The video was produced by Nissan. Sounds sketchy to me...

Well, we certainly have never seen a Supra video that was "biased". Think some T88'd Supra racing a Mustang with a cold air intake.

Hey now! That video was produced the year I graduated High School.

I think the Supra looses because it doesn't have a wing.

Nope. Pretty sure it loses because it's gay and far inferior in every way from front turn signal bulb, all the way to the license plate screws.

Remember that next time I post a video of a twin turbo Mustang wearing out a Supra with only a downpipe.

Bah. The Supra can never lose. Any of this alleged "proof" that clutters the internet is either computer generated or the Supra owner was unaware that a "race" was happening.

FD blows up every 600 miles....except for Lohans

VR4 has transmission issues every 600 miles (and its slow)

Vette that year was old technology and old body style (and relatively slow)

Complete aggreance.

I like the LOOKs of the STEALTH/300's, but I doubt I could ever own one.

The 3KGT's are ugly but I like the looks of the Stealth for some reason. They're not THAT much different but I like them better.

This guy clearly has no idea what he is talking about.
Since when did a supra have two different size turbos?
He just can't image why any one would use a i-6 motor. They are soo like 10 years ago. <napolian dynomite voice> Almost every sports car uses a v config. gosh! </napolian dynomite voice>

And they surely don't rattle as much as the 300's/Supra's/RX7's.

Is the stock supra setup NOT a sequential with one smaller and one larger turbo?

If it is, then the whole twin turbo thing is pretty misleading....

I hear people call RX7's "twin turbo" all the time as well.

Its just a misnomer as most things are anymore.

Good vid. ZX has always been one of my favs.

But I found it interesting on what the guy said about Inline 6 engines. What does he have to say about BMW using them? Bimmer has used them for years. They seem to be doing alright. They just kicked it up a notch by adding a Twin Turbo setup to the 3 series.

i might be sticking my foot in my mouth here.

but whats the point of using a turbo to spool a same size turbo?

seems kinda pointless.
