If you think spending money on a supra is tough try turboing a Viper and then check back and tell us how cheap the supra really was.
Besides my old setup outran viper gts's heck the one I raced was even the ACR version.
Who the fuck said ANYTHING about me turboing a viper I would get? Not me
""yhoo, look at me, I raced a viper".........Who gives a fuck!! where is your motor now?
As for a ACR, Wow! ACR is a viper that can actually, sum what turn in a corner. Google it. But let me guess, the owner of the viper is STILL driving around

I was at whatever power my car made on 24psi. The new setup I have going on should get me more power at 10 psi than the old one did at 25psi. Vipers are LOL as far as a super car goes.
Supra's are even more LOL cars because of 90% of the owners being pecker heads
Who invited you to this conversation? :kickinthenuts::thefinger

...... but then again, the C4 Rob has will likely do very well on an autocross track too.
It should hold its own the way it is. The zo7 with FX3 suspension it has, is very well talked up. But I cant drive for shit so I would lose

Personally I think you would be far better off buying a used c6 vette than a viper, From what I've heard vipers are neat cars but they don't hook up well at all. Especially once you start making a lot of power.
Plus the vette is just a way better looking car...just my opinion though.
Not to hate on c4's really but I finally got to ride in my neighbors yesterday and if felt looser than my supra with the targa off... Also did you know they use a torsion bar front suspension? I thought that was for trucks and suv's?
The C6's are sexy , but not for me. Im not a fan of the ass on it, but maybe some day after the viper.
C4 worse wet noodle then mkIII ??? I own both and the the VETTE is WAY better. Yes there is some but that is a givin for any car with it's roof off. Now it is not in any way great, but way better then my 89 sup. Also it is well documented that c4's ride like lumber wagons. Now add the zo7 on top of it, even worse for the street.
As for the suspension, yes, it is a torsion bar, side ways leaf spring looking thing. ( I dont know the correct name for it) But it is in front and rear. As for a truck, I think the Vette's is engineered for a sports car, not a truck, since GM says the 94 with the zo7 will pull a 1G+ turn

You should take me for a ride sometime in that supercharged northstar!!!, I got a 1994 Eldorado ETC with 58,000 miles on it in my garage with an oil leak (damn northstars so hard to work on), and i can show you my new 83' Cressida.
Supercharged northstar? I dont own one. You might be thinking of a STS-V. I own a CTS-V. No supercharger here just a small LS6 under the hood.
As for Northstars, I know what you are talking about. But I found my 96 STS w/ a n-star, pretty ez to work on. Replacing the starter was a PITA, but still not the worse thing in the world like trying the change a stupid oil filter on a OEM turbo MKIII supra!!!!:biglaugh::biglaugh:
