Officially gassed. You need to contact full throttle performance and speak to the owner PS Al. He's by far the most powerful supra in the country and the fastest.. see if he would play.
Even on airflelds most of those tyres are shite too. But odd to turn up with cars that just don't seem to work. Whether dodgy gear shifts, hitting trips all the time. If the car doesn't work, surely fix it before racing ?
Not a single one of them know how to drive. They all probably work 6 days a week trying to afford the car and drive it only on the weekends for a few hours cruising at grandma speed😂 no time to actually learn the car or they just suck
And there is always a problem with one of the cars, I mean why show up if the car isn't in atleast 80-90% condition. The 3 gear on the the 800Hp supra is not so much of a problem. But one shows up with a car that cannot put the power down, the other one cannot make one clean run the whole time.
Brooo 😂😂😂just comented the same thing, its definitely guys who had everything built for them, have the money and kept on saying to the tuner "Give it more boost if it can take it" not knowing anything about cars that [ack power for prepped tracks.
I think that's a bit of an unfair comment. They are doing it on a private road, not the streets. That Getrag 6 speed is hard to snap gears, I own a R34 GTR and it runs the same transmission and it can be a c*** to drive hard at times, especially on a highly rated twin plate clutch, the thing drags and can make the gear shifts super notchy, so easy to miss shift into 5th. A few TH-camrs who drive cars often have also money shifted with Getrags. As for the other bloke, he just had a unfortunate laps in judgement due to his poor launch, caused him to mash the throttle as a reaction and spun. He's human, adrenalin etc... It happens. No one here is a professional driver..
The 780bhp sound check was the better sounding one imho. Great race and an almost good save! Glad to see minimal damage to the car. As the saying goes, 'Power is nothing without control'. Live to fight another day!

It just shows, it doesn’t matter how much power you have, if you can’t put that power down or the car performing as it should every time, there’s not much point to be running such crazy power.

With reviews like that where the Supra wins the comparo every single time and is preferred we get these vapid vomitbots that putrify anyone's ears that will listen how the car is sooooo heavyyyyyy and handles like stink on a stick and _ is superior in every way. The epiphany came to me a couple of years ago as to why this switch happened. Millennials don't read publications. They watch videos and play video games. And they were mostly born after all these reviews took place. To them the only version of the car they know is in Gran Turismo, the movie which may not be named, and what idiots on the internet say about the car. In the US the cars that predominantly take up the airwaves are drag cars that have their balance crushed and modded to a drag bias for which naturally ruins the car. And then the FB groups took over for them vs SF for the same reasons their visual appetite is so narrow for attention only wild builds with record setting numbers even gets attention in that format. If a modest (balanced) car gets covered in that format, all the comments are from 12 yr olds who can't drive, "bleh, overrated, heavy, pos, slower than___" because their only interaction with the car so far has been the movie franchise that will remain unamed and record drag cars for FB headline attention grabbing posts, and a video game. Playing on Gran Turismo, I investigated why is the Supra considered heavy and slow. GT3, GT4, GT5, Prologe, GT6, and probably GT7 the Supra weight distribution in the game was intentionally changed for the worse. I know this due to Kazunori Yamauchi (game designer) did a press interview about the game Waaay back around the release of the GT2 after it had massive commercial success. It even had a section in sema where sema show winners were put in the game. Kaz said, "We biased tuned the older cars down so they wouldn't destroy the newer cars in the game that the manufacturers were debuting. If the old cars are better then the kids playing the game will buy the older cars instead of the new cars the manufacturers were coming out with" When I heard this, I didn't realize at the time what I was seeing was the bias he was talking about. We OG's know the real balance from the factory is 53/47 f/r weight distribution. In all the aforementioned game versions, the Supra has a 60/40 weight balance. The Supra is under-tired from the factory, and that is exacerbated in the game with that ugly weight balance. You can't change tire width in GT. You can lighten the chassis which makes the balance worse, and fix it with ballast. But then I found another problem. The tire friction cof. If I buy a R comp in the game on the Supra, the car will not grip the