[@contraststriker8198]

This is how these 2 cars won their reputation. Not in that fast and furious shit

[@GoldNargacuga]

very true, but was JGTC popular in the US during those times? im asking for myself lol.

[@MiGujack3]

In Japan it did, but not anywhere else. So yeah that fnf shit is still valid, along most racing games of the late 90s and early 2000's.

[@supramanx1997]

Woulda' been if they showed it, most people were widely just getting used to having a home computer and the dial-up Internet of the time and so many couldn't look it up or be exposed here, but it probably got buried on TV and mainstream magazines to try and keep a pulse on NASCAR ​@@GoldNargacuga

[@briansingh1631]

lol yup😂

[@GoomDuy28]

Seems like people forgot Tom's Supra and Nissan Penzoil R34 are also Gran Turismo legends which is also JGTC legends

[@karussoul]

Instead of the iconic 2JZ-GTE, the Castrol Tom's Supra is powered by the smaller 3S-GTE, the same engine used in the Toyota MR2 GT. The reason is because the 3S-GTE is smaller, lighter, has a lower center of gravity, and it was good enough to handle the power and torque. However, the 3S-GTE could only do so much, and Toyota decided the engine had no more room for improvement. So instead of the 2JZ-GTE, they used a stroked up 3UZ-FE for the Woodone Tom's Supra. It is the 4.3L naturally aspirated V8 used by cars such as the Lexus LS430, but stroked up to 5.2L. The reason of this change was to gain torque in lower rpm. I find it interesting that the JGTC Supras never used the 2JZ-GTE.

[@Thebasscatcher]

Did the skylines use the rb26 in this year ?

[@benjamindobson7351]

I believe it was a weight issue. The uz engines are actually lighter then the jz and maybe the 3s. The 3s I do believe is a 4cyl 2j, the block to the head, and everything is the same just a 4 cyl. And with the power limits I think the uz was the better option. Wasn’t the power limit around 500?

[@SilentMovements305]

Thank you for the info

[@kizzagt]

​@@Thebasscatcher yes it was the last season for the RB26 before they switched to the VQ30 engine.

The Aura between this two machine it's just so monstrosity strong as the iconic Pioneer gt machine of Gran Turismo

Officially own both on GT7 and they nailed it.

[@shariqhasan6220]

Yes you are right. The Gran Turismo series was inspired by JGTC. Most of the special model cars that appeared in the very first game actually competed in JGTC.

[@D_LGND]

They mention this race in GT7 when you ask one of the guys at the Café information on the Pennzoil GT-R

[@tobi_is_here9106]

I wanted to buy both but I could only afford one so I bought the r34, now I'm saving for the supra

1:06 to 1:07 skyline driver had overtaken the supra. but the skyline driver was just too stupid and made a huge space for the supra to overtake and take the lead again. But on final lap, the skyline managed to be on the lead. That was an epic comeback right there

Y asi te das cuenta lo ignorante que es la gente cuando no les gustan los autos japoneses, te diran "solo te gustan por que salieron en rapido y furiosos" hermano todas las compañías japonesas tienen historia en las carreras, hasta Suzuki, el suzuki escudo pikes peak, hasta el civic tiene historia en las carreras, y si te pones a pensar un poco literalmente estas comprando un auto de carreras solo que claro debes tu mismo potenciar el motor ya que en los 90s la potencia de 300hp era muy alta, si mira al Lamborghini countach tenia como 390hp y tenia un v12, ya hoy en dia la potencia de los autos es exagerada, y si tienes un auto de 200hp te dicen lento o que tu auto es una basura, la cultura automotriz se ha deteriorado mucho despues de los 90s y 2000s.

As far as i know all GT 500 cars had around 500 HP and Mclaren F1 GTR had 600. How is that?Was he destroked to 500 or something?

[@KikuraKun]

GT500 cars were restricted to 500BHP at that time, like those FIA GT3s in GT300 were restricted to 295BHP in order to enter the season. You see why DBR9 were so slow thanks to its aerodynamics and tyres. F1 GTR was very competitive thankfully.
