Supra Na-T mk3 vs mk4

[peter551984]

I know there are some difference and the weight of the driver also depend, but since I think the use the same trans W58 the can get to the same time in a 1/4 mile... so basically since the supra

make that time a supra mk3 can get to the same goal, true or false and why...

 

[hvyman]

It had 500hp according to the comments.

W58 doesn't hold up very long at that power level.

Get 500 hp and see where your at.

 

[peter551984]

I ok know they don't that long... what about
a. 450hp
b. 400hp
c. 350hp

 

[peter551984]

OHHH one another thing... can it be posible with a maft pro... on a 7mgte with a w58...

 

[hvyman]

Maft pro sure. W58 not so much.

Some will hold 350 fine some will hold 400 for a while. Some wont. And if you put power to it a lot it's not going to last very long.

 

[peter551984]

I think that car that 2jz has 505hp on a w58

 

[peter551984]

the one on the video

 

[hvyman]

Ya. Also has a comment that it blew up shortly after.

 

[peter551984]

but basically the one thing that breaks thats trans (w58) is power or torque...?

 

[hvyman]

Torque.

W58 is a weaker trans. No where bear as strong as the r154.

 

[peter551984]

ok but diffficult is to install or tune my car with w58

 

[hvyman]

?

A w58 will last longer in a car that weighs less. It's really the amount of torque applied to the transmission that breaks stuff. The easier it is to actually move the car, the less stress there is on the driveline. Weld the rear brakes to the brake callipers, and you could break all kinds of driveline stuff with a stock 7M-GE.

For dragstrip times, you can get whatever you have the power/weight and traction for. Same power/weight, same traction, and you'll get a similar 1320.

If a 7M-GTE easy to install in front of a W58? Sure. Easy as pie. If you used a Mk4 W58, those are supposed to have a stronger input shaft, though if you're going to go that far, I'd just get the R154... Oh wait. I did just get the R154.