same as a R comp with another brand of car. I tested this with braking distance. We all know the Supra Turbo had the braking record for 12 years, but someone didn't like that fact in Polyphony Digital. So they changed the braking balance. The car flat will not brake equal to any car in the game on the same tire. I have even turned the brake bias all the way up in the rear to 10 and the rears wont break traction. If I go 100mph and do a panic stop in a GTR it will stop abnormally fast. In the Supra it keeps going, and going and will eventually stop. The only version of the car in the game was the JDM RZ which had OPTIONAL track brakes that all US spec Supra Turbos get so that means the car will have fade and trouble stopping on the N/A brakes. The calipers show that they are turbo but the car stops like a N/A. If you get any of Kaz's favorite cars that he says in the interview is the SL mercedes and GTR's you can expect over the top handling and traction that is so unrealistic you wonder if he swapped the Mercedes chassis with the supra. The SL is a POS on the track and handles and brakes like garbage. Its all over the place and the body control is non existent. I have driven a SL55 AMG IRL. It is a decent car but is miles from a Supra dynamics wise. In the game though it is miles better than the Supra. Makes hundreds more horse power (ROFL) has brakes, handling, body control, and tractable power even at over 1000HP+ lol. GTR - forget eveything about this car in the game is fake.The real life GTR has a 60/40 weight balance. In the game? You guessed right, it is 55/45. So the GTR was modified to be better numbers and traction than the real car, and the Supra was modified to be worse. It doesn't end there. In GT6 you put a small turbo on a supra it makes about 5xxhp. Medium makes about 944hp. Large turbo guesses anyone? 1000+? nope. 937hp. You read that right. The medium turbo makes more power than the large turbo lol. We are lucky to even get that much. The power in the Supra went from 1088hp in GT2 to 9xxhp in GT3, GT4 made 8xxhp and GT5 made 744hp. The crazy thing is the GT5 SC300 makes 789hp with the GE engine. So the GTE is less powerful than the GE and less powerful with a large turbo. Heck ALL the Jap sports cars mentioned above have had a premimum version in all the GT series except for the Supra to this day. The new GT7 announced a premimum Supra is going to be in the game, but I bet $$ they didn't fix what you can't see; which is the chassis dynamics. Talk about a sore loser Kaz. It is so painfully obvious to me now why the millenials are saying what they are saying. Unfortunately his bias was not limited to the Supra. The SC chassis is even worse. The car is even more under-tired than the Supra from the factory and that weight balance was changed from 57/43 to 65/35. Ballast won't fix it. The car is nearly undriveable in the game. FWD cars like the ITR or CTR are not even that bad and have a better balance than that. The SC is one of the worst handling cars in the game. MR2 Turbo, same story, chaser, aristo, basically all the Toyota cars are stink on a stick dynamically in the game except for the ISF. The ISF can and will run circles around any Toyota product in the game including the Supra and the LFA. If there is no manufacturer stroking here you can call me Mickey Mouse🤡🐭. The actual game is OK other than that, but honestly that is enough to ruin the experience for me completely. I don't buy the game to beat it. I buy it to drive my fav cars on tracks against other cars to relax, veg out, get seat time and keep my skills sharp. Unfortunately that will be relegated to a PC experience that I am afraid isn't any better. It seems all virtual versions of the Supra are modeled after the one in GT. :( Looks like this drivel will continue for some time until cars like BIGNUMTT and others like him get more mainstream attention and change the narrative back with actual old and new reviews. And call out Kazunori Yamauchi publicly for this discrepancy. Because bottom line, the way he crapped all over Eiji Toyoda's legacy is criminal. Eiji Toyoda was the passionate man that brought Toyota to the behemoth it is today with sheer passion and craftsmanship. Eiji was responsible for Japan competing with the world. After he passed away his replacement Katsuaki Watanabe in 2005 was then replaced after the acceleration scandal with the prius by the original founder's grandson Akio. Akio has not produced a single sporting product since he took the reins in 2009. Now we are going to have Kazunori highlight and prance this crack baby bastard child A90, GR86 and GR Yaris in GT7 further erasing the pride of Japan of Eiji's legacy over Akio's half baked lame slough attempt at a sporty vehicles that none of which are even made by Toyota. Encourage incompetent leaders mistakes and destroy competent passionate leaders triumphs, where have I heard this stink story before? Time to get earplugs..."
