3000gt vr4 vs Supra turbo

so i'm getting on the freeway and this 3rd gen supra is getting on also
but he's in the lane beside me, he's not paying too much attention at first but then he hears my BOV tshhhhhh, so he gets right behind me revving his engine, once we cross the bridge while he's an inch away from my bumber we merge on the freeway. getting on the freeway theres a big circle it swerves around with a limit sign saying 10mph around turn. well i took off and and he followed, i hit that corner with every piece of aws that i had and once it straightend out he was about 3 car lengths behind me then i give it all the juice, and gave him about 4 more car lengths. he finally slows down, i can tell cause i really started gaining car lengths.

nice kill. got lucky though cause a 3rd gen Supra Turbo should have you. I know you have some mods and what they are but he should still be a bit faster.

i think he's thinking 4th gen,
only way a 3rd gen would stand a chance against a stock vr4 would be on a 60mph roll.

Ha yeah aren't really well known for their blazingly fast acceleration or lack thereof but with a few mods Supra's don't have no problem taking out anything from a roll.

Re: 3000gt vr4 vs Supra turbo

I woulda thought a Mk4 Supra would hand a Vr4 its ass in handling.......maybe he/she wasn't trying on the turn or lacked a set of balls lol. Supras have some excellent road holding stock and Id have to say the opposite of a vr4. I've seen some of those going at it and the body roll and grip didn't look too good, plus it seemed like it had some bad understeer. You own one though what do I know.

Third gen Supra means MKIII, as in 88-92 Supras.

Well most the racing Ive seen ALOT of modded vr4's walk away from supras. Most recent race was on kazaa. Supra vs 3000gtvr4. the vr4 just walked away from the 4th gen supra. Then after the race was over the supra did a ricer drive by. Not saying supras are slow. But a modded vr4 is something elce.

Close 86.5 to 93.5, I don't really understand what it was that made them release the MkIII and the MkIV mid-way through a year...but anywho,

"Not saying supras are slow. But a modded vr4 is something elce."

I dunno about that one with the same amount of money invested into both I say the Supra would walk it from a roll every time, but from a dig would be a completely different story. Also we are talking MkIV's right and not a Vr4 vs a MkIII which would also be a different outcome since the MKIII's top speed isn't as high as the MKIV.

You must have run into one of those rare non-modified turbo supras and/or a NA model. Supras are a killer from a roll. Heck even on the juice my LS1 wouldn't put a dent in a single turbo Poopra w/ the right fuel modifications.

My bad. I wasn't thinking. for some reason I assumed you were takling about 4th gen. In that case you're right you should beat a 3rd gen supra turbo in your VR4 even without mods. They're quick but VR4's are quicker.
