" If that's your thing, modding cars, then this is a great car. (no argument there) If you however couldn't care less about modding cars (ME) then it was a bit shit. ANd Making an engine produce 500+ horse power without making the chassis/suspension better is a bit stupid. Anyway, I was talking about the off the shelf car. Not it's modding potential. Or any modded versions regardless of how much or little modding was done. Furthermore, I disagreed respectfully with the other poster based on my own considerable experience with an unmodified car. So why are you asking me what im talking about. It's blatantly obvious what im talking about. Don't be butt hurt because someone doesn't like a car that you like. It's called having an opinion.

If you say the stock 2JZGTE was shitty for a 30 grands car at this time, I have no idea what may satisfy you. As for the 500+hp being stupid without modifying the chassis... Well that shows some seriously lack of knowledge about the car. All in all, this car was most probably the fastest and most reliable in his category, as well as being an extremely good car for people into car modding.

DAGATHire If you are talking about the fact that many people who drive this are idiots, i can partly agree. There seem to be many people who think they are "the shit" when they own one. But on the other hand, these people always think like that, be it a civic, a Benz or Golf. If you really think the car wasn't good however, i cannot agree with you. Even in its stock form it is a really fun car do drive in. I do not know if it was the "best" back then, but i certainly know it is really fun to drive and looks very nice in its stock form ( i dont like most bodykits at all, BUT thats an opinion). The engine is really really reliable, i know people who have driven the 2jz in stock form for more than 200k miles and ongoing without any problems. I think overall its a really great GT-Car. It is not really a sports car, but i personally like it even in stock form. Hell, even the N/A models have enough power to get problems with the police. Plus they sound mental with just a catback exhaust.

I would still love to see Clarkson test one of these, even though they are old cars they have everything he likes in a car.... Big straight 6 up front, 6 speeds in the middle and power at the back. Add the right hand drive and the two fat slugs under the hood, he would enjoy it for sure. Ive seen him test the R34 but ive yet to see him in an MK4

That last part--such a commendable display of intelligence and reverence towards other car enthusiasts. May your wisdom be immortalized for future inspiration or demotivation.

Really doesn't seem that long ago this Top Gear was on at around 4 in the morning, during the BBC broadcast that took over til local tv resumed for the day on this side of the planet. Always enjoyed this show but never expected it would become as popular as it did

Back then this car was well reviewed and so it should have been. I miss the days when this was regarded as a exceptional car, and not of mythical ungodly status commanding triple digit msrp’s…..

yeah man miss the days where japanese sports cars where just that stupid gen z influencers from tik tok ruined it

the description haha

That bonnet scoop doesn't look like it belongs there

For the time it's made that was the only one engine block, that can be pumped up to 1000 bhp. Impressive engineering.

2019?

Haha vintage street glow..

The RPM is in the middle because shifting is more important than knowing how fast you’re going. You’re ether going extremely fast or slow in this thing and the engineers knew that.

It’s too bad these were mostly ruined by teenagers and people that still think they’re teenagers. God... I can already see the hate comments coming.

Who opens and closes a trunk by the spoiler!?!?😑😑

You can do that with the 928 though, it's strong as hell

I can't believe how much hate this car is getting. It can make 1000whp on a STOCK block and I've seen the tranny/rear end hold 1400whp.. STOCK. Say what you will about this car, but it's pretty damn impressive. And no I'm not turning this into an import vs domestics battle.

You've seen a stock Supra tranny hold 1400whp....? It would turn to dust on the first launch. The stock transmission is not capable of that kind of power. Most people get a new gearbox once they breach 400hp - after that, 99% of people recommend upgrades or you're going to blow your tranny very fast. Same goes for the engine. Significant internal upgrades are needed past 600hp. It is an awesome car, but it is not this god car everybody is making it out to be. It may be fast in Fast and Furious, but in real life it's a 10+ year old car. It's OLD. I would wager that on a track a stock 2002 Supra would struggle to keep up with a V6 Mustang or Camaro.

Adeum Deus - No. Stock transmission can handle up to 1400bhp. It's a well known fact. Maybe not the diff, but the transmission can.

Adeum Deus Look up Ryan Woon. Most of his videos say stock transmission/rear end. Yes his motor is built, but there are several other supras making over 1000HP on a stock block. Do your research.

Also one reason the stopped making them was that as they came out of the factory, they were actually faster then most police forces without being tuned or fixed at all. The stock version was a beauty and still is.

The good old days when Top Gear was all about the cars and not the egos of the hosts.

No... you would always want the tach in the middle. Bro, do you even drift?

"No, this is not some concept car of the future promised for delivery in the year 2001" ...DEAR GOD I'M OLD....lol

Little did he know......

the 1998 supra ..ahhhh i have a deep love for it... basically because it came along on the same year i was born and when i was about 7 years of age to about 10 i looked up to an illegal street racer who drove one...... i still remember how i felt when i heard the whistling sound of the turbo's from a long distance and the feeling i got when it took off and the thrill the brutal acceleration gave. the second im old enough and when i get enough money il get one.

Quick history lesson: After Clarkson left Top Gear in the late 90's it got cancelled and the presenters went and started 5th Gear on another channel, then a few years later Clarkson convinced BBC2 to bring back Top Gear. Thats why old Top Gear looks like 5th Gear, because Tiff/Vicky/Quentin were on TG first.

2JZ-GTE most potent monster ever.. Song is "Have a Cigar" by Pink Floyd in case you were wondering.

They had no idea how popular that car would become 20 years later

It's ALL about the inline 6. Inline 6 crams more displacement in a tighter, lighter and more stable platform than a V6. Less engine stabilization is necessary, more room in the engine compartment but it is a bit harder to take advantage of the natural airflow at the front of the car. BMW engineers realize the value of of the Inline 6 platform.

he was wrong about 2001 cars looking like what with those lights but he is still right about putting supercars to shame.

This is Top Gear, because Tiff Needel is a former co-presenter of Top Gear and currently the co-presenter of Fifth Gear.

You do realize Tiff Needell was in the old Top Gear right?

Very weird supra. No tuning, stock turbo, no flames from exhaust, no crazy antilag

Your gonna fly high , your never gonna die , your gonna make it if you try , theyre gonna love you !

they really weren't used in most cars and racing until the late 60's, mid 70's along with the birth of noss.

It's kinda hard to get what TG we are talking about when someone say "Old Top Gear", do they mean the version of the 70's to early 2000 or the one from 2002 - 2015? It's clearly that this is the 90's version but still, when you only see the thumbnail without any Moderators...

A lot of these “old Top Gear” videos were uploaded when the 02-15 version was still on the air.

@VBSouthpaw I totally agree, and that is what the bloke says in regards to the Supra set up. Its the massive turbo massive lag setups that are "crude" in that they add peak power and not much else.

So I think old Top Gear become the first people to stick an undercar light kit on it

Well, Tiff may simply be referring to the fact that during that time period of car making, bolting a turbo to a run of the mill engine was the way forward to making a more exciting car, however the art of turbo charging at the time was rather hit or miss, heavy lagging or lacklustre results were common, Tiff also drove F1 cars during the legendary "turbo era", which were savagely powerful with rough power deliverly

This plays more like a 90's softcore compared to new top gear.