It all started at that launch which broke his concentration and affected his decision to play catch-up causing him to spin.. Series of unfortunate events. Glad he's okay! He did well to save that thing!
Wait... did you watch the same video as me?? At what point did he actually save anything?? The man just kept his foot in it... till it was pointing 90 degrees to the left of the runway before he lifted... then tried to somewhat countersteer but at that point he was just a passenger... it four wheel drifted through the rough before it dug in and nearly flipped over.... The man was extremely lucky... but at no point did he save anything. The first time he felt it move right he overcorrected massively sending it into a slide with way too much wheelspeed. Do that on a dragstrip... and you can say bye bye to your supra....
@@kenvanpassen9247 You're supposed to keep your foot in it, he lost it when he took his foot off - made a mistake. But he did counter into it in an effort to slow it down, and not flip the car. It is lucky for sure, but yeah thats what i was referring too when i said he did well to save that thing.
@@BNR_248 Nah man. He lost it overcorrecting with about 130mph wheelspeed. Then he let off.... And I know staying in it is the general advise... But when talking about a +1000rwhp automatic car on roadtires... "Staying in it" while you are wheelspinning in second or third, and than still staying in it when the car shifts increasing the wheelspin massively is 100% of the time going to result in a spin out... In that situation grip at the rear is the same as driving on Ice with the rear wheels only. Any minor change in direction is going to keep going in that direction.... No steering input can counter that. Had he lifted before the shift, he would've been able to catch it. The moment it shifted it was all over...
I have a non turbo manual. Can't wait to throw a turbo at it. I don't even want anywhere near this power from mine. just 400-500bhp and all the turbo sounds and I'll be happy for life lol
@@LeoorLeonard tell that to Tesla. They have instant torque but put the power down every single time. I guess its the AWD and how heavy the car is that gives it traction.
Single turbo swaps are just good for the Dyno to show big HP numbers, driveability especially for a supra is at around 500hp with a twin turbo setup. There are tuning companies who will take your money without giving true sound advice.
@@feriveysi7399 1/4 in what high 12s or low 13s? Similar to a classic Impreza with less than 400hp. The issue here is these cars are un drivable at high hp, the chassis are not capable of allowing the wheels to provide any meaningful traction in their rwd setups
False. There are a shit ton of big power Supras that can lay the power down properly. A great setup has all the supporting mods to handle those power levels.
@@masrali4696disagree bro depends where you build your supra if you go to Puerto Rico you will surprise how they build 5,6 seconds supras 1100 1200bhp with not Traction control and sequential it's a waste Im running garrett G35 900 opens boost at 2000 rpm
The ZF8 conversion is nuts! The way to go for a reasonable trannu upgrade if you don't want to go full dogbox or sequential. Probably a better daily too!
Damn!!! That looked serious! Glad Keenan was alright. It looks like these guys just turned up to blow their cars up. Also, it is all very well claiming your car can produce 1200 hrsprs but if you can't use it, what is the point?
Overall - An advertisement for AWD cars. Supras are Japanese Mustangs.😂. As soon as I saw a guy with an over 1000hp in a manual on 20’s I knew it would run a similar quarter to stock Hyaundai I30N…
It actually got off the line pretty well a couple of times.... that man for sure is a driver... his car just let him down every time.... everytime he got into third, the thing boost cut or fuel cut.... not really representative of what that setup could do. And it will be for sure faster that a stock I30N .... But I know what you mean.... Over a 1000hp manual 6 speed on road tires on that surface will be a spinfest every time :D
That runway probably has less grip than your average dual carriageway, unless these cars are set up properly they're just gonna spin to the 1/8th mile with that power. They don't even do a burnout to warm the tyres, probably all running way too high of a tyre pressure too. These are 1000hp street cruisers trying to be drag cars and failing hard.

You obviously don’t know what you’re talking about! Six speed manual Supras can run eight and nine seconds why don’t you stop yapping
If you want a Supra to put down power and make clean passes reliably you need a DCT transmission, drag radials and a conservative boost by gear set up.
