well heres the deal... i dont doubt per say that a supra can get up to or even maybe past 230... but lets think real, those cars are god damned heavy, and unless u lighten the hell out of that car ur not hittin no 60 mph from a standstill in freaking 1.056 buddy... unless of course u blow it out of a cannon. after a while maybe with all that weight you can keep the thing on the ground going 230 MAYBE on the worlds straightest road for a long time... but other then that i think maybe 180-200 sounds more like a beleiveable story.





edit: WAIT WHAT? 0-170 IN 8 SOMETHING? HAHAHAHAH MY ASS!!!! NO SUPRA CAN DO THAT UNLESS ITS DUCT TAPED TO A JET AIRPLANE!

Re: Unbeatable Supra

a supra can reach that speed, JUN made a supra called the "200 mile supra" that could top 200, and they also made the "akira supra" that hit 249mph, on the roadgoing supra platform, however a 230mph road-legal supra that you can drive to the store ? sounds unlikely.

one word to catch the car: roadblock.

where the hell did you get those figures ?

the worlds quickest and fastest GT-R is 1280bhp
running a 7.67 1/4 mile.
so a 1,500bhp supra runngin 8s ? no chance.

Looks like a couple of you guys need a quick lecture on how supras are doing on the tracks these days. *clears throat*

A 1500HP supra running 8's sounds un-likely. you should run a search for the name Marko D. Has most of his work done out of Sound Performance. Last time he dyno'ed the car it came out to 1520hp on race gas, no meth, no nitrous. And he made mid 8 second passes on his daily driven street car, I don't say that he had it trailered out there and back home, he drove it to the track and drove it back home.

Still don't believe me, look up the name Garth Weaver, runs Virtual Works out in Arizona. Before he sold his car to a guy in NC, he was making 8 second passes on 1034HP. This out of a car that during work hours, they go to get their coffee and lunch with. A supra with that much power and making 8 second passes can be done, but whoever this guy is who's claiming that is probably running his mouth.

Would you like to hear about how some of the 6 speed supras are doing?

Ryan Woon broke into the 8's a couple of months ago on a STOCK 6 speed tranny, as well as efantis did on a slipping clutch. And when you want to get crazy, look up a guy named Vinny ten, running a 6 second pass on a full out drag car.

Re: Unbeatable Supra

uhh ok, while you think that, you should look at all of those cars, they are full weight and full trim. Next time, you should do some research or at least know what your talking about.

Supras, Speed, And the "F&F" Syndrome

I have been looking for an MKIV for a damn long time now (went to look at several, im just being picky at this point). I have also done more damn research on this car then any other car ever made. I can say that any one who knows this car knows that 1000+HP is so damn common out of the 2JZ it might as well have come stock with it. 1000+HP AND FULL WEIGHT is also damn common, and very real. Speeds in the 180, 190, 200 mph range are also common out of a JZA80. BUT... I find it damn hard to believe that some lunatic was able to run his supra at 230 on the street, and with enough frequency that the police had to track him down and pick him up. That infernal movie made a whole generation of civic owners think that anything is possible, thanks to RICE!!! NO ONE IN THE WORLD could drive at that kind of speed frequently enough on city streets to warrant at onslaught of cops taking you down after your dinner. I live in Illinois, and where I live there is no way i could run that hot and have room to move around traffic. PLUS at 230 mph, if i went north east or west i would be in a god damn other state in an hour, but only after i filled up the tank with 110. SO all you people saying that the numbers posted are bogus, READ and RESEARCH before you start talking. People are making sick numbers now and they are only going to get better as technology improves. And as for our 230 mph Vin Disel, i would take that with a grain of salt! That’s just my two cents.

Re: Unbeatable Supra

I dont care if a car is going 1000mph...you cant outrun a radio. No high speed chase ends with the car in the owners garage.

Re: Unbeatable Supra

well lets see, radio waves are light. and light travels at around 200,000 miles per second (just a guess). ya, have fun trying to outrun that.

Re: Unbeatable Supra

You do not need to outrun the radio, just the cop that's making the transmission. If you are past his line of sight, he can't give your position. But anyways, this is a dead issue.
