^I'm starting to hate those jokes... really. The extra 25kw you have doesn't make your shit move a lot faster, don't forget that.

Exactly. If you want quick N/A... sell the supra, pickup a cheap POS 94 civic hatch and throw an H22 in there. You'll be faster then 90% of the 7MGTE Supras on the road.

Uhmmm...No

Nitrous not good from a stand still? It is the easiest way to reduce quarter miles times. Don't base your knoweldge on movies where they push buttons on the steering wheel. If that is what you did. The solenoid is activated when the throttle closes. After the bottle is opened and the circuit is activated. In other words, nitrous is made for the standing start.



well, I was considering the fact that my 99.9% stock N/A will fishtail like a motherfucker, even with brand new 245 Kuhmo Ecstas, when I drop the clutch; figured more power in the beginning would be bad....

Go turbo??? turbos and nitrous are both forms of forced induction, so does that mean that turbos are the expensive form of steroids?

Ignorant statement.

One word, torque.

Go do some homework on the area under the curve on the torque side of the equation and come back and make that statement.

If you think your N/A is almost as fast as a turbo, you haven't been in a turbo.

(Have owned them all, NA & turbo, there's no comparison...)

Doesn't move alot faster is the same as saying almost as fast is it not?

You definately implied it.

Now depends on how you define a lot (and how you define ''fast'', though are the 1/4 mile times and 0-100kph sooooo different? 1,5/2 secs or how much?) ... okei, maybe I understand the meaning little differently. Let's forget that, I admit my mistake.
Still N/A is a car too, and it moves. Now everything lies in the hands of the seal between the seat and the steering wheel :D

What I don't get is...

You are looking for speed, and the car you own comes with the factory option of turbocharged. So why do you own the NON turbo model, the model people bought because they didn't want speed?

Because some of us didn't have time to go to the Supra store on the corner of 45th and Grand, and picked out the NA on purpose...

I told my dad to buy me a car and I'd pay him back, lickily my bro went with, and got the Supra...


That's the fucking reason why, some of us didn't have a choice, there's your answer..
