http://www.titanmotorsports.com/200mphcelica.html The Mkiv Supra is a GT roadracer...to compare it with a rustang that can barely corner is rediculous. Sure you can build a solid-axle rustang to win in the 1/8th cheaper than you can a Mkiv Supra. If they think that makes the rustang a superior overall 'sportscar', then I'm truly happy for them. I wish I had the time to join that forum and defend the Supra's honor, but for me it's a case of been-there-done-that. About a year or so ago I spent a couple of weeks of spare time arguing with similar types on I think it was exoticcarforums. Although I got the main person I was arguing with to admit I could easily (and quite cheaply) upgrade an Mkiv Supra to tear his ~550hp at the crank Firebird a new one...on pump gas with water injection (those types always like to bring up the race gas thing), in the end he didn't officially concede or anything...he and his 'fanboys' just abandoned the thread. In the end I feel it was pretty much a big waste of time, since most of them will continue to believe whatever they choose, no matter what evidence is presented. Like they say, arguing on the internet is like the special olympics...

Not to mention the 4.6l puts out about 300hp while a 2.8l on the supra puts out around 340. I guess ford loves to waiste their displacement. |

Fwiw, the only domestic production v8s that I have any interest in is the ZR-1 Corvette's LT5, and the 5.4L engine in the Ford GT. Imo, if Chevy had put even 1/10th the r&d into the LT5 as they did with their stupid pushrod, 2-valve-per-cylinder LS2, they might have actually had something... Quote:

ok let me settle this coming from a man that loves cars from a 4 banger evo to a v10 viper.
1st of all saying v8s are big heavy all that bullshit is really stupid. Look at it this way; mazda rx7 fd3s weighs about 2850 lbs. Do a (BIG HEAVY) v8 swap... the car weighs 2930. Wow. Diffence of 80 pounds and a gain of 200 horsepower unmodefied. 2nd you guys are naming lower class v8 engines.Why dont you talk about the mustang COBRA not just a gt? Rev up to one youll see the diffrence. 3rd v8s are heavy gas guzzlers and dont get enough horsepower for thier weight... HA HA i love this one. Can anyone say 2006 Chevy Corvette z06? 505 horsepower 7.0L v8, 470 lbs of tourqe, 3,130 lbs , 17 mpg, 0-60 in 3.6 1/4 in 11.5 all for the super expensive price of 65k.oh and did i mention that is RAW ENGINE? NOT TURBO NOT SUPERCHARGED. DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED IF YOU TWIN TRUBO THAT CAR. So please all of you in this "engine size war" crawl out from whatever cave your living in and welcome to 2006. And I4 can beat a V12 if you really want to. Vice versa. Stop living in the stone age, there is no debate its all in your head. No im not giving ricers with 4 cyl honda fwds any hope beacause sorry, your cars are garbage. Yes they can get as low as 9 seconds and those cars either have engine swapped or modified the car so much its not even a true honda. Get a real car. If you must go FWD, get an RSX, Cobalt,srt4 or something PLEASE. Save yourself the embarassment. |

Although I doubt your Supra will do much for my feelings, I believe it'll do yours just fine.
