Good question, I just assumed it was a TT Supra.



If he isn't, he has nothing more than a 4000lb carcass that looks nice.

I'll second the carcass, but not the nice looking part. Maybe the ass, but the front of an MKIV is hideous, so boring.

Yeah, Supras are only good for straight lines, dynos, and looks.

I used to work a guy that would autocross his Porsche all the time. He used to tell me stories of how FDs would smack the **** out of MKIV Supras all the time on the course, and how much more of a potent sports car the FD is compared to the Supra. They're just so bulky, great in a straight line, but anything else and they just can't match the FD's agility. Don't for a second ever think that I wouldn't take a 4th gen Supra (Turbo + 6spd only!) they're bad ass, and really intimidating! But I've been totally happy with my FD, and can't wait until I can spank my first Supra!

You beat a Supra top end? You must have some decent power because the MKIV's are built more top end on the stock trannies.

Last week at NPR, I was in attendence watching a final tune put onto a '96 MKIV single turbo automatic. It had N2O to 8 psi and all the bolt-ons. Nice wheel - tire - suspension pkg. It's a beautiful car. It's an intimidating-looking car. It's put together nicely. It's too slow w/ 12.5 sec. runs. The tranny's holding it back. God, I'm glad I don't own that car.



Yeah, they're overweight, luxo-pigs, but ****, if they'd shed the weight and the leather off their bloated carcasses, I think everyone would have problems going up against them no matter the venue. For now, it's good they haven't started slimming down https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/spam.gif
