    Alternatives to a Supra....don't hit me!

    Wet Noodle Crank? Explain! R33 and R34 look virtually identical from the outside...and on the inside, barring the computer on the R34. The Lancia is UGLY? Good job i'm not italian, i'd have to send the cosa nostra around for that ;)

    The Lancia Delta Integrale and E30 M3 were LHD only, and arrived in small quantities through the dealerships that would deal in grey-imports. Over hyped? From what i've read, 600hp on stock internals is 'easy' due to the cast in bracing and whatnot... I've looked at the RX7's but the only one...

    Autoadvan looks to be getting a telephone call today! :D Yep, i've got my heart set on that R33 GTR...i may not end up getting it though, dependant on what the answer on the other end of the phone is - so keep up the suggestions!

    Alternatives to a Supra....don't hit me!

    I've never been through a drive-'thru' in my life...i'm more concerned with the fact that the steering wheel is ON THE WRONG SIDE and shifting with my right hand instead of my left is going to take some getting used to. As well as car parks - i dont fancy the fiasco of leaning across the car to...

    Yeah we got the 300ZX, but my one concern with them is that in order to do ANYTHING, you've got to strip the entire car down...and engine reliability is a little squiffy, no?

    The R32 is also over my price range...and still heavier than a Mk3 :p Automatics are WRONG. I learned in a manual and have only ever driven manuals. I cannot break the habit of wanting to keep using a clutch - i don't like it when a gearbox decides when i should shift up....*I* want to...

    Soarers are automatic, i can't drive automatic. And no VW's - as i said before, FWD = Teh failage.

    In Factory Trim, its more subtle than a Mk4 Supra :p 8 series bimmers aren't the easiest thing to come across, and if i wanted a V12, i'd get an XJS :D

    Alternatives to a Supra....don't hit me!

    The skyline i just picked out, in factory spec, is sleeper-ISH, because of its indiscriminate colour....and fairly bland exterior looks, barring the wing. Josh - BMW 8 series? Are you MAD? The 350Z is ugly as sin and uncomfortable as well...designed by an Indian man from Leicester, powered...

    Galant VR-4 wasnt the 4G engine though, it was a 2.6 litre 6A13 - not the same as the 3000GT's either. Dont fancy the Benz Cosworth, for two reasons. One the Cosworth badge will ensure insurance costs are ludicrous. Two it's still a 4-cylinder. Same really goes for the Ford Sierra/Granada...

    The R33 GTR is the RB26DETT, AWD and HICAS as well, if i remember right....i would have liked to fiddle with the funky LCD readout of the R34, but the gimmick might wear off too quick...