I want to see these guys fix there issues and race again! I know the potential of these cars personally and this was hurting my soul to see their struggles!
is why ill race anyone with my subaru on the street. its only mild 430whp but ive only lost once to a high hp car and it was on radials. smoked countless "million hp club" builds with it
@@drewallen7965 yeah that'd be quick in most street situations, most peoples subi's I know all blow though, 1 was good, other not so good lol, I like rwd for the drive style but under 100kmh like most street situations a decent evo or subi is hard to beat
Easily the most epic nightmare in automobile history. I'm melted by all the sound. Wishes all cars, drivers and the crew well. I'm already repeating this video 3 times before commenting.
Not gonna lie this was not fun to watch, we didn't see a proper race. Regarding the accident, that could've gone much worse REAL quick, man was lucky there. Most importantly he is fine. Would definitely love to see these cars go head 2 head again when all of their issues are dealt with.
I appreciate that finding a runway you can use with a perfect surface is bloody hard.. The cars here seem to bounce around, chucking up gravel, making traction a nightmare.. These guys have great passion for their cars, & they are rapid 👏🏼🔥
Supra boys crack me up haha . Class video man. Ive always said it to boys that wanted to go zf8 swap like mine, It completley removes the knowlege of what your wheel speed is. Its soo hard to control when it lights them up. Thats why i pushed to use thew AWD one and even then spinning all 4 gets verrrrry scary on zf8
The t56 has way too long ratios. You need to run a 4.1 diff for them to be usable, Instead of the 3.2 strong diff in the turbo manual supra. Tr6060 is better
@@755hp there's not good options for something strong though. If you're not running a b03b, you need a Grannas Racing 9" setup or a full billet version of the 8" a03b/a02b which is bloody expensive. I'd rather just stay with the b03b than keep blowing diffs. How much power are you running through yours?
Some of you who complain that they're doing 12s quarter, this is not a PlayStation game, look at the road surface 😂😂 it's not exactly glued santa pod strip is it?? EKS tuning Supra is the clear winner, Check out their other projects 🔥🔥🔥
A few tips for new racers. Spinning ain’t winning Clean shifting is fast shifting An 1/8th mile race is getting to bang the girl of your dreams but you don’t get to nut. If you rebuild a classic car; you get the brakes working before the engine.
Kinda disagree on the last part.. mybe if your taking it to the track then yeah .. but one or two pulls on a stock brake system to show off to some mates isn't gonna make or break nun
@@JohnLomein Oh you really should, even my Mrs enjoys watching VGG, we've even adopted some of his lingo without realising it, I now refer to an alternator as a chargerwhirler and my battery in now a 'lightning cube'. Sketchy is his baseline
The Supra was my childhood dream car, i used to froth over them so hard… then i became an adult and realised they are absolutely SHIT. Except the engine. Plus 90% of the owners cant drive for their fkn life & put some stupid license plate that has to involve “2jz”
Even the engine isn't all that impressive. In its day it was just easy to make 450hp+ with and the community around it went nuts with big singles for highway runs.
@@rpw2003 that’s the most ignorant statement ive ever heard… tell me one car a supra can out-gun in any scenario?… Drag racing - Gtr / evo / modern germans / v8’s can do better at any level Circuit - almost anything. it’s a cool car, but its rubbish. Shown easily in this video. The fact that people are converting them to zf8 just to have some form of advantage proves it.
@@Jay_emm Obviously got some hate towards it for some reason. Must be p1ssed that you will never be able to own one now. Show me an Evo that's doing quarter mile in 5 seconds? You will always get people that change engines for whatever reason, nothing new there.
@@rpw2003 ooh nice one kid, the old “ i cant afford it” argument 😂 btw, your “supra” thats running 5’s… it aint a supra anymore 🤷🏽♂️ just the body remains. Got anything substantial to back your claims kid ?
Honestly that would only be fun a couple times a month on a safe track in case you lose control. I would think a 650-750hp supra would be amazing at all times
Some people will never understand the real thrill of this car, it is a pure Spartan car that have serious issues with traction once you adding up power.. The exact thing at 10:42 happen to me on a straight road but with much less power and thank god, it was a save of the century!
Think what we can see from the street / no prep surface and different cars and powers is that rwd 750>850bhp is the sweet spot, awd 800>1100bhp and for us fwd lads it’s 450>600bhp is our sweet spot. Absolutely mental battle this one was Jamie! Got some mad looking screen shots of the guy with steering wheel on full opposite lock while the car is completely side ways and you can see the rear of the other cars from his drivers side window 😂.
