( www.IMImotorsports.com ) The Nissan GT-R and Toyota Supra are two legendary Japanese names enthusiasts revere, but is Godzilla still the quickest sports car in the pack, or does the lighter, rear-wheel drive Toyota Supra put up a convincing fight (at half the price, no less)? The results are more surprising than you might think!

Id have the gtr because bmw reliability is not good
@@toyota420xp BMW has great reliability, but I do agree I would have the GT R.
That gtr is old tho. I would like them to release a new gtr
Can you guys add roll races too? Not every races is from a dig. Some of us street races find eachother in highways lol. Just like Carwow channel
I just don't know why BMW had built a 2.0L 4 cylinder if it has already the better/premium 3.0L V6. That',s crazy. That 4 cylinder should have put in the Yaris instead. The problem with that Nissan GTR has always been the weight. It's always so heavy & bulky for the power it generated. That's why it's always beaten by other cars in terms of speed like some of the BMW M's CS, Audi R8 & Porsche 911's. 😧
I don't know why I am watching this when I already know the result.
GT R all the way!
I just wanna see by how much
Becouse supra still grow...now ekanoo racing made supra 1027 WHP ❤️
@@Dsky-vu3nz that it's not a Supra, that's a BMW...
Waiting to see an all new generation of GTR vs Supra go at it..I knew the verdict as well but it was somewhat worth the watch
Fun fact the launch control in the GTR makes it a lot faster off the line, and the launch control in the supra makes it launch slower 🥴😂
Yea its true i agree. The launch control of bmws are horrible. Probably the worst in the world. If toyota made a new launch control for the supra, the supra would be the best sports car ever

Yes. It would definitely seem so. Lmaoooo.
Race starts at 2:59
Thanks 😂
Thx
Would’ve been nice if there was an NSX available too. All 3 “JDM” legends together for comparison.
Yeah... They kinda just left Honda hanging 😕
@ANIME ANGELIC STAR GT R is better
It would kinda be unfair to the Toyota Supra, as at the end of the day the Honda and Nissan are supercars (they also cost a lot too) and have a lot more power, whereas the Toyota is just a sports car.
@@jaideng721 NSX better bud.
there is a nsx but its to like supercarish
I appreciate the time you guys took to put this video together. Very well made, well done!
So lesson here is : if you let the supra win , it can win.
🤣🤣..
😂😂😂
Doesn't even make sense you can say about anything 🙄
@@TheTruelakersfan exactly 😂. That was my point bro
Another fun fact, if you try to lose in a gtr, you might lose
It feels like the GTR was just playing with its food at this point ...
it costs twice as much so i would hope so.
@@chriss6356 you either win or lose
@@thakewlmuzik2012 this wasn’t even a competition
Supra just yawned it is actually more brutal than you think🗿
Even the slow motion of the GT-R launch was faster than Supra's normal launch. :P :D
Shut up gtr better than supra
@UC7FjDfmV8ByRqfRuomQndLg thats what he said u dumb fuk
🥵🥵🥵🥵
A 50K supra on a 75k+ GTR(Depending year) I think both are awesome for the price bracket each belong
65k vs 120k
The overall design might be 14 years old but the GTR just looks timeless.. The supra looked kool when i first saw it but the GTR still gives mi the chills to this day
Nahh old supra is much better tho
Thanks bro well said
@@limwellz Stock looks like a sick dog
Same!!!! Every time I see a GTR it makes me so enormously happy
One of the ugliest cars on the roads. Sorry. Nowhere near as timeless as the RX-7 FD or MKIV.
Is a launch control button really that hard to make?
You should do a Supra vs 400Z when it comes out
That i wana see
The 400z has 400hp slightly more on it and looks way better even tho it has a Infiniti Q60 twin turbo engine
yea the gtr is too good
No longer called 400z its just nissan Z and it has 18hp more then supra but 18ft pounds of torque less
@@whitepeachasmr I dunno, the new Z looks so... Plain to me.
Man when I kept seeing them getting close. I can imagine paul walker in the supra saying " dude I almost had you back there " 😂
MAN RIP😬😭😞
" you almost had me" "you never had your car"
Paul was a GTR guy not a supra. Just movie supra guy for F&F
@@hermessrt2414 Dont forget the fast and furious 7 scene. Albeit that technically wasn't Paul Walker.
I can wait to see the new Z vs a90. It should be an interesting comparison.
Tuned, both will basically be supercars.
@@ZMCarsandMore it's too early to say.
i will go for the z.manual transmission baby!!!
@@pancho1071 z lost
You should have tried switching cars to see if it's just the drivers ... And also a rolling race to see which cars can perform without launching
The gtr is the faster car. Anyway.
The supra launched better but the gtr still wins. Thats when you have to accept the gtr is faster
that straight away is so short, it won't have enough space for rolling.
This is an amazing test for reals, but you gotta test it in the track. Corner speeds are just as important if not more than straight line speed. Especially considering how both their drivetrains perform, plus they're made for that type of racing.
Supra is a drivers car. Gtr is a track car. It’s also double the price. It’s a stupid comparison
@@AB-nv7bz Not really. The Supra is better in quite a bit more categories, it’s held down massively by the stupid BMW launch control.
@@mypheelz What categories?
@@mypheelz”stupid BMW launch control”, at least bmw has it. Toyota was too lazy to crest a better engine and just slapped on a bmw engine on it. Toyota needs to step up😂😂
A “U drag” race would really show the difference in a quick race.
10:00 No, they are not all-season tires. They are max performance summer tires.
That yellow bmw is such a great value and that B58 motor is insanely good/tunable.
I wanna see people rebadge the Supra with BMW badges. Would be kinda funny
@@UpperRobin29 haha agreed.
The gtr can do 2000hp on a stock long block
@@carghai9235 but the key word was "value". No doubt the gtr can make big numbers.
@@soccerslus yep gtr is dated
The description of these two cars launch control systems perfectly explains why they're typically so consistent with acceleration and drag times.
Saw Tommy and knew this was going to be a really shoddy review. From the comments, I am not wrong.
I like both cars, and will gladly take whichever, but what do I know, I haven't driven either. 🤷♂️
Supra is shit
@@cameronlotter1392 wait till the v8 all wheel drive, 1000 hp stock Supra comes out👍 Edit: I have to say that was an April fools joke I ran into. Rip😅
@@deafryan5985 that was a April fools joke.
@@cameronlotter1392 how so? I'd take it since its 50k less and I could throw 4-5k at it amd make the same or more hp than the gtr with ease.
@@deafryan5985 where did you hear this because this ain't what a Supra is?
Really wish they had each car get pro tuned and run them. Then down pipes and run them. Followed by a flex fuel kit running E85 and run them to compare what we all would do if we had them.
Yeah, as a GT-R owner you definitely got the launch control wrong. Suspension should be in comfort mode.
As another GTR owner I agree, definitely want it in comfort when launching. I can't count the number of times I see GTR launch videos where they put everything in R R R to launch.
As a 1990 vr4 owner i have no idea what any of these are. But i do know the smell of clutch 😂

