The buffeting is a huge deal breaker from me. I drive with my windows down 90% of the time.

Sorry. I seldom follow external links from a forum.

That's just special. They have attained slightly better than 1998 Fbody acceleration, lol!

In fairness. It isn’t meant to be a drag car.

... just a BMW in drag

Please explain to me what it achieves over the 1993 version of same, that a set of 25 year newer technology tires wouldn't have.

Meh. So...about like the 1993 model?
https://www.supraforums.com/threads/...a-tune.931633/

I just really expected more, given the decade and a half that's passed. I get it, the new Supra's 420hp is likely more reliable than the 1993's, and the turbos will last longer at that PSI, blah blah blah, but how would you feel if the 2029 "370Z" made 330whp with bolt-ons and a tune? You'd be calling for Nissan's head on a platter and talking trash 6 ways from Sunday about how they screwed this up beyond your wildest nightmares.

This is the best Supra news to date for enthusiasts. Though for me. The window buffering issue is a deal breaker. But plenty of fans are gonna go nuts when this gets out!

The new supra will be doing high 11's in the 1/4 mile which just bolt-ons. This is just a ecu flash and POV it is doing 12.1 impressive.