The Toyota's Supra aren't the faster cars in the world but when modified the surely are in the Top 10 that put a smile in your face like no others, it's really pure to drive it not a lot of controls that cut your driving pleasure.
Wow jamie the dramas of drag racing. Im just glad the ZF driver came out of that unscathed and his car hasnt taken much damage. Great 3 way show down on the roll races though. Nice match up again and want to see them all back once they sorted all the faults. ❤❤

Kaz said, "We biased tuned the older cars down so they wouldn't destroy the newer cars in the game that the manufacturers were debuting. If the old cars are better then the kids playing the game will buy the older cars instead of the new cars the manufacturers were coming out with" When I heard this, I didn't realize at the time what I was seeing was the bias he was talking about.
We OG's know the real balance from the factory is 53/47 f/r weight distribution. In all the aforementioned game versions, the Supra has a 60/40 weight balance. The Supra is under-tired from the factory, and that is exacerbated in the game with that ugly weight balance. You can't change tire width in GT. You can lighten the chassis which makes the balance worse, and fix it with ballast. But then I found another problem. The tire friction cof. If I buy a R comp in the game on the Supra, the car will not grip the same as a R comp with another brand of car. I tested this with braking distance. We all know the Supra Turbo had the braking record for 12 years, but someone didn't like that fact in Polyphony Digital. So they changed the braking balance. The car flat will not brake equal to any car in the game on the same tire. I have even turned the brake bias all the way up in the rear to 10 and the rears wont break traction. If I go 100mph and do a panic stop in a GTR it will stop abnormally fast. In the Supra it keeps going, and going and will eventually stop. The only version of the car in the game was the JDM RZ which had OPTIONAL track brakes that all US spec Supra Turbos get so that means the car will have fade and trouble stopping on the N/A brakes. The calipers show that they are turbo but the car stops like a N/A.
If you get any of Kaz's favorite cars that he says in the interview is the SL mercedes and GTR's you can expect over the top handling and traction that is so unrealistic you wonder if he swapped the Mercedes chassis with the supra. The SL is a POS on the track and handles and brakes like garbage. Its all over the place and the body control is non existent. I have driven a SL55 AMG IRL. It is a decent car but is miles from a Supra dynamics wise. In the game though it is miles better than the Supra. Makes hundreds more horse power (ROFL) has brakes, handling, body control, and tractable power even at over 1000HP+ lol.
GTR - forget eveything about this car in the game is fake.The real life GTR has a 60/40 weight balance. In the game? You guessed right, it is 55/45. So the GTR was modified to be better numbers and traction than the real car, and the Supra was modified to be worse. It doesn't end there. In GT6 you put a small turbo on a supra it makes about 5xxhp. Medium makes about 944hp. Large turbo guesses anyone? 1000+? nope. 937hp. You read that right. The medium turbo makes more power than the large turbo lol. We are lucky to even get that much. The power in the Supra went from 1088hp in GT2 to 9xxhp in GT3, GT4 made 8xxhp and GT5 made 744hp. The crazy thing is the GT5 SC300 makes 789hp with the GE engine. So the GTE is less powerful than the GE and less powerful with a large turbo. Heck ALL the Jap sports cars mentioned above have had a premimum version in all the GT series except for the Supra to this day. The new GT7 announced a premimum Supra is going to be in the game, but I bet $$ they didn't fix what you can't see; which is the chassis dynamics. Talk about a sore loser Kaz. It is so painfully obvious to me now why the millenials are saying what they are saying.
Unfortunately his bias was not limited to the Supra. The SC chassis is even worse. The car is even more under-tired than the Supra from the factory and that weight balance was changed from 57/43 to 65/35. Ballast won't fix it. The car is nearly undriveable in the game. FWD cars like the ITR or CTR are not even that bad and have a better balance than that. The SC is one of the worst handling cars in the game. MR2 Turbo, same story, chaser, aristo, basically all the Toyota cars are stink on a stick dynamically in the game except for the ISF. The ISF can and will run circles around any Toyota product in the game including the Supra and the LFA. If there is no manufacturer stroking here you can call me Mickey Mouse🤡🐭.
