Garage R's Toyota Supra
-
this car is being featured in this month's HOTstuff magazine. it has 800bhp.
i donno anything about modifications and stuff but how come it is road legal? i donno if the parts are legal or not.. but even within the legal modification range in singapore, is it possible to tune a 320bhp way up to 800bhp?
this supra is for sale too.. any idea how much its gonna cost?
0-100km/h in 4.2s
0-400km/h in 11.85s
power 780ps @ 4000rpm
torque 910Nm @ 4800rpm -
Errrr, alot?

Last time I saw, going for $168k or so renew 10 yrs COE..
Yes, Supra can go up to 1000+ bhp, and most of the time still using stock engine!
Usually its bored up to 3.2litre and strengthened... using extremely big turbos, like maybe T88H, can reach 1000+ bhp. Skylines are similar, using the stock RB26DETT, can reach high horsepower. But mostly they are bored up 200-400 ml more. -
yeah bro...saw it abt that price. $168k. anyway...this supra here is scary....seen it once on road...wah piang...the idling...u can feel its vibration man...Originally posted by CryoGenic:Last time I saw, going for $168k or so renew 10 yrs COE..

Next time you see him, ask him to go to Changi South... Some Magentis drivers are looking for himOriginally posted by KhidMasAE86:yeah bro...saw it abt that price. $168k. anyway...this supra here is scary....seen it once on road...wah piang...the idling...u can feel its vibration man...

WAKAKAKAAKAKAKAAKAKA!!!!! i think should have no problem with that since kia magenta or magentis watever it is driver are "fast!"Originally posted by Bloop...:Next time you see him, ask him to go to Changi South... Some Magentis drivers are looking for him -
omg? $168k for a 800bhp car is freaking cheap.. such money for such power.. i believe this car can outrun a ferrari or lambo anytime..
-
yeap cheap..
168k probably get u only a BMW 3series
anyway there's a smug statement in the specs list of the hot stuff feature of that car.
it says " top speed 320kmh. limited by it's stock transmission" -

there is more to speed than just bhp.Originally posted by zerocool85:omg? $168k for a 800bhp car is freaking cheap.. such money for such power.. i believe this car can outrun a ferrari or lambo anytime..
a McLaren F1 would need 'just' 370bhp if the designers wanted a top speed of 320km/h for it. -
what u mean by a smug statement? paiseh english not very good. haha.Originally posted by bismarck:yeap cheap..

and what about that statement? when i read it, my first impression was.. the supra can go much faster.. but bcoz of the stock trans.. its limited up to 320.. -
well my interpretation of that wasOriginally posted by zerocool85:what u mean by a smug statement? paiseh english not very good. haha.

" garage r can (easily) make the car so powerful and fast, if can change tranny, garage r can make it even faster..."
smug means " hao lian"
zc so humble.. -
using the bhp : speed relational equation, assuming all else equal(esp since it's running a stock transmission) I calculated that the unlimited top speed is about 340km/h, using the following specifications TAKEN from www.supercars.net:Originally posted by bismarck:yeap cheap..

stock bhp: 320bhp
top speed: 250km/h -
lol. well i just did the calculations. it's only another 20km/h more. A McLaren F1with "only" 444bhp will easily be as fast as a 800bhp Supra.Originally posted by bismarck:well my interpretation of that was

u know waht;s the meaning of 'only' here ?Originally posted by HENG@:lol. well i just did the calculations. it's only another 20km/h more. A McLaren F1with "only" 444bhp will easily be as fast as a 800bhp Supra. -
lol. yup. Though, compared to an actual mclaren, it's like 200bhp short.Originally posted by bismarck:u know waht;s the meaning of 'only' here ?
Zerocool85:
lets put this into perspective. a McLaren F1 with slightly over half the power of a 800bhp supra would easily be as fast as the Supra. Why? This is a very good example of how a car's speed is not solely dependent on power. -
what i mean is....444bhp is ALOT.Originally posted by HENG@:lol. yup. Though, compared to an actual mclaren, it's like 200bhp short.

anyway why not put it this way, bhp is how fast u reach top speed (am i right?) top speed is regulated by...well...heng..answer! -
aerodynamics, weight distribution, overall weight, transmission, engine cooling, max power@high engine speed(not so sure)...Originally posted by bismarck:what i mean is....444bhp is ALOT.

a McLaren with 444bhp is underpowered. can be called baby Mac liao.Originally posted by bismarck:what i mean is....444bhp is ALOT.

er... actually how fast u reach top speed is acceleration. and acceleration is determined by torque.
top speed is partially determined by 3 things:
bhp
tyre rolling resistance which depends on resistance coefficient, weight of the car, and to a certain extent, the speed at which the car is at.
aerodynamic drag which depends on the frontal area of the car, the drag coefficient of the car and the square of the speed which the car is at. -

weight distribution does not affect top speed. transmission does not play a part in determining engine top speed like the 3 factors i've listed do. instead, a 100% efficient transmission would be able to allow the car to travel to it's theoratical top speed, and the actual top speed is otherwise determined by how efficient the transmission is and the operating limits of the transmission. for all theoratical calculations, we always assume transmission to be 100% efficient, or that the transmission efficiency remains constant, if we already have a set of experimental data to work with.Originally posted by TwinTurbo_Supra:aerodynamics, weight distribution, overall weight, transmission, engine cooling, max power@high engine speed(not so sure)... -
wah... who was that?Originally posted by bismarck:ok...give me 10mins to shoot that bugger who taught me all the wrong stuff.. -
it doesnt? i tot a mid-engined car wud have more downforce? hence, a more stable chasis at high speeds...Originally posted by HENG@:weight distribution does not affect top speed. transmission does not play a part in determining engine top speed like the 3 factors i've listed do. instead, a 100% efficient transmission would be able to allow the car to travel to it's theoratical top speed, and the actual top speed is otherwise determined by how efficient the transmission is and the operating limits of the transmission. for all theoratical calculations, we always assume transmission to be 100% efficient, or that the transmission efficiency remains constant, if we already have a set of experimental data to work with. -
