Re: Supra TT vs 3000GT VR4

funny guy, first of all its awd not 4wd there's a difference. second there is no slippage with our cars you rev it to 5800rpm and drop it takes off with tire slippage at all, it is a proven fact that awd is better of the line than a supra, better of the line then basically anything in its class. need to go check your facts some more, and i'm very aware to fast autos.com you need to do somore research.

Re: Supra TT vs 3000GT VR4

who told you supras shut off at 155? never heard that before. The vr4 will win off the line, no doubt about that but after about the 60 ft when the secondary turbo on a supra kicks in, there is a major difference in the supra. the best thing about a auto supra is that once you build your boost, it never lets go, you have it till you let off the gas. The vr4 will hold it's own but the supra will most likely win the race.

welllll welll welll. Just so happens that I have BEEN in a VR-4 when it raced a supra TT. Both were stock, we were all friends so it was all set up, and Supra took it 3/3 times by about a car length or so. I love both cars....maybe the supra a little more . You have a good chance @15psi if the Supra is stock...

Re: Supra TT vs 3000GT VR4

well stock for stock the supra should be able to beat the vr-4
they do have the same hp/tq rating but dont forget that the vr-4 is a little heavier

Re: Supra TT vs 3000GT VR4

ummm...its all into the driver. but slightly towards Supra, highway: Supra, stoplight: VR4. Havent you guys seen that vid of a VR4 goin against that yellow Supra, and towards the end, the guys in the VR4 were like:"WHHHHHOOOOOOAAAA!!!" then the Supra FLEW past by them. BUT, i still think the Supra TT still gots it. Trust me, on the Highway, a VR4 has no chance against the Supra TT.

I'm pretty sure that the supra is faster. yes,they have the same horsepower and torque. but the 3000GT is very heavy and has wider gears. but it all depends on the driver.