The actual game is OK other than that, but honestly that is enough to ruin the experience for me completely. I don't buy the game to beat it. I buy it to drive my fav cars on tracks against other cars to relax, veg out, get seat time and keep my skills sharp. Unfortunately that will be relegated to a PC experience that I am afraid isn't any better. It seems all virtual versions of the Supra are modeled after the one in GT. :(
Looks like this drivel will continue for some time until cars like BIGNUMTT and others like him get more mainstream attention and change the narrative back with actual old and new reviews. And call out Kazunori Yamauchi publicly for this discrepancy. Because bottom line, the way he crapped all over Eiji Toyoda's legacy is criminal. Eiji Toyoda was the passionate man that brought Toyota to the behemoth it is today with sheer passion and craftsmanship. Eiji was responsible for Japan competing with the world. After he passed away his replacement Katsuaki Watanabe in 2005 was then replaced after the acceleration scandal with the prius by the original founder's grandson Akio. Akio has not produced a single sporting product since he took the reins in 2009. Now we are going to have Kazunori highlight and prance this crack baby bastard child A90, GR86 and GR Yaris in GT7 further erasing the pride of Japan of Eiji's legacy over Akio's half baked lame slough attempt at a sporty vehicles that none of which are even made by Toyota.
Encourage incompetent leaders mistakes and destroy competent passionate leaders triumphs, where have I heard this stink story before? Time to get earplugs..."
This wasn't a race, this was a competition to see which was the most reliable car amongst 3 unreliable builds.
7:21 that clutch kick tho
This is definitely something you should not do when drag racing a over powered car, after all you are not trying to drift you are trying to gain speed
That’s when you know someone can’t drive, clutch kicking a 1200 horse power roll racing?😂 that’s what anti-lag is invented for
😂
It all started at that launch which broke his concentration and affected his decision to play catch-up causing him to spin.. Series of unfortunate events. Glad he's okay! He did well to save that thing!
Not a series of unfortunate events, it's a bad decision and lack of skill. I'm glad the car is ok
@@MyRealName he just kept his foot in, no fcks given 🤣
scary to think he is driving this thing on public roads
Wait... did you watch the same video as me?? At what point did he actually save anything?? The man just kept his foot in it... till it was pointing 90 degrees to the left of the runway before he lifted... then tried to somewhat countersteer but at that point he was just a passenger... it four wheel drifted through the rough before it dug in and nearly flipped over.... The man was extremely lucky... but at no point did he save anything. The first time he felt it move right he overcorrected massively sending it into a slide with way too much wheelspeed. Do that on a dragstrip... and you can say bye bye to your supra....
@@kenvanpassen9247 You're supposed to keep your foot in it, he lost it when he took his foot off - made a mistake. But he did counter into it in an effort to slow it down, and not flip the car. It is lucky for sure, but yeah thats what i was referring too when i said he did well to save that thing.
@@BNR_248 Nah man. He lost it overcorrecting with about 130mph wheelspeed. Then he let off.... And I know staying in it is the general advise... But when talking about a +1000rwhp automatic car on roadtires... "Staying in it" while you are wheelspinning in second or third, and than still staying in it when the car shifts increasing the wheelspin massively is 100% of the time going to result in a spin out... In that situation grip at the rear is the same as driving on Ice with the rear wheels only. Any minor change in direction is going to keep going in that direction.... No steering input can counter that. Had he lifted before the shift, he would've been able to catch it. The moment it shifted it was all over...
I have a non turbo manual. Can't wait to throw a turbo at it. I don't even want anywhere near this power from mine. just 400-500bhp and all the turbo sounds and I'll be happy for life lol
@@JordieMotive97 that power is the absolute sweet spot for the street. See my post.
From what I hear turboing a non turbo supra will need some custom fabwork to be done... still, can be done, won't be cheap though. ;)
Exactly 400 - 500hp is perfect for the streets. No one needs 600 - 1000hp, you can’t even take advantage of it on the road. Plain dangerous!
@@kenvanpassen9247 not really there's a bolt on kit that gives 350 bhp, no mods.
@@LeoorLeonard tell that to Tesla. They have instant torque but put the power down every single time. I guess its the AWD and how heavy the car is that gives it traction.
