Hi folks, that's my Supra in the video. What a fun day at the drag strip! We knew these cars would be close, we just didn't know how close. But that's the fun of showing how good modern cars have gotten compared to the classics. I've done two major modifications to the Supra: an HKS Hi-Power exhaust for a little more sound and KW V3 suspension to replace an aging stock suspension. Otherwise, all stock. The automatic transmission doesn't serve the Mk4 well, you're either full throttle to get the most out of it or it shifts at times that don't do the car any favors. I'll do something with the transmission eventually, just not sure what yet. Thanks for watching!

[@justme307]

Leave the the transmission alone. It's probably the main reason the car hasn't been modified to within an inch of its life. It's a grand touring cruiser anyways. Too many cars today, like the GR Corolla, can whip it. Just be glad you found a pristine example and enjoy the car for what it is. That's my opinion, anyways.

[@richfarfugnuven6308]

Manual is always the way to go with older performance cars, IMHO.

[@electrikoptik]

You seem like a true Supra guy! You mentioned maybe going 6-speed route. The only downside is the insane cost of getting a V160 transmission. Many automatic owners are doing modern ZF 8HP swap. For example whizbits sell kits to easily do a modern 8 speed automatic swap. The 8HP transmission totally transforms the Supra!

[@jimmy-buffett]

@@electrikoptik I've been watching the ZF 8-speed swap videos, and am very interested. The miles on my car (155K) reduce the impact of doing something unique. I'm going to wait several years to do that though, I just got the car fully sorted and am not looking to mess with it for at least a couple of years.

Everyone thinks that buying a big vehicle is safer, everyone buys big vehicles and everyone is still equally as safe as they were back then (minus modern safety tech) but now we’re wearing out roads sooner and using up a bunch of materials and making overpriced oversized crap for the illusion of safety. I daily a 2013 Yaris and the inside of it is roomier than most modern regular compact and even some mid size cars out in the market now. The interior construction is built almost like a minivan, pushed forward and out making tons of legroom and space, and plenty of room out back for regularly sized people. I love its efficiency. Our cars are not efficient. Gas mileage of modern vehicles has not improved nearly as much as power and acceleration. It’s just extra waste. We’re living in a new malaise era.

[@BrianBeckman]

> and I believe it's because of the size. Contrary to popular belief, M4ks aren't very big; not even really by 90s standards. The wheelbase on a Mk4 is slightly smaller than a GR86 (100" vs 101") and the overall dimensions match that of a C4 Corvette. So it's really a 2+2 shoved into the space of an American 2 seater sports car. I think they are so rare that people have rarely, if ever, seen one up close in person, so people get the impression that they were big cars. But park one next to a modern (or 90s!) Camaro and you'll get an idea of just how small the Mk4 really is, the 6th gen Camaro has nearly a foot longer wheelbase and overall length, and is noticeably taller and wider.

The corolla hood height is almost as high as the original CRV. With 300hp 0 to 60 should be 4.8 seconds but the added weight doesn't help. If today's cars were light like 29 years ago they would get better mpg and be faster.

[@greggc8088]

I worked at the dealer when those Supra's were new. First one we got came off the truck with no gear oil in the 6 speed trans and the salespeople had already toasted it before it was PDI'd and found. I put a dash in a turbo one under warranty and had a good chance to ring it out for a good long test drive. It was quick for the day but it's really not pushing much boost. Like was said here, just a few modifications and it's a fast car. Still light in the rear end though.

[@evilinside5984]

@TflClassics- The manual transmission version's of both of these vehicles may be more "Fun" to drive, but they are not quicker in a drag race. The turbos stay spooled up better with the Automatics. For quickest setup= Add Hi-Stall speed Tq. Converter, & Drag radials.

[@Jeremy-cp9ti]

Good point

[@taelorwatson9822]

I wonder how much power Toyota could get out of the 2JZ with modern technology and knowledge. I would imagine 300 doable without even putting a turbo on it

[@malrofo]

That would be easy. Nissan reliably gets 300hp out of their 3.5. Add a little compression and timing and it'll do 300 all day

[@siraff4461]

Depends what you want from it. If it needs to meet emissions and warranty reliability levels then it would probably be in the low-mid 300's at best. It was always designed as a turbocharged engine so its not great when n/a tuned. Modern turbos and so on would see it into the late 300's but much after that and you would start running into cooling issues for prolonged use with modern emissions devices. If it was a case of 90's emission levels but modern tech probably into the 450+ range and if emissions just didn't matter 500+. If they didn't care about emissions or warranty north of 700 but again it gets to the stage where cooling (oil, intake and coolant) is the limiting factor for prolonged use. Thats why their endurance racers had the smaller 4-pot from the Celica and ran around 480hp - the lighter engine was also easier to package with the cooling equipment required. Look up the Castrol or Tom's Supras if you want to learn about them - they are pretty cool cars.

[@danielzhang1916]

It would probably be something similar to the Camry TRD engine

The auto transmissions nowadays are way faster to shift than those even 20 years ago. Nice video!

ok so, altitude should not affect a turbocharged engine unless the peak boost is very low, or the manifold pressure is capped by boost not actual manifold pressure. The turbo will just compress more air and compensate for the lower outside air pressure at any reasonable altitude below 10,000 feet at least.

