Underworld Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Just saw this on cliosport forums: "They need 400bhp to stick with your average 300bhp car due to the weight of them." - Discuss Whos been racing eh? I beg to differ. I went up against one of the guys who's respected on one of the supra forums (lucifer or something?). Think he's got 450bhp. He was quicker but there wasnt feck all in it really! Wasnt getting away anyway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham S Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Yeh right, we should all sign up onto the clio forum and ask if anyone wants to swap a TT for a clio as we want something quick! All chavvy chat I think, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlotte Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 I'm a member of that site, cause it gets me discounts to the renault garage in Portsmouth. They are mostly chavs indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamc Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Do they offer discount at other renault dealers?? As I have a clio as a run around... and that 1200 is definitely faster than my supra!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt H Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Ive got a 1.2 clio too, slow as anything, but i presume their talking about their 2.0 variable valve timeing cr*p. i dont think ive ever seen a car with true VVT that actually makes the HP that the manufacturers claims, Honda Civics, Colt Cyborgs, all down on what they should be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

how_supra Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 I've just bought a little 1.2 clio too for a runaround. We are all the same. [well we're not, but i like to pretend we are ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll see if I can remember my password and check it out. Oooo I could do a big 'oh yeah they're all twats on the supra site' type thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tricky-Ricky Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Unless your up against a 300bhp Saxo then you might have trouble;) just for comparison the J spec supra weighs 10kg less than an R32 GTR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cable Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Got a friend who just sold his Clio 182 sport. He had it chipped and fitted a filter and thought his car was about 210bhp!! What with his assumed power to weight ratio he thought his 0-60 would be around 5.2 secs!!! Do people not realise how hard it is to make more power out of an N/A??

grahamc Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Go for it Charlotte... I had a go against a V5/V6 midengine "whatever" thing in my WRX impreza in South Africa. The WRX bet it, but not by a hell of a lot... I only had an exhaust and induction kit... So a 400bhp supra tear it a new A**H***E!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DamanC Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Im on there too, pimping tints! They are a tad on the daft side bless them. Tbh i dont think anyone that doesnt own a supra know how little they actually weigh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dibbleyuk Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 how much does a supra acturly weigh i see so many different figures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 I've signed up and there'll be a mildy offensive post on there later tonight as an area in which to vent my anger and job frustration. Supra weight - about 1,500kg I think is the correct ballpark figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibson Trimming Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 I'm a member of that site too..They hate everything we do so its always fun to show them what they can't afford..lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colsoop Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Be careful saying they are all slow. When i was at Shakespeare county raceway a stripped out clio 172 did a 13.8 quarter mile ! Supras are not heavy really, i think they are about 40 kg's heavier (rz spec) than the latest evo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