Never seen someone struggle to change gears as much as the guy in the grey north face hoodie
Single turbo swaps are just good for the Dyno to show big HP numbers, driveability especially for a supra is at around 500hp with a twin turbo setup. There are tuning companies who will take your money without giving true sound advice.
Mate I'm driving a 2jz jzx100 850hp at the wheels manual swap tr6060 sequential shifter
Bring a car with same hp to beat me 🙃
@@feriveysi7399 1/4 in what high 12s or low 13s? Similar to a classic Impreza with less than 400hp. The issue here is these cars are un drivable at high hp, the chassis are not capable of allowing the wheels to provide any meaningful traction in their rwd setups
False. There are a shit ton of big power Supras that can lay the power down properly. A great setup has all the supporting mods to handle those power levels.
@@masrali4696disagree bro depends where you build your supra if you go to Puerto Rico you will surprise how they build 5,6 seconds supras
1100 1200bhp with not Traction control and sequential it's a waste
Im running garrett G35 900 opens boost at 2000 rpm

Wow, 3 different setups and all are lovely… 🇹🇷 Ah be Kenan… Efsane aracın var kardeşim.
the zf8 guy is just chilling in there 😂
The ZF8 conversion is nuts! The way to go for a reasonable trannu upgrade if you don't want to go full dogbox or sequential. Probably a better daily too!
Yeah there a great upgrade and strong too.
still dogbox or sequential or even a DCT would be better for drag racing

@@darrylappleby3983 Yeah was thinking the same.... he was lucky though... extremely so... but no saving happened here :D

Definitely lucky, though far from a save
That wasn't a save bud lol
Big tire 780hp! Let's go
Damn!!! That looked serious! Glad Keenan was alright. It looks like these guys just turned up to blow their cars up. Also, it is all very well claiming your car can produce 1200 hrsprs but if you can't use it, what is the point?
That spin off in the field reminded me of the Clarkson M135i spin on Top Gear and when it nearly tipped I was like shiiiiiiiit! 😮💨
The 780bhp sounds the best, by far.
Overall - An advertisement for AWD cars. Supras are Japanese Mustangs.😂. As soon as I saw a guy with an over 1000hp in a manual on 20’s I knew it would run a similar quarter to stock Hyaundai I30N…
No fun.
It actually got off the line pretty well a couple of times.... that man for sure is a driver... his car just let him down every time.... everytime he got into third, the thing boost cut or fuel cut.... not really representative of what that setup could do. And it will be for sure faster that a stock I30N .... But I know what you mean.... Over a 1000hp manual 6 speed on road tires on that surface will be a spinfest every time :D
That runway probably has less grip than your average dual carriageway, unless these cars are set up properly they're just gonna spin to the 1/8th mile with that power. They don't even do a burnout to warm the tyres, probably all running way too high of a tyre pressure too. These are 1000hp street cruisers trying to be drag cars and failing hard.
You obviously don’t know what you’re talking about! Six speed manual Supras can run eight and nine seconds why don’t you stop yapping
Not on street tires they dont.
I'd have the one with the grippy tyres. Seems the most reliable and looks cleaner than the other 2
Couldn’t agree more. I’d rather be banging gears in a lower powered manual than have an auto high hp car every day
If you want a Supra to put down power and make clean passes reliably you need a DCT transmission, drag radials and a conservative boost by gear set up.
to be fair i reckon keep the supra as it's supposed to be and get another car if you want dct etc
How lucky was that guy !!!
I want to see these guys fix there issues and race again! I know the potential of these cars personally and this was hurting my soul to see their struggles!
Bragging rights down at the pub with your dyno print out only gets you so far when you're doing a 14 second 1/4 mile burnout 🤷🏾♂️
is why ill race anyone with my subaru on the street. its only mild 430whp but ive only lost once to a high hp car and it was on radials.
smoked countless "million hp club" builds with it
@@drewallen7965 yeah that'd be quick in most street situations, most peoples subi's I know all blow though, 1 was good, other not so good lol, I like rwd for the drive style but under 100kmh like most street situations a decent evo or subi is hard to beat
unc is an inspiration fr
Zf gearbox is just fire
And it's gone.......😢
Easily the most epic nightmare in automobile history. I'm melted by all the sound. Wishes all cars, drivers and the crew well. I'm already repeating this video 3 times before commenting.
