I'm gonna have to disagree.

The car coming outta the garage was clever, but the rest was a stock mk4 tootin' around to an overplayed Linkin Park song. The piece played when rolling outta the garage is lesser used, but still over used.

Sidenote: Unless you're using a two-step on that engine the HKS SSQV wont do much impressive compared to when it's under boost.

Not to say it's not a nice car, it's just a stock car.

Yea, I now have to agree with them. It's kind of boring to watch a stock\auto supra driving around.. I was waiting for some wheel spin or anything that showed it off.

:smokin:

Come on felluz....why bash the kid? He took the time to make this video b/c I'm sure he loves his car and is proud of it. Granted that it is an auto and is stock, you people should be united, not bashing someone that doesn't have mods. Now if it were a honda, by all means ass rape all you want, but it's a toyota.

zoni...he's a noob, he'll learn what modifications to make soon enough with a little research. don't say he has no modd skills.


jfk......good effort.

if the auto was so shitty, why was it offered..? :disappoin

some of you need to get your short throw shifters out your asses and realize automatics arent a car's weak point..

i'ts what's at the other end of that shifter that makes or breaks a car...

p.s., cool vid..:)

more power loss from an auto drivetrain.
thats why i swapped...

auto isnt bad for a supra, many of the faster drag supras are auto.

im just trying to say, its not that magnificent... he owns a supra. thats it. he drives it around and makes a video that looks like a car and driver road test. im not going to give him too much credit here for having the money for a supra. but nonetheless, its stock. boring.

purdy good vid, i enjoyed it....i can't afford a supra so i ain't gonna complain.

Well zoni....what's wrong with a stiock supra?? It still blows away just about all cars in it's class. I'm assuming that you're dissappointed in your own supra, that's why you're being so critical. why don't you make a vid of your "prized" supra and we'll judge yours. Go play tetris you ass.

i didnt say there is anything wrong with it.....

but supra enthusiasts dont find pleasure in seeing a stock supra drive around at cruising speeds, just like camry people dont like watching a camry driven around at crusing speeds...
its just too normal, too easy, and not interesting.

im not trying to downplay this guys car, im sure its a nice supra....just saying he should have something worth making an awesomely edited video of...
 
#13 ·
Oh contrair my frined(atleast by my ovservations).......supra enthusiasts love to see othr supra bretherin, regardless of whether you have mods or not. That's a fact, same for MR2 ethusiasts. Have you not been to any meets? Oh and when does everyday cruising involve donuts? hahahaha Connecticut must be insane. Well anyways nough said about this. I'm goin to play tetris and take your title of "Champion" AHAAAAAA
 
#14 ·
Oh yeah and to your "just saying he should have something worth making an awesomely edited video of..." comment...... To him, his supra is worthe it i'm sure.

And now i'm going to take your Bubble Trouble title as well. :whatwhat:

Just because supraforums says something, that doesn't mean it's true.

Autos. They're fast in drag because they're simple. Get a Trans-brake, and romp the gas. Adjust the kick down speed of the tranny and it shifts faster. So you get predictable, fast runs every time. Autos also have, as was mentioned above, more drivetrain loss which makes them less desireable to me and many.

What does this equate to on the street? :yawn: On ths strip? :clapclapclap:

However, to tote a video of a Nearly bone stock Auto Mk4 Supra tooting around a road doesn't do it for me. Owning a supra doesn't do it for me because any asshat w/cash can own a Supra or any other high-class car for that matter. Buy a supra, mod it well yourself (not some shop), then expect my applause. We all know that money can get people almost anything, so money/stock cars doesn't impress me.

MkIV's are nice cars, but it's a well known fact that most MkIV owners are pompous because "-humph- I've got a MkIV Supra." And that mindset is just retarded, and I refuse to acknowledge it.

Well, I didn't say they're right and you're worng. Of course you're titled to an opinion, but it was just a peculiar observation on my part.

Well known fact? To say that is just plain ignorance.

First) Note that I didn't make a blanket statement. I know several owners who are VERY nice, however, I know many MANY more owners who are assholes about it. No, not at all. But, go read almost any thread on SF where a Mk3 makes power. Mk4 owners come in out of the cracks to stomp on this. Good numbers or bad, there's this pressence of "we know we're better than you." Why do you think SupraMania was formed to be Mk3 specific? It's not an "everyone" but it's a well known attitude when discussing between most Mk4 and Mk3 owners.

OK OK felluz, enough about this. The thread was just of some kid who is proud of his mkiv supra and took the time to make a video b/c he loves his car. By no means did I feel he was being "cocky" nor "pompous". Have you two (Jeeves & Zoni) ever heard of the saying, "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all"?? I sense some jealousy in you two since you two don't have a mkiv and the fact that even if you spend mass amounts of money on modifications, your mkiii or whatever you have will not be as fast as a stock tt. And I have not encountered a "we know we're better than you" mkiv owner. Your location must suck. Can't we all just get along and not have a chip on our shoulder?
 
#22 ·
ive heard of the saying, but i dont practice it... sorry. i say whatever i want whenever i want.

jealousy? no. next season my car (camry) will be out on the scene producing huge numbers (550whp). THEN i will be cocky about my car too, but not now... but hell no im not jealous.

two of my good friends have mkiv's 1 is pretty much stock, the other is in the garage for major modifications. we are doing so much work on that car that it will be pushing 800hp when we are done with it. these guys ARE my good friends, but they still have an attitude. i have an attitude too though. but not about my car.
 
#24 ·
WTF? Did you read your post? That's exactly the attitude most have.

"Oh, you're just jealous you don't have a TT."

:yawn: I put less than 5k in my Mk3 and spanked stock TT's on less than 12psi when they're running 1.2+ Bar... So you might wanna rethink before you make blanket statements.

And I have not encountered a "we know we're better than you" mkiv owner.
Go read any of the Mk3 High power threads on SupraForums that have been locked because Mk4 owners came in and flamed the whole thread. I presented facts, you ignored them and called 'em jealousy .

Have you ever heard the statement, "If I don't have anything nice to say, I'll say it anyway?" Because frankly I don't care. I'm not another "Ohh a mk4!!!!" fanboy. Anyone who sees a stock car and creams themselves are idiots.

It IS a well known fact that Mk4 ownes often look down on Mk3 owners. Go research it.

nice vid JFK! I love supras, specially mkIV's, and ive only seen about 10 or so in real life, so I love to watch em any chance I get. there only 1 mkIII thats modded around here, its a TT from Japan, its dam tight

I just thought the video was pretty sweet. Like the effects and how he specifically filmed it.

But yeah, I agree. Its not that fun watching a stock car. Like the ferrarri vid i saw just cruising around the country side, Its was really really boring.

Bov sounds make all vids sweet for me. ;) :D