[@dougpendleton1266]

I've long been a soapboxer on how heavy modern cars have gotten even since the 2010s, but this makes an excellent visual comparison. Not all that long ago, a hopped-up Corolla like the GR would be in the 23-2700lb range.

[@DillonAuto]

The J engine from Toyota is a diesel. This is the JZ engine. Big details....The 2-way turbocharger system Toyota works in a manner that is kind of complicated, leaving all the vacuum lines and controls you see under hood. The six cylinders feed the first turbine. Ad the rpm climbs, exhaust gas is bled into the second turbine to bring it online. Most can feel when they are both chugging along. And that is what happens. They are not sequential (first then second), it uses one, then both.

While I fully get where the Supra’s owner is coming from I would have to make improvements anywhere I could in the same way he did the exhaust. So I would probably go with slightly wider rims and tires, upgrade to the 6 speed stick, upgrade some of the suspension components like bushing, shocks, springs, etc., better air intake, MAYBE a boost controller…. Essentially, I’d keep it mostly stock, but improve the things I could without major changes to the overall infrastructure of the car. Make it perform better across the board in a way that could be reversed in a day or two. And considering just how much they are known to respond to upgrades, I suspect you’d enjoy significant “seat of your pants” improvements without spending a fortune or damaging the car.

[@scottythebody0811]

[@copperkeyracing6167]

Two very important points to note. 1) two years after the Supra came out it was determined that 100-200hp is all that could be gained on the factory Supra twin turbo motor, AND 2 years after the GR Corolla came out it was determined the same 100-200hp is all that could be gained on the factory GR Corolla Engine. Aftermarket develop takes time and isn't always an exact science until those that prove themselves come out of the woodwork with results. The Supra became shockingly modifiable when the right people suddenly came out with their results. Same thing with all the legendary motors, like the Mitsu 4G63, and the Honda/Acura kseries, and the current Supra, and the current GR Corolla. Next point 2) The 4th gen Supra was underrated, about 30hp. That specific car likely has 5-10hp more due to the exhaust and better&lighter modern tires. There was also a free mod where you bled/pinched off some of the pressure on the wastegate line and gained power, which this car likely has being as old as it is. The auto supra also weighs 200 lbs more than the auto GR Corolla. This proves it's not an apples to apples comparison, and unless you went back in time with a new GR Corolla, you're never going to get the true comparison... sufficeth to say that the GR Corolla is likely quicker in every respect.

[@danielzhang1916]

I don't think they were doing a straight comparison, but seeing how they would do, the GR is quicker

Love how kids think the 4th gen Supra is legend. The 4th gen had the worst sales of the Supra. Was the car that killed off the Supra at the time. Was expensive was considered fat and soft. The 2nd and 3rd gen Supra was way more loved at the time. Because used.ones were available and 3000 Mitsubishi was too much money for the budget F&F used a 4th gen in the movie then every millenial kid loved them. That said 4 gen Supra too anyone who was there in the 90's hated these cars and without F&F would have stayed unloved because still is soft and still looks fat.

Now we need this but with both manual cars , mayne throw in a a91 aswell to slap the b58 in there to .. would be a cool comparison, and im just a butthurt for a standard trans .. i hate autos lol , its disconnecting imo , you lose so much of your road to driver connection.. but still cool content guys .. peace and love all, keep it rad, stay safe, and build on.. ps i wish we got the GR yaris in the USA, now that would be a rad comparison, plus juat a rad ride imo .. anyways 💪🏽🤘🏽🤙🏽✌🏽

Its not nearly 20 years old my man, it's nearly 30 years old.

I'm sorry guys. You can make the Corolla go 500mph, but it will always be 5 door family hatchback. The Supra will ALWAYS be an icon.

[@ryanhall3689]

2 issues with comparison. What's the weight difference? If the boost restrictor wasn't removed, the supra doesn't have 320hp

Wdym?

The 30-year-old Supra design still looks fantastic. I couldn't care less that the Corolla hatchback is quicker to 100mph by a hair. The pokiness off the line is a bigger deal in day-to-day driving. At the end of the day, it's just a Corolla hatchback economy car with go-fast bits. It's not the flagship sports car like the Supra.

[@danielzhang1916]

the point is to compare how they do, that's like saying the Camry TRD is just a sedan, that's not the point

[@c12iticalmike]

The Power to weight ratio isn't the same. Also, that guy driving the Supra appears to be scared to drive.

90s technology still looking good

[@Stuka87]

Its kind of crazy how big the "compact" GR is next to the Supra.

[@whatsmining9917]

We drag raced the gr mk1 & a supra back in 2022 the supra runs in the 13s the gr managed 12.7 both manuals

[@Toyota4Life]

The Supra was known for its handling lol that was a strong point

1. Never race a twin turbo Supra 2. Never race a 03-04 SVT Cobra 3. See #1 and #2

Don’t be scared little baby boy. It’s just a race.

JZA80 Supra turbos are of equal size. They are Hitachi US spec has steel blades as opposed to the rest of the world who had weaker ceramic. US spec car also had more power from factory. Old mate should add an intercooler and boost controller.

Tommy - “The one thing about the Supra is the manual transmission is a little dim witted.” Okay, maybe when you’re driving, Tommy. ;)

18:11 The Corolla looks massive next to the Supra.

[@sneezinhatch]

The gr Corolla is making huge waves in the drag community people making 200 plus per cylinder. But you go built 2jz big single turbo automatic supra is superior
