3RD STRIKE is on a distinguished road
Lightbulb 10 sec. car

Hey, my name is gene. first of all i would like to say i dont know a lot about these supras except the 5mge supras. I have two of them and i also have a 280zx, I have set them up pretty much the same. The 280 will run stronger off the line better than the supra will but the supra is stronger on the back side. My assesment of the results are this,you dont need the stronger car to be the quicker car in all cases. At the end of the track these two are 1 mph. apart in speed.The different in thier time is the 280 in front w/et. of 10.44 and the supra losing w/10.12. Now i upgraded the 280 w/alum. flywheel &act stage 3 solid hub clutch. The results bring the 280,s time to 9.58,s. Personlly i like the 280 for speed. I also like it because you can do the same things to it as you can 4 about half the money. Now keep in mind both of these cars are basicly the same. they both have 2.8 liter engines independent suspension. the gears are about the same. SO IF YOUR LOOKING 4 A CHEAP BUILD I RECOMEND THE 280 BUT REMEMBER YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!!!! But dont get it twisted i would not take anything 4 my supra on the street! So i also agree on the street a supra cant be beat, this i know from my own experience. Not even a 944 porche can touch em. ps. its better to be quicker off the line,because the better hole shot usually wins no matter whose driving what. GOOD LUCK!!!!
