I'm not talking up mine at all, im just saying that a stock supra NA, id love to see one of them do a 14.9 because every supra NA i have come up to i have pulled away with out much trouble. Unless mine does better than 14.9 but i doubt that. I will have to take mine down to calder one day to show you what it runs.

I'm not necessarily trying to beat the supra in a race just yet, I just want to tune the engine so it has more power- I'm dropping a 6-speed, 3.8:1 diff gears and a light weight tail shaft to put the power down so thats not a worry, it's just that I'm pretty sure supra's already have something along those lines.
So in theory I just need to get more power at the flywheel, my EF will weigh a similar amount and I should be winar. -also the NA supras only have ~160 odd kw, so with my driveline overhaul I should already be able to smoke them

with all due respect, an N/A supra auto vs my Tickford 6 auto, the ford beat it, the N/A supra's arent that good, they are quickish considering their weight but it wasn't able to beat my fairmont.

Yeah exactly, i wonder if the people that are saying they go quick have actualy raced one? They are 165kw @5900rpm, 290nm @3500rpm and weigh 1440kg. So its pretty much the same power to weight ratio as a ED XR6 with 70odd nm of torque less.

So what, you've jumped a couple on the street to 80ks?
Impressive stuff there!

The thing you have to keep in mind is they have a DOHC 3.0L thats built like a brick s**t- So in theory if they did the same sort of N/A mods as me they will probably go faster - I guess I'm banking on them being unmodified. The main point of the excersise though is my ford cost me $2k, the transmission conversion will probably set me back by 3k, tail shaft and the various N/A mods about another 1k - whereas a supra by itself costs at least 12k, and that would be for a fked one.

Wow, such angry people in here. I'm not going to argue with Gezza. If he says his car can beat N/A Supras, then I believe it. Most non-turbo Supras/Skylines will be driven by p***y p-platers who probably don't know s**t about cars anyway. Stop trying to start fights.

What happens on the street, stays on the street, don't bring it onto the forums and pretends it's a useful performance comparison. I've jumped MY01 WRXs to 80 before because the drivers have bogged the launch (like 80% of the ones that a care about their cars do), doesn't mean I go around claiming EDs are quicker then WRXs, that would be stupid.

yep if i can recall, gezza's car has disposed of a wide range of performance vehicles turbo skylines etc, so looks to be quite the street warrior
Should really take it to the track first as a fair comparision, as how do you know your car isnt pulling high 15's at the moment???? |

ditto. What's the point of this thread anyway? Do you have a specific car you want to beat or are you just generalising? If generalising its about as useless as masterbating in a cold bath...
