steady_eddie Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 right i own a 89turbo manual supra that i have just done the head gasket on and its running about 260-270BHP im not tsure of its 0-60 or anything like that but it feels pretty dam fast to me (not as fast as yours i no ) i have to oportunity now to sell it and by a mkiv non turbo manual jap import 90,000kms speedo converted to miles but not odo. cat back exhaust, induction kit, lowerd. it has no history as its only just come from japan, its a 1994 L reg car in silver. looks really nice took it for a drive feels straight and pretty quick to(for a NA car) 3 months parts and labour warranty and a cert to certify the miles are correct, hpi etc etc for £5200, now i like the mkiv the only thin i dont like is th head lights but you dont look at them when your driving. my question is wich one will be faster i already know the mkiv is more reliable and alot nicer drive and better handling etc etc. so i was wonder>>>260-270bhp car weighing in at 1550kg >>>230-240bhp car weighing iin at 1200kg wich one is faster??? i am not really worring about how hard to work on etc etc as im a mechanic but your the supra experts........

Jake Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 Mate, if you want 'faster' why don't you wait until you can afford say 7k and get an auto TT? Sounds like your the sort of guy who'll be wanting the extra speed once the honeymoon period is over (I know I am:D) Edit to add: Thinking about it, I bet you're also a Manual-Only man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
