Two cars? Alright then.
First was the 3.0GT Turbo A which puts out 272bhp after an oil change.
Then it was off to Trial Mountain again for a test drive.
The Supra feels pretty good, nice and stable under power and it definitely doesn't step out anywhere near as much as the Spirra last week even on comfort soft tyres. Lap time was 1:52.475 but I'm sure others will go a lot faster.
I tried the Motegi Super Speedway next for the first time and ended up with a fastest lap of 46.235.
Then it was off to my Toscana track again for a one-make race.
Next I wanted to compare the 2.5GT Twin Turbo. My used one has 15,000 miles on the clock and came up with 272bhp after an oil change, the same at the 3.0 Turbo.
Round Trial Mountain I clocked a 1:51.363, so a bit quicker. This model does feel like it accelerates a bit quicker and grips slightly better.
For this weeks paint job I used the Toyota Yellow Mica Metallic and changed the wheels to BBS RE-MG.
In a comparison of the tests the 2.5GT wins just.
----------3.0GT----2.5GT
1/4 mile--15.429----15.153
1 mile----37.286----36.655
0-60-----6.857-----6.764
0-100----16.148----15.305
G--------0.50-------0.52
(Yet) another good choice for COTW and one I had overlooked, with some tweaking it will make an excellent 500pp competitor in the seasonals.
