View Full Version : New and curious
Hi, just been reading a few posts/threads but cannot find anything (nor on google) with accurate performance figures for the Supra :-( I am buying a Supra but not this side of xmas - for obvious reasons :eyebrows: Would any1 be kind enuff to post stats for: N/A - T - TT and also what sort of performance diff there is between Auto & Manual. And, if I ain't being too cheeky :p , bhp + torq's plz :D
Well hopefully soon I'll be posting more and more as I get to grips with it all. As soon as I get me supra I'll stick loads'a shots on ere' :innocent:

hiya and welcome, best bet is to use the search feature on here and go from there
I have been searching for like 30mins now on here - this site's got like everything i could ever want to know about a supra, just no1 posting about standard performance figures, from the 225bhp to the 330bhp (im using the BHP's as approx to my memory) :D :D :D
And Hello back to ya - yay a supra site thats half f**kin good =-]
And Hello back to ya - yay a supra site thats half f**kin good =-]
Sounds like you found "tumbleweed.com"
Gaz6002 nah mate, no idea what tumbleweed is :-) Ya know im just happy to have found a forum thats as "used" as this one, and which has soo many members - all talking and wanting the same thing :D fantastic.
hi
I don't understand.
1) There are lots of threads on here (and every other supra site) about auto v. manual.
2) What do you mean accurate performance figures ? Most if not all supras have some kind of modification. Over on this side of the planet, I can put my car back to stock in about half an hour and I don't know anyone else with a completely stock TT.
3) What difference are performance figures like that going to make to your purchase ?

there are tons of threads on here ref performance etc, i have just typed in 0-60 and this is one of the many threads thats came up
http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=79098&highlight=0-60
bcuz im after speed, looks, curves, sexy lines and a rear end that'll show J-Lo up :D But I want the non-turbo manual to be honest, unless it's slower then the car I have now (which is a Civic Type-R) in-which case i will have to opt for a turbo version... anyways i read alot of reveiws about supra's dotted all over the internet and alot, and i mean like 75% of them were saying Auto's are better and all the other jargen, But i want a manual, but at the same time I want reliability - - - DAMN IM CONFUSED :(
Thank you very much satnav - ya know i never even thougth of "0-60" lol im a muppet. cheers mate.
hello and welcome. If there isn't something about that in the FAQ section then you may well have highlighted an "ooprtunity" for us!!

I doubt that an NA manual Supra is slower than a Civic Type R, but I also suspect it's not significantly quicker. It makes more power but it's a pretty big car. As a driver, I'm not sure you will notice that much difference in power / 0-60 times.
If you really want a step in power, TT is the only way to go.

Yes she does. She gave me a desk calendar at the start of the year which is fairly popular in the office (this is one of the pics from it) - and I've been using her pics as avatars on the porsche forum. We keep meaning to take some more actually - will get around to it one day.
