Depends on what you like. It's fine to me. It does oversteer a lot.

I don't know.. I haven't maxed it out yet, and you can fine tune it.

Well... in U1 it wasnt even worth driving.. Is it actually competitive in U2?

ok i just unlocked the supra, and all of u supra fans are going to be disappointed.... let me start of with this:

i unlocked the car, and checked out how many gears it has, it has 6...
-->so i was like its the twin turbo supra

then i went to the dyno, and got a shocking read out...
--->225 bhp...

then i was like EA f*cked up again!!! the 6 speed supra only came in the twin turbo version which had 320 hp!!!! the NA version had 220 hp, and 5 speed, not 6!!!

so sorry guys, the supra u start out with sucks a lot.... really pissed at EA for not realizing this....

i guess they are just scared of realizing the true potential of the SUPRA :twisted:

Sad.. Sad.. IT WAS ABOUT THE HANDLING, not if the car was identical.

What you have to realize is that they would have had to specially balance the supra with the turbo upgrades if it was already the turbo'd version, if it got the same benefits of adding turbo 1-2-3 that all the other cars do it would easily be the fastest car in the game. I think it was probably made as it is so that it wouldnt dominate the field in stock form, you still have insane potential after tuning... so stop whining. if this game was remotley realistic the mustang turbocharged and fully tuned would be able to push out something like 1000 horsepower.

Moosehead115 makes sense... keep in mind guys, this is a game, and EA didn't want to make a highly realistic SIMULATION game that comes with a seperate 300 pages manual for each car.

now i understand that all of you supra fans are getting dissapointed but it gets annoying when the same question is asked again and again... so once and for all, hopefully (keeping fingers crossed).

"The SUPRA handles better in NFSU2 than in NFSU1."

as far as stats are concerned this is pretty much what you can get after you have all the parts upgrade.

keep in mind that this is NOT a fine tuned car so you can get better, if not MUCH better results after spending hours on the dyno and test track.

1st thing, u can adjust the steering, under the suspension tuning menu, i dont how much a difference it would make though. 2nd if its a turbo vers, u will have a boost guage. i havent driven the supra yet, but i have driven a 3000gt, and was pleasently surprised it had a turbo in stock trim.

supra handles like a freakin school bus in dis game, drifting in it is gettin annoying, not to mention all the spinouts i keep getting. i suck at rwd. luckily its still powerful

driving RWD in this game is almost like driving RWD in real life, except its about 300 times more forgiving (mostly because the game doesnt come with a pedal so you can only do throttle on, or throttle off)
let off the gas earlier into a corner, or you will over power your back end and go into a spin. you can use this effect (sparingly!!!) to help around tight corners, with a little coercion from the ebrake as well (again, balancing issues) once you have come around and the spin is subsiding, you can tap the throttle, or hammer it on... it is just a matter of learning when you can, and countersteering properly and not too long.

Well have a look in my Best Motoring thread, I did a comparison against other high end cars there.
And of course, my own view on the Supra handling ;) in short, I like it.
I am in my rythm, in my groove when the car oversteers.

Normally i don't post but i find this rather interesting. so here's my first post here.

i find it interesting of the different result we had on the ' Not ' fine tune and fully upgraded parts for the supra. In my opinion the supra handle like a dream.

my top speed bar at the bottom is much lower but the output was higher?

inkZ that is VERY interesting!!!

you are sure you are dynoing from a completley STOCK setting?!

unique upgrades maybe?

I did the dyno on default setting after upgrading the performance parts. i haven't got the chance to do any fine tuning on the supra yet. but i did with my first car which was the 240sx. and only unique performance upgrade i recieved was put on the 240sx and not the supra...
