My favorite quote from the seller:
"Please do not e-mail me asking for 1/4 mile times as the car never made a full pass due to traction problems that have since been resolved"

Well, what did you expect with 1250hp!

 

1250 hp I love Supras but no thanks I don't want a trailer or dyno queen. My choice would be one with about 500 to 550 whp. That's more than enuff to take out any car on the street.

 

Holy turbo, Batman!! And 32-42 lbs boost!

 

But what good is all that power if you can't put it to the pavement?

 

My friend has a twin turbo Linginfelter C5 Corvette with a 6 speed manual tranny. I always ask him about recent kills and he said he recently lost to a single turbo Viper only because the race started from 80 mph. He chose fourth gear and spun badly while the less powerful Viper was able to accelerate. He also fishtailed a bit so he let off. What really bothered him was that he could have won, and that the Viper guy thinks he beat a TT Linginfelter Corvette even up. So my buddy has just ordered slicks that can be used on the street to hopefully prevent the wheelspin next time. His WHP dyno by the way was 830 HP!!!!

 

That reminds me of that Top Secret R34 GTR (Best Motoring I think) that had so much power the guys running both stated it was "just too powerful" (paraphrase).

Power is on only as good as what you can effectively put to the pavement.

 

damn... thats a lot of power....

 

That turbo is so big, he had to cut a hole in the hood!

I hope he has some sort of cover to prevent debris from it up!

 

damn that a huge turbo, very nice car...

 

What does a 400hp, 600 hp and a 800hp Supra all have in common?

They all do the 1/4 in 10 seconds

 

I thought it was "they all run 12s"

 

Sad, but kinda true, although I know a cat with a 10-second Supra (Single) and a couple of 11-second Supra TTs. There's another one around here that's an 11-second Supra, with stock twins, stock clutch, and no FMIC... ).

 

that car is ridiculous. the turbo itself sucks cold air right through the custom hood scoop! NUTS.

 

32-42lbs boost is insane.

Thats a ton of power.

 

hater!


who the hell cares if you can say you got that much power :pfawk:

 

Those guys gutted out a 350Z that they are building for the track... Brand new car ripped apart. Tubbed and everything!!

 

Dyno queen. WIth a turbo that big i'm betting it takes a LONG time to spool.

 

holy shiat

i'll take 2
and some spare axels...

 

thats the thing about Supras though, you can have a street driven monster that doesn't HAVE to be trailered!

 

ever heard of drag slicks

 

 

and properly tuned ones are as relaible as a stock lexus

 

try 12/10/8 sec quarters

 

you are correct sir.

 

you have much to learn, grasshoppa.

 

daaiiimmm!

maybe he can drive it on the street with dot tires but i don't think he'll get to many races with that parachute on the back.
talk about intimidating.

 

LMAO!!!! i bet you i could beat him, by the time he gets traction in that thing i;ll be a couple of miles away.

 

And don't forget its a 2 speed AUTOMATIC! hehe

That is a drag only Supra.

 

sorry matt, i got alot more under my belt i'm afraid to say

 

come back at me when your done your shop apprenticeship and all this time i thought you were one of the cool ones here
just cuz you peeps have been on these forums longer doesn't mean you know more:shakehd:

 

Matt was right with what he said. You are wrong.

The reason why matt is right is even stated in the ebay auction. And stated by many other folks who have big single dawgs.

what, there is 1 US supra in the 8's right now? And a lot of the 800 HP cars are only turning 11's, 10's w/ only a single handfull in the 9's maybe. Don't know much about supras do you?

 

obviously you don't

 

how many of you here work on cars for a living? or even had any automotive training?

 

so lets not start talkin shit like you know your way around the field oh yeah, and

 

I was ASE certified.... ( I stopped turning a wrench a few years ago)

but WHAT THE HELL DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING?

Just because YOU have had training DOES NOT MEAN YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT WITH SUPRAS.

sheesh... pull your head out of your ass.

So your a trained know it all. In other words your a young arrogant fool.




So what experience with Supras makes you the expert?

 

There are two supra's in the 8s right now in the US

Titan Motorsports - 8.52 @ 169 best
MSP (Motorsports Performance) - 8.28 @ 168 best

numerous other cars run consistent 9s - even with the stock 6 speed in the car still but auto's are king for drag racing.

Hey Titan,
Do you guys run auto now in the Sup or are you guys still using the 6-speed? I remember a while back that Titan held the record for the quickest street class, 6-speed Supra; did something like an 8.9 or something. Still impressive!!! So would Ryan Woon now hold the record for the quickest street driven 6-speed Supra???

I built this






I also have about a handfull of friends/associates w/ supras.


what have you done?

 

Congrats on breaking 8's, I haven't been keeping up the last few months. I know there are a good hanfull or so of other cars in the 9's. Not A lot though.
