grrr
back to the weight thing ( damn honda. i don't drive a whale ), a xr6 turbo falcon weighs 1795kg, r34 skyline weighs 1666kg and has a more similar engine cc-wise. 1500kg aint really that much for a turbo 3L ( -ish ) i-6. who was it first called the supra a pig ?

So I bought this old Honda bike, an NSR250. Bit of a street racer, I guess. I'm told they're fast.
Delivering it home with a friend driving the Supra for the first time. I drop gears and make a scream from the twin pipes flowing down this pony's flanks and it takes off like it's tail's on fire.
I look back when the Honda gets to its tap-out and the Supra's only two lengths behind. No one I've let ride my bike has told me its slow, they've all loved the thing. That car is a good thing indeed.
