird angles
>especially the window switch panel on the left side at 45 degrees
ugly and unergonomic

Fuck that NSX, get a ride in his Supra.

Beautiful. Is the pic OC?

Only complaint is I don't like the 16" wheel design. Prefer the 17"s.

YES. YES! YES! THANK YOU.

That race was so disappointingly short.

No wonder benchretards hate them.

>these opinions exist

Looks fine to me.

Isn't it good if something is disliked by benchracers?

Fucking kek.

(am agree)

You'd think so, but it also takes more than eBay mods and a bigger turbo for a Supra to reliably make absurd power. The fanbase is fairly cancerous and plenty are dumb enough to think that the IS 300 is like a 4-door Supra because

>muh 2 jay zee

>traction control

People claim the base is so cancerous, but I've seriously never noticed it. I see people defending the RX-7 and GT-R all the time and criticize the Supra.

Maybe on CarThrottle, but I don't go there. And all the owners I've met (USA) have been pleasantly mature and friendly.

I know there are those who blindly defend them, but I honestly haven't seen that in a long time and have other, newer cars to worship.

I mean to say the rabid attack dogs have moved onto the newer flavor of the month car.

the A70 Supra does

the A80 is just shit

If a car is defined by its oil pressure gauge ...

in the used market right now, the A70 is a better buy.

The 7M-GTE isn't as easy to milk 1000 horsepower out of, but you can build it with the 25k you saved from not buying an A80.

A80's are stupidly overpriced for what they do.

Prices should drop in 2 years.

>Veeky Forums - oil pressure monitoring enthusiasts

Hey its me, I have one of those.

Extra funny because you can just buy an aftermarket gauge so any car can have one.

Its a 90s Toyota, they are all hideous.

literally just the engine block
it's the japanese counterpart to the 2003 cobra

>so glad i can still trigger you cucks
kek
your
self

Have owned 2, can confirm that even in stock form this whole meme of "shit handling" is completely false.

>torque
>V8 vs I6

Chasers are great, though I don't think comparable to a Supra in terms of purpose.

Agreed 100%

2JZ, Speed, Cultural Importance, being good.

Mostly 2jz

Literally no.
