    the supra is well a supra. again looks great, but you see supras making like 1000hp all the time and there 1/4 mile times suck. to me a perfect car is all about balance. and that would be a rx7, and for you american guys (I used to be) a corvette.

    but if i really really had to choose i would choose a skyline because they are more rare, and look way way cooler.
    Do we have a possible fanboy sighting?

    U just aint down wid DA hood...get some hydros and youll be fly

    Ok enough crap

    Look in a few magazines some smart carbie choices, more efficent Dual plane manifolds (caddy didnt really put a great deal of thought into their intake manifolds) and also fuel saver cams and prehaps even a propane (i think you americans call it) conversion (cheap and enviromentally friendly) and a few of them mods you mentioned should make it more liveable...

    Oh trust me, I know. I've been around a lot of engine builds and have seen what works and what doesn't. On a 390 Cad, an Edelbrock Performer (or the Weiand equivalent), along with an Edelbrock 600 or 670 4bbl carb, along with some conservatively sized headers will work it out quite economically. Don't want a Holley carb cuz they don't get the mileage and I don't wanna be out there every other day tuning it because it lost its tune again. The extra 3hp I'd get out of it isn't worth it.
    An it harm none, do as ye will

    ok first of all...nissan skyline has TWIN ball baring turbos...which r top of the line turbos n are longer lasting. second of all....supra and skyline are basicly the same car but different bodys...in the street racing world theyr considered like gods cuz of the power n the nice looks they have...and third of all...i live in canada and i have never seen a nissan skyline gtr-34...ivseen plenty of r-33's ...but they rnt as great...even in carshows...i went to import fest like a few months ago...n there wus no r-34 there....only r 33's...n u know y this is...cuz r-34 skylines r a pain in the ass to get imported...n 95% of the time u wont ...so the reason skyline r-34 is better than supra ...is bcuz of the rarety of it...i mean i see supras all the time...theres one in my neighbour hood... i mean its nice n all but i wana c a skyline...well yah thats all i wanted to say peayce