Not gonna lie this was not fun to watch, we didn't see a proper race. Regarding the accident, that could've gone much worse REAL quick, man was lucky there. Most importantly he is fine. Would definitely love to see these cars go head 2 head again when all of their issues are dealt with.
absolute beautiful timeless machine, imagine having 3 professional drivers for each of these beauty it would be an epic race
Good morning Sunday gassed gang you know whsts up 👊
3 supras lined up side by side is a superb sight to behold. 🤩😍
What do an 800, 1000, and 1200 hp supra all have in common? They all run 12's in the 1/4 mile
Still as true today as it was in 2000.
No if you can drive :) in 2006 in Poland supra made 10.9 on street, non dragstrip, with only 1250hp :D but really supra is best in rolls
😂😂😂😂
Dude its 1994 car what do you expect. No automatic transmission no launch control. No electronics. Just chill out.

love your vids Jamie ❤
Supra boys crack me up haha . Class video man. Ive always said it to boys that wanted to go zf8 swap like mine, It completley removes the knowlege of what your wheel speed is. Its soo hard to control when it lights them up. Thats why i pushed to use thew AWD one and even then spinning all 4 gets verrrrry scary on zf8
Me shouting at the screen: RASSSSSSSSS 🤐10:36
The only one that had no problems with the car to begin with broke the worst like what a turn of events, craziest races I’ve seen on the channel😂🔥🔥🔥
Should rig up a zf 8 speed xdrive that'd be a game changer for a supra!! Front diff would be a big job though
I’m not sure it would fit without serious firewall/chassis modifications, better of just putting a 2j in something that already has all wheel drive.
a couple of gtr's in oz have gone that way
3 supra in one drag race is insane 🔥 we need it more 🎉
780Hp Supra needs a Grannas T56 swap ASAP.
The t56 has way too long ratios. You need to run a 4.1 diff for them to be usable, Instead of the 3.2 strong diff in the turbo manual supra. Tr6060 is better
@@Skirk84 I know that; I have a Mk3 Supra and would only get a 3.9 or 4.1 diff coupled with a T56.
@@755hp there's not good options for something strong though. If you're not running a b03b, you need a Grannas Racing 9" setup or a full billet version of the 8" a03b/a02b which is bloody expensive.

A few tips for new racers.
Spinning ain’t winning
Clean shifting is fast shifting
An 1/8th mile race is getting to bang the girl of your dreams but you don’t get to nut.
If you rebuild a classic car; you get the brakes working before the engine.
Kinda disagree on the last part.. mybe if your taking it to the track then yeah .. but one or two pulls on a stock brake system to show off to some mates isn't gonna make or break nun

Honestamente el que más me gusta de los 3 es el de 780cv con ruedas de carreras en el eje trasero.....muy 🔝 y con una potencia equilibrada.
The Supra was my childhood dream car, i used to froth over them so hard…
then i became an adult and realised they are absolutely SHIT.
Except the engine.
Plus 90% of the owners cant drive for their fkn life & put some stupid license plate that has to involve “2jz”
Even the engine isn't all that impressive. In its day it was just easy to make 450hp+ with and the community around it went nuts with big singles for highway runs.
Yeah ok, talking nonsense. With the right setup and driver it will run rings around must modern cars
@@rpw2003 that’s the most ignorant statement ive ever heard… tell me one car a supra can out-gun in any scenario?…

The 780hp sounds the best, EPIC! 😊
Think what we can see from the street / no prep surface and different cars and powers is that rwd 750>850bhp is the sweet spot, awd 800>1100bhp and for us fwd lads it’s 450>600bhp is our sweet spot. Absolutely mental battle this one was Jamie! Got some mad looking screen shots of the guy with steering wheel on full opposite lock while the car is completely side ways and you can see the rear of the other cars from his drivers side window 😂.
The Toyota's Supra aren't the faster cars in the world but when modified the surely are in the Top 10 that put a smile in your face like no others, it's really pure to drive it not a lot of controls that cut your driving pleasure.
