Hey,

If you guys (and girls) could, please let me know, if this is good for drift:

85-86 Celica Supra, lightweight, nice amount of power not too big, good
ratios, can make a lot of mods (probably going to need to seeing how old it is).
hatchback,uncommon, ummmm, if you ppl know more please share your wealth! lol.
And I am trying to find the specs but, it has become quite hard to find them all together or without modifications to the car.

alright, well, I thank you all, later ^_-

Hey,

Yeah I know, not all FR cars are great for drift but is this one?, man I can't find Sh!t for specs on this thing, and I need to know if this would be a good drift car, cause well I might buy one since, not alot of ppl in my area have one, and they are inexpensive, lightweight, and a good amount of power (which wll be upgraded ^_^).

But, yeah those are all the things I have been hearing from different sites but none of them post the specs, which annoys me because all these different ppl could jus be saying what they heard and not the real specs.

Alright, if any of ya could help me out, that'd be cool, thanks, later.

actaully im gunna retract my last statment, as long as their semi light and have a fair amount of power....my moms v6 mustang with the stock 200ci motor.........not so good at drifting

That's because V6 mustangs suck.... in my own opinion of course.

but speaking of drifting, I've been meaning to try out my 84 GT liftback for a while... just haven't had the chance to. Anyone know how well it would do?

also, does anyone have the HP and torque numbers for the 1984 GT? it's got the 2.4 4-cylinder

[COLOR=sienna][FONT=century gothic][SIZE=2][B][CENTER]Hey,
thanks very much for your opinion, thanks. Anyone else want to share?,

I wish I had the weight or curb weight of this darn car!, everybody says something different, on site said it was 2790 (heavy!!!) and another said it was a couple hundred over a thousand!m what the heck!, lol, alright thanks for the info and everything, I'll keep checkin back here if anyone has anything else to say about the 85 Celica Supra.

Oh yeah, on the back of an 85 Supra (same car), it said Supra Turbo, and on the front (the grill) of one it said Turbo, ppl coulda just put em' there I guess **Shruggs**

thanks, later.

i would put the vvti 3sge rwd motor in that its like 210 hp i think all motor, but they are very expensive and hard to find

The 3S-GE will only make 200 hp if it's turbocharged, which would actually make it a 3S-GTE.

hahahaha they stopped making 3sgte's in 93 in america, 96 in europe and 98 in japan.... and none of them had vvti or vvtl-i and they only came in 190Hp, 200Hp(only rwd 3sgte, in mr2's), 225Hp, (jdm 2nd gen) and 260HP(3rd gen)

actually the 3sgte still came in the usdm mr2 until 1995

the mr2 was produced until 1999 in japan so i kno they had some 3sgte's then but i think that they still use a 3sgte in the current turboed caldinas which would mean they still produce them

anyways he never said 3sgte either... he said 3sge so im assuming that hes talking about the red top beams 3sge that came in 1998 - 1999 n'a mr2s which produced 210hp with single vvt-i (unlike the rs200's black top dual vvt-i)

as for the generations
2nd 225hp
3rd 245
then i kno there was one which did have 260 but it was not the 3rd it came afterwards ill look it back up later

mine was in reference to cedlica 3sgte...for got about mr2's :)

what are those generations for...the 3sge? or 3sgte?

1st gen 3sgte---190 HP
2nd gen--------200Hp
jdm 2nd gen----225 HP
3rd gen--------260 HP

im not so sure about the 3sge... but i kno that they originally had 135hp then usdm 1994 -1995 they came with 140... and jdm 1994 + 3sge came with 170.. then in 1998 it turned to beams with 210hp red top 215 black top
