been thinking of changing the 182 for something completely different, just gettting bored of having the two clio's, so was thinking sell the 182, keep the track for meets, shows, B road blasts etc, so i was thinking, Celica GT4, Supra, or something simular!!!

Please Express your opinions please peeps

much appreciated

I would pick the supra over the gt4, looks better, quicker(once moving).

The supra is the clear winner as there wasnt a gt4 in the fast and the furious :lol:

My dad had an ST205 GT4. It was a very good car, but not a particularly exciting one. Look great, very secure and solid handling, pretty quick, very reliable. But compared to a 320bhp rear-drive beastie, it's not really in the same league.

Supra all the way 8)

i've tried on both mate £708 fc or £800 and something for celica gt4, both affordable and cheaper than 182, i just fancy summit that handles completely different plus i still have valver anyway

The fast tyre replacements alone will bankrupt him. Supra all the way, it's like TVR but reliable.

i'd like to say they probably would mate but i only pay cost on tyres (family business is a tyre bay and a test & repair centre) so it ain't that much of a problem, lol

PS. Make sure you get a UK car, because they come with much bigger and better brakes. And only a manual will do!

manual supra boxes are almost as bad as clio ones when you put power into them most ppl have autos cos the boxes are so much stronger

I've heard of people putting autos in because they can handle more power, but the Supras I've had experiance of (one around 400bhp, two around 600bhp and one just over 800bhp) have all been manual and had no problems.

...Unless Bayliss plans a 1000bhp monster, an auto is just wrong :P

I've had a quote fully comp with NCD protection on the Supra for under £600... it's running one that would be the problem... get the later VVTI model from Japan, much quicker and easier to drive

GT4's are amazing cars, tune past 300bhp easily (unlike Scoobs) and look mint imo!
