im debating wether to get a 96 hatchback gt or pay a little less for an mkIII supra turbo. i mean i know the supra is much faster but i love the look of the 6th gens and they r pretty rare around here, i just want to know if they are gona be able to hold there own with the common cars around here. im not talkin like vets and vipers but i mean the civics and cavaliers with all show no go. so by experience is ur celica a slow car? (stock of course) o and also, is there any mods for cheap to raise around the 150 or more hp mark without turbo-ing or swapping? thnx in advance

95 toyota celica GT liftback, according to car and driver, does 0-60 in 8 flat, and the quarter mile in 16.5 yes, i have to say that supra is significantly faster than a 6th gen, but in terms of any other sporty car thats semi modern... All of these numbers have also come from Car and Driver 95 acura integra GS-R 0-60 in 7 flat, and the quarter mile in 15.6 95 DSM AWD 0-60 in 6.6, quarter mile in 15.3 95 prelude VETEC 0-60 in 6.5, quarter mile in 15.1 *95 acura integra LS 0-60 in 7.5, quarter mile in 15.9* - even the basic integras are nipping the heels of the mk3 and to make matters even worse, any new family midsize with a 6 cylinder AND an auto would give the supra a run for its money. Think accord V6, Camry SE V6, Nissan Altima 3.5 SE ( 5.9 and 14.6 with a stick- fast stuff for a family car) The moral of this story- The Mk3 Supra is old technology. -------------------- Car #3: 98 Accord LX- purchased 5/06, totaled 8/06
Car #2: 95 Celica GT- purchased 8/03, current daily driver Car #1: 01 Focus ZX3- purchased 5/01, sold 8/03 |
