FD vs Supra's
I raced two different Supra's.
One 3rd gen w/ "lots of stuff done to it" supposedly 362 WHP uncorrected dyno #.
One 4th gen w/ "1000rwhp"
On the 3rd gen (black) I was surprised that he even wanted to race at first because I really thought he was stock. He revved a few times on the highway (55 roll) so I honked 3 times and we shot off. I pulled about a car length over immediately then his turbo spool'd up and he sat right beside me all the way til the end of 4th (~150?). I slowed down and bumped the boost up to 12 psi and ran him again. I immediately pulled off and continued to pull pretty hard. I got about 4 or 5 car lengths before I shut down. We were both pretty excited but he couldn't believe I beat him.
The 4th gen was pretty nuts. I was just cruising and he took off, pulled about 3 car lengths before I even reacted. I later found out he's ~1000whp, but he wouldn't race me from a clean start. Has anyone seen the white 4th gen around here?

hmm...as for the black mk3, i'll have to check with my friend and see if he's been out playing with RX-7s...but then again, he would show more respect to an FD because he does know what they are capable of.
My friends in fuquay varina with a 1jz mk3 black supra...

ya know, anything can be faster or handle better than the next car with the right amount of money and know how, so when people say, I would like to see "X" car beat me or I can beat so and so, its wasting your breath. Having owned both, I still prefer my supra over my fd as a overall thing, but as far as handling/looks, the fd stands out. With the supra it's nice to be able to run 660+whp and 565 lb ft torque on a relatively smaller turbo on 93 pump gas with a decent broad powerband, better build quality in general. I mean the stock powertrain can take 800-900 whp. However regardless, both cars are a blast to drive and driving a 400 whp FD vs a 600+whp FD is a totally different ball game.

I love supras and i defend them but reality is reality.
If you beat a 450rwhp supra on your stock twins, congrats.
I hung with my friends 550rwhp supra (he had 4 people total in car) while i had one 135lbs passenger from about 30-80mph.
