Trolling the mkiii supra board???

I think not.

I did go on their to wind up my good friend Simon (GTS targa) I'll admit.

At least now he has seen the light and he scrapping his over weight underpowered piece of 80's shite!

I like Subaru Imprezas!!
Several friend own them, as stated on the post on Scoobynet I'd like a classic Type RA

I see Imprezas as an equal (almost )

I certainly do not see some scrappy mkiii supra from the era before Japan made decent cars as any sort of competition for a Cosworth or an Impreza!!

Whats the matter?? Couldn't afford a mkIV??

PS...Why is your "stg 3" cossie replaced by a diesel by the way???
Well I did think of replacing it with a Supra like yours but then I decided I wanted something with a bit of style so I bought a Citroen ZX TD instead :

It will happen no doubt, hopefully with the CRD Supra in attendance and the 600bhp MR2 that goes up. Should be awesome

I could say that the 4x4 stage 3 Sapphire that dynoed in at a whooping 124 HP at the wheels implies that all cosworths are underpowered sheds built in Dagenham.

Tell me this, just how is a "Ł4000" 14 year old Ford Sierra, that requires an engine out, engine reshell, rebuild, uprated turbo, uprated injectors, fuel system and uprated gasket and head bolts which total up to another few thousand that could only JUUUST edge out a mild modded STi Scooby upto 120+ MPH prove to be "superior"??

Do you know the implications of your car project, my friend?...it implies that with enough money, you can make even a dustbin very fast. Reliability is another question though.


I certainly do not see some scrappy mkiii supra from the era before Japan made decent cars as any sort of competition for a Cosworth or an Impreza!!

Whats the matter?? Couldn't afford a mkIV??
Supra's are GTs which competed against the Corvette, Porsche 928 and a few other GTs during the late 1980's They are daily driven cars that dont rattle or make huge reverbations whenever you slam the door shut. (This is where the weight plays it part), and a large engine that produces a smooth torque curve and smooth power delivery. (Unlike a tuned 4 banger) Toyota built the MR-2 for that instead.

And as for the Sierra and Escort Cosworths were built as homologation models under FIA rules, you twit. This is how you enter a car into a motorsport category. If you have a car that's already fitted with a powerful engine, race-ish specification suspension, and gear box, the race teams would have something better to start with dont they? Why do you think Honda built the Integra & Civic Type-R and fitted the damn things with race specification suspension and bushings???

Oh and the Impreza's didnt exist untill the early 90's you twit!

why do ppl get so irate

id love to have a new scooby driven one and it was mint

didn't have the head in seat gforce my saph does in a straight line but then dont have to slow to 30mph to go round a corner or roundabout

its all a bit of fun and i treat it as such

had a great little race with an evo the other day then we btoh pulled over and had a 10 min chat

mutual respect for other drivers who like to have a go

all this my team shit

i own a saph cos of the affordability and little ammount of capital required in the first place to get one

ppl need to chill the fook out

ROFLMAO at comparing mkiii supra to Porsche 928

Anyway

I'm not going to be drawn into an arguement with you Anh as it clear you are just as blinkered about your supra as many Ford RS and Impreza drivers are.

The only difference being Rs and Impreza drivers actually own cars worth of such attention

I bought my car because I have alway loved Cosworths and I wanted the quickest possible car for the 4k I had available at the time.
My car now owes me around 9-10k but still fits it's original criteria

What could I buy for 9-10k that is faster??

yo, your supras a bag of shit, I had one of them the head gasket always goes at the rear of the block, due to inefficient cooling, useless, heavy lumbering heap, and its an auto rotf

also had a new supra TT, 480bhp, much much better machine but useless on a corner, thats why ive gone for the rally heritage now, much more capable and rewarding to drive.

You are so right: with enough money, you can even make dustbins like scooby's fast.
And yes, reliability is always another question with Subaru "oops-melted-piston-#3" Impreza's.

So you've blown a headgasket on an old used Supra, but you cracked an iron block of your Escort Cosworth (which rarely happens to ANY CAR). It just shows someone of your mentality and attention to detail, I wouldn't be surprised that you can mess up a cup of coffee!

Oh, the MK3 Turbo (full trim) is lighter than the MK4TT you oaf.

Go on then, name something that in most real world situations is faster yet still remains semi practical (not counting fuel consumption )

Dya reckon your Supra is?
