People's reactions when riding in your supra

[noredline]

"do it again do it again"....when I shift
"is this a twin turbo"...I want to smack everyone that says that
"where the fuck did they put the door panel"....just like everyone else on here
"why don't you ever crank your stereo"...cause I want to hear the damn car..err
"my camaro could beat this"...5 seconds later "ohhh fuck well it would be close you have did admit that"...always said by my roomate jesse
"lets take the top off"
"lets take your car"
"does it pass emissions"....as of 12/26 it did....WOOHOOO

Sometimes mine goes into R perfectl, sometimes it won't go in without a battle, and sometimes it grinds like crazy...i guess it depends on how the Supra is feeling that day...

Yay! I'm glad I'm not the only one this happens to. I try to avoid using reverse whenever possible, haha. I hate it cause the Supra always grinds at the worst time... like right after someone gives me a compliment about it.

I gave my friend whiplash. And it died that night

 

[edi]

"holy shit" during the ride. and after the right, "umm, you left you car on" as we walk away...

lol, i once had 3 passengers in my car (not including myself), most of them weighing around ~200, all complaining how small it was in the back, and the crappy ride (compared to their lexus's and mercedes). a pretty fixed up crx pulled up to us and rev'd his engine a few times, i looked over and did the same, the light turned green and we went at it, he beat me off the line, but after i got into the the middle of 2nd i think i was up to him, and after that i was gone.. pretty cool, but i'm not sure if the guy was on full throttle though, the weight of my car had to be around 4200lbs

Most of my friends roll either Skylines, MKIV's or Silvia's that are faster then my GA70. So most of them are the least bit impressed Except by my mad tyte driving skillz yo!

 

[ForcedTorque]

^Anbody ever why they call our cars wide body? Check out RHDMK3's avatar. I have never seen one of those before. That's cool! What does your car weigh?

Why is there smoke coming out of the pipe?


Cause its so fucking hot


Ba da bump! :nono:

 

[born2drv]

Usually something like this .......... rolling start in 4th gear going like 30mph @2000rpms (I do this on purpose to build the anticipation)..... I floor it ....... "This isn't that fast" .... "Wait whats that noise?" .... "Aahhhhh!!!! slow down damn it!!!" .... "How do I get out of this stupid car???"

 

[ChadMKIII]

Yep, that would be because there are no synchros on reverse.


As for reactions, my personal favorite would be the look I get when I pull out a stopwatch. They look at me like WTF, and the ask me what it's for. I simply tell them that they will find out in a second, proceed to start the stopwatch and then get out of the car. Then, assuming they ever get out, they try to kick my ass for laughing at them so hard. The results are usually best when attempted at night on a dark street.:naughty:

Hold up, so do they all do that? Or is there some trick I'm missing...

And I can't WAIT to try that on the next person who rides in my car that hasn't learned it yet. Swweeeeettt. I might even try it on my parents, who STILL haven't got it figured out.....

[Setheroo]

Whats the sport button do?
Why does it stay flat when you take a turn?
Are you going to slow down? (right before I take some of our wild turns on some mountain roads)
I have never felt G forces before until just now.
(muscle car guys have said this) This is the only acceptable import I have ever ridden in.
Loud screams. (from the ladies)
I never had anyone complain about not finding the door handle - but I can see where people have found it hard to find. - I see my passenger searching for it, and they eventually get to it, but none have ever spoke up about it.

My absolute favorite is this - 110 feels like 70 I didn't know that we were going THAT fast - DAMN.

 

[masterchief819]

"AHHHHHhhhhhh!!"

 

[lifesnotfair]

Several people have had trouble finding the door handle as well on my car.

[thedave925]

Turbo spool and BOV never gets old.
A friend was asking how to get out and ripped out the lock bezel midsentence Grrr!
As for reverse, I have the best luck when the rpms are about 650

[RazoE]

650?

dont think me engine's ever run that slow..:lol:

 

[Dirgle]

Hold up, so do they all do that? Or is there some trick I'm missing...

You got it

1st through 5th gear use constant-mesh synchros, which is what most people have come to know as standard synchros. Reverse utilitizes a sliding-mesh synchronization, which is what most people consider as having no synchros at all. Many transmissions of this era were like this.

 

[RazoE]

so how do we get into reverse without looking/sounding like a noob?
