Thanks it does look nice just feels slow imo thinking the pod filter won't be helping performance either gave Keron a ring not got any oem air box :/ and he said about 3k for tt conversation that sound about right? I might sell it how much you offering mate? Lol

Does n/a auto really feel that slow? I don't know the real performance figures for auto, but manual is like 6.0 -6.2 sec to 60mph. Have to be a damn fast diesel lol. Of course i know that mid range in modern diesel is very good (and n/a supra isn't), but eventually they will run out of buff. They really are not that fast, they only feel fast. My ex car was 150hp/350nm diesel and you really can't compare the performance of these two cars together.

I would say it is more like 7 seconds 0-60. My Corrado VR6 is supposed to do it in about 6.5, and it accelerates noticeably faster to 80 than an NA Supra.

 

Speed is relative, it depends what you're used to.

Auto or manual?

 

Edit: I have driven n/a auto only once, but it did have a bad box so i can't comment about performance.
