Guest Koose Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Hey folks My names Mark but most people call me Koose(long story), i opped along here because I have an opurtunity to buy a manual N/A Mk4 in A1 condition for not alot. Only thing is, it feels dog slow till 5k then really obviously perks up till 6500ish. Is this normal? It 'feels' very slow below then, i mean similar to the works mondeo 1.8 . I already have the Supras slightly camp little brother a 1995 Rev3 MR2 turbo. Anyone know any common faults, facts and figures?

RobSheffield Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Hi Mark The NAs generally are quite slow til 5000, its just the way they are. You sure you wont get bored with an NA? I drive a rev 2 turbo MR2 and its quite nippy, so maybe thats why the NA Supra feels so 'slow' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Koose Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Wow thanks for such a warm welcome guys, very kind. Its a real bizaare drive the N/A supra, i thought being a 3.0litre engine and having 210lb.ft of torque itd at least feel like say a Vectra V6 or something but it just feels lifeless. Id love to see a vid of a known healhty one, although this seems healthy just gutless below 5. Very tempted to flog my three cars and get a TT, just worried the fuel costs would kill me!!!

Guest Koose Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Really? I could live with it if it was somewhere similar. I get around 220-240 miles to 40litres of optimax in the MR. Supra Turbo has been my dream car for 10 yrs. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
