rxv8 Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Supra whatever the spec sounds nicer. Don't get me wrong, the Skylines sounds very nice, but the larger CC of the Supra beats it every time. Prefer a large capacity V8 over them both though yehhhhhhhhh a supra with a chevy v8 in it...

CJ Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 I.e. a drainpipe straight from the manifold Can't beleive it never got pulled for the noise it made! [off topic] Any idea what happened to it after to after Steve sold it? It doesn't seem to have shown up since? I haven't seen nor heard (pardon the pun) anything of it since. I really liked that car and probably missed it more than the Orange one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Thats an Audi V8 and doesn't count, too high revving and efficient to sound like a real V8. LOL:p The new S5 is a V10, same as the gallardo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl_S Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Followed a skyline the other day with what I believed was an RB25 single turbo in it. Sounded nice yeah they are nice. But supra sound is nicer. Mine is anyway. Standard I would rate them bout equal in looks though. I'll prob keep my skyline too as my daily driver. As for v10's. I'm sure it does sound nicer, but v6 is a sensible compromise in my opinion. V 10's are mostly exotics. supra aint no exotic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joeatphr Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 I agree to the Supra sounding nicer over the Skyline. The choice between the car's are tough, I would just have both. We are getting a few Skylines in doing R&D work for Twin and Big Single Turbo Setups along with Internal and External Fuel Systems to back it up. In a few month the New Skyline will be delivered to our door to see what we have to work with. Cheers, Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burna Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 I.e. a drainpipe straight from the manifold Can't beleive it never got pulled for the noise it made! It was crazy loud but surprisingly very tame when inside the car, no drone or anything and quieter than most aftermarket exhausts I've heard, was very strange [off topic] Any idea what happened to it after to after Steve sold it? It doesn't seem to have shown up since?

mikeyb10supra Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Big singled supra, followed by BPU supra followed by skyline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joeatphr Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Joe are you getting the gtr's or the gtst's in? It will be the new R35 GTR with what ever engine option comes in because we are not allowed to choose since we are getting first dibbs. Its going to be a V6 TT I beleive.

Snooze Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 "Skyline" sounds nicer. The second syllable just rolls off the tongue instead of the hard "PR" in the middle of "Supra". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hadyn Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Funnily enough tonight I spotted an R32 (possibly GTR) as I was walking my dog. Was very loud and pretty hardcore and the guy didnt even have a vent to atmos bov. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
