Hi people,

 

Ive recently broke my nissan skyline running a nice 600bhp.

im looking for a replacement car, ive always wanted a supra the 6-speed twin turbo

 

What kinda performance is possible on stock engine mods, or just basic mods, i found my GTST hard to control in the wet and that resorted to front end damage :'(

Any advise is appreciated

 

Im stuck between buying a GTR or Supra twin turbo!

 

Regards

Ash

600hp out of a Supra TT will be expensive. You will be much better off spending £15k (or less if you're lucky) on a pre built 600hp single turbo car, that has been built by someone who knows what they're doing.

No offence mate but if you found a gtst lively in the wet a supra probably isn't for you. A stock TT can be a handful, to drive a 600bhp one you'd want to be very much awake!

Very much agree with this, I'd say get a GTR if I where you if you don't mind a R33or R32 there's a few good GTR's for sale I've seen around the 12k mark with between 550-600bhp
