Supra VS Stang

[Solarassult]

Ok my girls friend has an 800 hp supra and when ever my car becomes the topic in a conversation and shes around she starts talkin about his supra........Now my question is if i get my 93 hatch to 800 hp would it be a close race or who would be in better \shape? I know supras are fast but is 800 hp 800 hp?

Ummm, is their proof that it makes 800 HP? Like, I had a guy say the other day that his 00 2V GT with a Vortech made 600HP

BTW - Put something in you sig so that we know what your combo is

I agree, lots of people do the sticker dyno. Have you seen this car running on the street?

LOL empty signatures really erk you, huh? You're becoming the signature sheriff around here

If it really makes that power great, you will not need 800rwhp all you will need is about 550-600ish especially if you go from a stop. The supra's power band is real narrow compared to a V8 and their power under the curve is not as good. Thus a stang can do more with less.

Well, here's a clip of a claimed 600whp Supra vs a 500rwhp Cobra: http://supra.sysadmin-racing.com/videos/temp/cruise.wmv
BTW - the Supra sounds SICK!!!!!!

[tireburner163]

the previous post was correct. Run him from a dig and you'll only need about 500-600hp. Supra's SUCK off the line.......they're killer from a roll though.

But make sure he isn't full of shit about having 800hp.

Thanks guys...Does anyone know what the average street racer runs ET? I mean does anyone like have an average or anything?

[Solarassult]

Hey guys another VS question.....I have an up coming race with my friend. I have the 5.0 hatchback. My friend has a 88 ranger with a 5.0 engine from a lincon or something. Im just wondering who should win this race. If he is gonna win by a land slide ill put my charger on if not ill leave it off. Any help?

Hell Yeah it does!!

Solarassult - We really can not answer you questions, till we see what you have.

[91LX2Bfast]

Solarassult - just telling us the engines in both vehicles are 5.0L's doesn't help us at all.
Modded or stock? Gearing? Trans? Etc....

BTW - you live in Atco. Why don't you take care of your stuff on the 1/4 mile? There's no reason at all you should be messing around on the street with a track minutes from your residence. Plus, you'll get real timesand MPH and you won't have to play these guessing games.

[Solarassult]

We are doin this at the track but the supra is in NH and doesnt race on the track so i just figured id ask about the ranger in here to.


Ok he has a 5.0l with an AOD tranny and echaust is headers into a y pipe . He doesnt have many mods.

I have the 5.0 with headers to h ipe then flowmaster system. I have 3.73 gears and cold air intake. Dont know to much about it yet. And what is a combo? Just the parts i have?

They're those little pretzel thingies with cheese in the middle of them. They come in Nacho Cheese, Pizza, and a couple other flavors I beleive. Mmmm, I'm hungry.

j/k

Welcome to MustangWorks!

Yes, your 'combo' is the aggregate of aftermarket parts you have on your car.

And, Ackbar will hound you for days, if not weeks, until you get a signature made!

Top of the page pick "Profle", next pick "Edit Profile" A few lines down, you will see signature. At this point, you add WHat you got

I was told by many different people that it only takes about 500 horspower "fox body" to beat a 800 horspower Supra, for various reasons like stated in the earlier posts. (this would be at the drag strip and not from a role)
My .02's

[Solarassult]

he has to give up sum time...doesnt he?

[Solarassult]

I know this one is off topic but it doesn look like the audio fourm gets much attention......How do i remove the interioer of a 94 so that i can change the sterio? This isnt the car that ill be using to whip the street with the supra lol
This is to be my show car..can anyone sugest a truly aww inspiring kit for it? so far im looking shogun but i am open thanks guys.

If they've got an 800hp can and won't take it to the track, then they're yankin your chain and are either

A. Not makin the power they claim
B. A horrible driver
C. Scared to get embarassed infront of a crowd
etc. etc......

Tell them to bring out the proof of the 800 hp and then consider it, till then just blow them off and consider it a 800hp pipe dream.

That is because "the track", "all tracks", are in a different space-time continuums. Where 10 second cars are quickly turned into 14 second slugs.

Ok he has a 5.0l with an AOD tranny and echaust is headers into a y pipe . He doesnt have many mods.

Some of the Lincoln motors are the same as the mustang. The AOD should be his down fall if it is stock and you have a five speed. If it is a non H.O. 5 liter in the ranger and it is stock you still should beat him.
