Gaz Walker Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 So, Gaz, having seen both the RS*R Supra and the Top Secret Supra, which you you buy if you wone the lottery and had to buy on or the other? Tough call, I'd probably say the TS car though, its more of a road car. You couldn't pop to the shops in the RS-R car for example! Gaz.

That's what I was thinking. It's just that I really love the look of the RS*R. As you know a thing or two about a thing or two when it comes to cars. I have a question for you. With a V8 or V12 engine in plus tubbies would a Supra pull better off boost than a 2jz with the same turbo(s)? Would it be less hampered by lag than a normal single or true twin set-up etc?

jase_93tt Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 Nice. Not sure about the front headlight style though. Gonna try and visit their shop when I visit Japan (again!) in a couple of months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it be less hampered by lag than a normal single or true twin set-up etc? It would pull better yeah. But the beauty of running a bigger engine is that you can afford to run smaller tubbies, giving better response/lag. A V8 is the ideal compromise I would say, that Australian car will be awesome when its done. The V12 IMHO is too big, not sure if you noticed but they had to put the radiator in the rear as there is so little room! They could have went really stealthy and kept the radiator up front and run the turbo's remotely like that M5 has done (was on here the other day), that would have been a hell of a job though! Gaz.

paul mac Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 very nice car, top respect that looks some excellent technical achievement, however those Takata harnesses look like an example of how NOT to mount harnesses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mattsupra1 Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 is that kit available to buy? i doubt id ever be able to afford it but i think it would look amazing with no stickers and a subtle paint job like a grey off a lambo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt H Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 Anyone else think the twin exhausts would look better if they were bigger? seem a bit on the small side to me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
