    Supras with 900 rwhp that run 12's and have 24" wheels so they can't turn you mean? And Silvas? What is this a rice forum now....

    Supra with 900rwhp is going to run a wee bit faster than 12's...

    I agree with you Dave, we should race. Can you imagine though if I raced every joker who said "my car is faster than your car"? Besides, I don't need to seek out races with the new Z, I already did it. However, if I run into someone on the street, I'd be happy to do it all over again.

    Duuuhhhhhhh, you mean the 24 inch rims don't make it go faster? I got your point, which incidentally was hardly a snappy comeback for Dave's comment. Save your simple-minded comebacks for the boys at the dragstrip.

    Um, no fan-boy....
    Supra's are known as dyno-queens....they have big dyno numbers
    but can't run the number without being back-halfed.

    So yes, it was over your close-minded head.

    Wow, you mechanical wizard, you! Mommy must be very proud of her little sunshine. Anytime I want to know how fast a car goes, I'll ask you! You know, with all of your previous hands-on ownership experience, and such (Previous Cars Owned: "To many"). Try Spelling 101. Maybe the word "too" is over your head? I see English was not one of your best subjects.

    i come here to talk about italian machinery, cuz thats wat i drove and love, now obviously some of you are obsessed with domestics, thats all good, but if i recall its an italian car forum, i do not go on Camarochat or Fbodies to trash talk them on how my twinturbo supra can kill their boats.....

    I never once trashed F-cars....I love them....hence while I'm here. You need to read....By the way, I owned a '97 M6 TT Supra, so I know all about them....they are over-priced, and need lots of upgrades to overcome there heft. Nice cars yes, but WAY over-rated.

    Cool video. You however forgot to mention that the car has aftermarket headers and no catalytic converters. Depending on the engine and breathing characteristics of it, this can mean some solid power gain. I know with my Murcielago, it made a humungous difference. I would leave stock Murci's in the dust.

    Nevertheless, cool video.

    Yes, and no. Depends on how you use it. If you want bang for the buck, then yes, cubic inches work. Too bad they couldn't acheive the hp/L figures that some other manufacturers have, then you'd see some sick horsepower. But then, it is unlikely that the car would be a $70K vehicle.

    but, isn't it the end result that matters ?? don't the torque numbers suck on high hp/L motors??
