Boating and skis too
supercharged. Think it will do high 60s. Kids mostly use it. I am the maintenance man…. Have ridden some and it is BIG water here so I don’t go much over 60. Once you fall off one of these things at speed- well, you don’t want to again. But boats are another...
Not much supply.... hard to believe there is even less demand?
wonder if the sales figures have been updated?
edit:
I just googled...

In my BMW/Supra world I would call my KW rep. If they came off a competition car the valving should be almost custom and have high spring rates. you should be able to get spring rates off the numbers on the springs. Euro car or american? euro cars and tracks tend to be set up much softer...
I agree with golden age and hooray for almost any 2-door sports car.
h o w e v e r, as someone that still owns a 2002 M3- that analog/raw feeling is lacking these days. Lots of these sports cars have lost the driver/road connection with all the gee wiz ecus, sound deadening numb feeling/safe...

the difference...

I don't drive a Nissan obviously but have been watching/involved because I am always looking for the next track toy. But I am a fan of any manufacturer who still has balls to make a real sports car these days!

Basic sports car knowledge?
sequential are race derived. cannot be put into an automatic mode. sequential have diff cut gears and can NOT be skipped over like an auto that can shift from 3 to 6th for example.
you would NOT want a sequential for a daily.
Sequential have NO torque converter...
Guess the same could be said for the Supra costing 10k less? Put 200tw tires on the Zupra like the Nismo and the gap would widen. Spend 10k in mods on the Zupra and the gap would get silly.
I am glad the Nismo is much better and track focused. Not sure how many will actually track? The...
