It wasn’t until the Supra was released for the B58 to start getting support. Unfortunately, most people have less funds right now and interest rates are high. It doesn’t make sense to buy a car.

Almost all VR30TT cars are underrated. My cousin had a Redsport 400 and it was pushing almost 400whp. Guaranteed the Nismo with the special tweaks and tuning is probably making 420 if not more to the wheels. Where as the new GTs dyno between 380 and 400whp but they also weigh 200+ lbs more. A better race would be the 10 speed dark horse.

Was Permium fuel used in both cars? This allows ECU to advance spark and injectors to best settings.

Love your reactions Sam and great effort trying to catch up with the Z, haha. I'm surprised how well the Z did, VR30 motor loves cooler weather! Would be much closer on a hot day. Mustang design just keeps growing on me but would prefer the lighter Z. May I suggest showing us some weather details in the beginning?(temp, humidity). Great video! 👍
