Suprash Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Mate what you have to remember on here some people have been spoilt with too much power for too long, so to them an N/A might seem slow.... You will be fine though, and love it, and even if after a few months you start to crave more power like everyone else, the love and admiration you will get for the car will keep you smiling everytime you walk out to her in the mornings.... N/A's a very hard to extract more power from, but dont buy the car for the performance modifying route. But the best advice I can give it test drive them, then you'll know whether you will fall in love with the car, you'll no one the one when you get in it....

SILKYSMOOTH Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 If 0-60mph in just under 6 seconds is too slow for you then get a TT, I have to say I do love powerfull cars and my N/A is no exception. It's still very quick and very smooth through the gears. Fast enough for the streets of the UK and you will still beat 9 out of 10 cars in most circumstances.

Tom Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 If I was to buy an N/A I'd forget the basic powergrades completely, if you want a quicker n/a, then I'd be lightening it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Headroom Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Remember the Supe is 13,14 years old and over time the quoted 220bhp for the NA would have dropped to about 190 - 200 bhp. Saying that they are a fantastic daily driver and more manageable than the TT. At the end of the day its a Supe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turbonut Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 ......... and then turn it to a handling car..... ??? Fellah, toyota poured large amounts of money into the performance of this beast, including the suspension. It is an extremely well balanced car as stock, it only becomes unbalanced when theres a total c@ck behind the wheel!!! Not been patronising here but the N/A shares the majority of components with the TT and handles beatifully - just make sure you have good rubber underneath A set of coilovers would be a useful mod but get the geometry checked right at the start and you cant go wrong Any rwd car will be twitchy around the bends with in excess of 200bhp but thats part of the fun, learning its and your limits Its no slouch, the manual box is responsive and fun and you will get miles of smiles - one of the few coupe's produced EVER that has looks AND great performance, both N/A and TT....and the Single conversions will blow your mind...

tooquicktostop Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I am really enjoying the drive of the stock TT6 I just purchased, only had singles before and the stock car is very smooth, quiet and the power as ALWAYS on tap, the single is a very different story, a lot more respect is needed especially in these weather conditions,I think once you have experienced the added push a turbo or turbos gives it would be hard to go to an NA, so the trick is dont drive a turbo car it will make you want one, I will be keeping the single for dry weekends going forward (Roll on Suprapod 08) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linda x I never said the supra handled crapply but not many have the balls to throw them into the corners at speed incase they end up climbing trees, smart decision yes but I would love to have the confidence to throw 1 in corners at speed hence why when I make the purchase in the new year I'm off to see chris wilson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miko_supra Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 if you want to get more power out of an n/a realistically...then the only way is n/a-tt or n/a-t check out http://www.clubna-t.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
