Houston area (along with DB's not from Houston) BS thread

I always hated how 4th Gen Supras drove. Just big fucking tanks. Nice to cruise about in I guess, but not my kind of go-fast.

Finding a stock one for sale is definitely a "buy a lottery ticket" kind of day.

 

As a avid Supra lover, if you buy one it's cause it's your dream car or you got a good deal and plan on flipping it.

They're big. They're heavy. They're slow all stock and the money to mod one is insane. Plus it takes over 800hp to have a "fast" one.

They're beautiful though. The bodies and curves make it such a pretty car. That's the only reason I want one. I'd take a NA auto one just to look at in the yard and cruise in lol.

Corvette is a way better handling car and way more bang for the buck.

And a c5Z or c6Z honestly are almost as beautiful as a Supra

 

Its jdm muscle car!

Even though the talon can take 80lbs of boost

 

Come take my scooter for a ride, to get your fix. Lol

 

Most car weight between 3200 to 3500. Corvettes weighed the same as supra did. Hell, my z is about 3200.

 

What's bad is 800whp Supras in Houston aren't "fast" since there's1300-1800hp ones lurking around. Houston's performance community is intense.

 

True! Cars are coming out stock with 800hp. Lol

 

I went to Walmart at 5 this morning. Seen a chick sitting outside with a shopping cart full of Walmart bags. It seem weird she would buy so much stuff and not have a ride home. I would have offered her a ride home? But in my z, it would have only been her or her bags. But not both lol. Plus I couldn't see her face, her hair was covering it. And I was scar ed d she would like like that dead girl from the scary movies

 

I'm also sure she is still there lol

 

@phillstill I'm almost ready to come mess with your gate

 

I have a welding bed for sell....

 

Won't work lol.

 

Sweet. I’ll be home again in two week. Would June 16 work for you?

 

Funny you say that. I had a 1998 GSX sitting in my garage for the past year (literally my first car), gave it to a good buddy of mine up in Ft Worth this past week.

 

Actually yea cause I'm off those days and go in for a night run at work on the 18th.

 

That's awesome. My brother had a lot of PGTs over the years. One is farily 'famous' around the SF bay area it was a bright purple turbo build

 

Yeah exactly. I thought I would keep it forever, but I have a few small businesses I want to build out and leave the 9 to 5 grind and having it off my plate would really free up some cash and keep me focused.

They are pretty big and maybe not very light no. And yeah it definitely takes at least 800 to be quick. In terms of cost, building them to that power level is comparable to most cars but the reliability of that build will often be better. What's expensive about Supras is all their oem parts. I have headlights worth 1200 bucks, taillights worth 500, interior plastic panels worth a few grand, one is a window switch worth about 350. That's the insane part.

I agree they're gorgeous though and better to just have and look at.

Politely disagree corvettes are nearly as good looking though haha. I do like the look of the c6 zr1s, and I have respect for corvettes being the ultimate winner of 'bang for your buck' cars whether street, strip, or track racing. But I hate that 90% of them are filled with bald white dudes lol. I'd rather have a viper

 

Make it work

 

I already told you, roof rack for the Z. Just think of all the stuff you could get at Sam’s with that much room!

 

A regular bed has mor room than a welding bed lol
