Talk about top end power (800 WHP) with a STOCK Block! And it looks so damn fine!

How would you compare your turbo integra vs the supra, is there even a comparrison? I've really really been considered getting a tt supra and selling my GSR, I have a drag III kit sitting on my floor waiting for the dealership to install my new block under warranyt on July 8th before I can install the kit.

honestly. not much of a comparison. rwd vs fwd, 2600lbs vs 3400lbs ...... it's a different car......as for speed .....i just hit 160mph going down a hill and i had just entered 6th gear and it was pulling incredibly hard. i got way too scared so i had to slow down.

if you don't know much about cars/engines/turbos...get the honda.....work with it, learn on it, then if you feel the need, build up your honda and if that doesn't satisfy you.....try a supra or a car with more displacement/potential.

i loved my teg, and i kinda regret not putting it together because it would have been even faster than the supra is now....

Its a totally different ball game. A turbo Integra is a fun car thats great to learn on, cheap to work on compared to a supra, and is easily affordable, insurrance and gas wise.. Plus, most supras u need cash to buy since most banks wont give loans for 30k dollar cars that are 5+ years old. a Supra is a MUCH MUCH more expensive investment, but when u r pushing 700rwhp on stock block, it makes it all worth it. after college ill probably get a supra and keep the teg as the daily.

285's in the rear...

typical stereotypes . blame it on the older rich guys who have supras and don't know how to drive. although the suspension isnt perfect for drag racing, thats not what i bought the car for.

I'd love to pick up a nicer car, but unitl I make a lot more money... a.... LOT more money. It's not possilble. Until then, I have turbo sitting in my family room waiting to be put in my Civic.

Someday, graduate... buy a nicer car. BMW M3.. maybe a EVOVIII. Keep Civic turbo for project car a daily car.

****... I live in michigan.. and there would be no way in hell I would drive a supra in the winter. Gotta have a beater.

Nice car by the way.

I wouldnt buy a Supra thats older than 95 so were talking $25,000+ for a car with around 80K miles.

Personally, for a around $25000, give or take, I would buy a 97-98 C-5 with low miles. With my knowledge I would put a TT on it and Z06 heads.

It would be newer, rarer car, handle better, look better IMO, and be easier to find than a supra.

Insurance...well im over 25 so it be about the same for both cars.

Thats just what I would do.

I think supras are the ultimate ride. just a few minor modifications and you have over 500HP.
