Supra or a Rex?

no one would have gotten in the back, and the FD is a hatchback - my mate managed to get a PC, 19" CRT, XBOX and all his bedding for a lanparty in it.

Rebuilds have to be done at around 60k, but some go as early as 40k, others as late as 80k. Best bet is to get one with a recent rebuld, but I rebuilt mine myself, and I have never done a rebuild before. I found it dead easy to be honest. There are a hell of a lot less moving parts than a boinger.

As for the way it drives, I pretty much said it all on the first page. I'm 5' 11" and I only just fit with the seat right back, so you probably would find it cramped. The seats go further back on the official UK cars though, and it's dead easy to mod the Jap seat rails so they can go back further.

The Supra's turbos are not sequential. The second one is much bigger and when it comes online you can certainly feel it. This is a great feeling but it can also unstick the rear tyres which can mean getting the rear end out.

They are both the same size in a sequential setup. :)

I'd go for a Rex at the minute obviously as I've been wanting to change my car for a while (I'm going to 2 wheels actually :D).

If you want a fast, comfy cruiser then go for a Supra, if you want a bit of a maniacs pure sports car, go for a Rex. Both can look ugly as hell from the wrong angle. :)

You should be able to get 2 sets of clubs on the back seat, forget the boot though, it's virtually non-existant. It's basically just a shelf in the back.

If you get an auto you'll probably be driving around everywhere in manual though, so don't worry too much about kickdown. I never drive mine in full auto mode. If you do go for an import, go for the GZ as it comes with most of the stuff the UK spec ones come with bar heated leather and the scoop.

Elaborate, Full Auto?

Another Question, putting a nice sound system into the supra, would that remove most of my options for getting the clubs into the car?
 
There's a manual button you can press that means it only changes when you move the stick, so it won't kick down unless you drop a cog to take you to full boost at around 4k. :)

You can put a sub in the boot and use the back seats for your clubs, so you can still do both.
 
Cheers Worhy, and others. Looks like it will definitely be a Supra for me.

Now I just have to do 2 more months of work, then she will be mine...oh yes she will be mine!

ARG!

Changed my mind to a RX-7.

Drexel, any advice on how/where to buy one :D

Drive both, then decide.

What a stupid suggestion.

The correct thing to do is to ask a load of people on an internet forum, 90% of whom will have never driven either.

Exactly why I am doing this :D

Guess I will look in the local paper for both cars, and have a wee shot in each
