Who said he reported anything? Stop trying to give yourself so much credit.

SupaDoopa · 07-23-2019, 07:48 AM

KA24DESOneThree · 07-26-2019, 12:06 PM

It's been four years, I think, since I last drove my coupe. Right before I had a cage installed.

I just bought a chuki hatch and... I didn't realize how much I missed driving an S-chassis, as stupid as it sounds. I'm surrounded by high-end cars at work but there's something so right about driving an S13. This car is so cosmetically rough but drives surprisingly well.

Crap. I'm going to have to buy another one after this one, something I'm willing to keep. I knew the day when the bug bit again would come and I've been staving it off but that's over now.

***dorkidori_s13*** · 07-26-2019, 12:44 PM

the S13 is just a FUN car. its so evenly balanced all around for what you can do with it!

**ThatGuy** · 07-26-2019, 02:39 PM

Heh, it’s been 5 years since I pulled my S13 out of the storage unit that it sat in for over 6 years. Parted it out and only know where a small handful of parts ended up. It was a fun car, but was never what I really wanted to build. Sometimes I miss it, but I can’t see myself buying another one just to change EVERYTHING about it again.

KA24DESOneThree · 07-26-2019, 04:48 PM

I could never build any one car that was exactly what I want to build.

I have six or seven S-chassis builds in my head, from my time attack car to early '90s Japanese-street-drifter style to Nismo 270R clone.

spooled240 · 07-26-2019, 06:58 PM

I've been driving my s14 again this past week and it's been fun. I forgot how light these cars feel. I don't consider my IS very heavy at 3300lbs, but it's still 500lbs heavier than the 240 lol. 4000lb cars on the road just seems ridiculous even if it does have 500+ hp.

Full tank, interior and me, 4,480lbs on the scale. Car is a tank but it moves out.

I've had cars that weighted as little as 2,400lb, and the G55 was 6,700lb.

What's up with that 1 sec reaction time? lol

The new Chargers are pretty cool but I would have to drive one and see how it corners.

jedi03 · 07-29-2019, 09:52 AM

turbo lag lol...that's a good run imo...i really enjoy my sti, could use more power/gas mileage lol but overall its for me...little heavier and it feels that way, sometimes do miss my s13 and fc for that agility! and also once in a while my AW11

spooled240 · 07-29-2019, 09:01 PM

More like neuro-lag lol

I need more power in my s14. I was having problems with the ebc so I'm just running the wg spring on 8 psi..tapering down to 6 psi at redline. On the plus side I have an open dump so everyone can at least hear my car chirpin' to high 14's lmao

SupaDoopa · 07-30-2019, 06:17 AM

All that drivetrain abuse to get walked by Civics.

I suck and I kept messing with the transbrake.

If you want handling, make sure it has a dynamic package or is a T/A. Preferably a widebody with the 305 Square setup.

1320 has softer suspension for the strip and it's noticeable.

They corner alright, depending on spec as mentioned. I've only driven a hellcat Charger, but the steering response wasn't as horrid as I anticipated. It was fun, I got to do some pulls. Launch control was ehh. For a $600/mo lease it's probably one of the most fun cars you can get.

spooled240 · 07-30-2019, 04:40 PM

I test drove an n55 335i and was surprisingly unimpressed. The car felt large, heavy and underpowered with vague feedback. Since then I've just assumed anything over 3500lbs needs at least 400hp to feel fast.

Zupra is a dog.

$60k and Micky Thompsons to run a 12.5... And get dragged by $40k Mustangs and Challengers.

***dorkidori_s13*** · 07-30-2019, 09:14 PM

theyre gonna wreck that torque converter... stupid automatic transmissions

Not everything is about the drag strip.

spooled240 · 07-31-2019, 12:18 AM

To be fair the gt350 is over 60k and runs 12's. That's a hair faster than a stock mustang gt lol

This is the new Supra, not an MR2 or Miata.

Nobody bought a MKIII or MKIV because of thier autocross dominance, light weight or road feel.

It was an attractive Coupe with spacious interior that was easy to tune and make big power. The MKIV shined because it also had a transmission, rear end and suspension geometry that supported the big power.

Maybe Toyota should have just turbocharged the FRZBGT86 and charged 30-35k for it.

The Zupra is going to be priced alongside a 500hp Mid Engine DCT Corvette, a flat plane crank, +8000rpm, manual only, track beast Mustang, etc.

If anything, the Hellcat and Z06 are the modern "Supras".

Don't bother with him. Just putting his barge into "D" takes every bit of his brain functionality.

tuzzio · 07-31-2019, 08:08 AM

It takes like 1,200 hp for a MK4 supra to run an 11. Don't be surprised.

I'm more disappointed at the fact that the Supra doesn't come in manual. I'm sure the whole drivetrain can handle some good power.