New supra is still objectively better than the old ugly ass supra
The supra is better
@@sheldonallen9658 it’s not the gtr is way better
I agree, but you can get two Supras for the price of one GT-R. So, what if you did a Supra and had an extra $40,000 to modify it?
I agree ...the new fake BMW Supra👎
Supra competes with the Z, not the GT-R. Not even in the same league. GT-R is where NSX and 911 are at.
@Justen G I don’t know about that because the most expensive Nissan for sale costs a lot more than the most expensive BMW on today’s market. BMW doesn’t even have any cars that breaks the $200K mark yet. Not even the i8. •Nissan GT-R Nismo starts $210K •BMW M8 Competition starts $141K
@Justen G That’s because the Supra is new and the 370Z is 12 years old. The new 400Z with 400hp will blow the doors off of the 382hp Supra. A stock M5 can not beat a stock GT-R, not on a drag and never on a track. What’s BMW’s best Nürburgring time vs Nissan’s ring time? Didn’t think so.
@Justen G oh puhleeze, you’re just in denial. Any official sources shows the M5 is in the low 11s or high 10s while a Nismo GT-R is about 0.2s quicker. The old RB26 is a better block than the 2JZ and the new VQ is still better than the B58. BMW doesn’t even have a dedicated sports car platform, all are shared and derived from sedan/suv.
@Justen G bro, the 2 fastest cars in the drag world is between a GTR and Lamborghini, I don't see any Nazi mobiles.
@@lordmaster5522 Sorry, the RB block is not better than a 2jz block. The RN N1 isn't, nor is the GT500 RB block. I love nissans and still admit the 2jz is a better block. Check out motive video on YT, they measure a 2jz vs a RB30 vs a Barra. They also measure RB26 variants in a different vid.
The PSS on the Supras are a Summer tire, not all seasons. At least mine weren’t. However, I’ve daily’d mine on them for the past two years here in the Midwest, all year ‘round. 🤪
Wow so the Supra did 4.4 0-60 on that launch pretty dam good My TLX Type S did a 4.9 so with the Jb4 it will do the 4.4 as others are doing wow that is mind bogling to me. That AWD SH makes a huge difference.
A minor tune on the Supra would do! Those Germans know how to build an inline! 💪🏼
Perhaps some wider tyres too. The B58 is indeed a great engine, it's just the rear wheels struggle with traction sometimes.
I like the testing with different configuration and settings on each car to try and match the capabilities.
He didn’t use launch control on the Supra, You have to use it within 3 seconds once it’s engaged if not it will just cancel out and then you just do a burnout
3:00
5:10 I like how the the supra sqauts down when its ready to launch
She squats, she got 🍑🤪
@@Ultreras good one😂👌
Knew the Godzilla was going to win, but that Supra was still barely keeping up with the GTR. Even the GTR has AWD and about 200 HP more than the Supra. Respect for both cars! Both great cars IMO.
the best part of the gtr is that it has a true nissan engine vs the impostor.
GTR: I am the Japanese king LFA: Remember me?
GTR still crushes the LFA. LFA is 3.6 seconds to 60mph. Nismo GTR is factory 2.8. LFA sounds incredible though.
@@camcoles041 you can have 0-60, i’ll take the lex
@@camcoles041 at the time the lfa was faster and one will last the other wont
@@camcoles041 you act like 0-60 is a valid performance measurement.
That gtr is faster than LFA.. LFA sounds better tho. Thanks to Yamaha
Great comparison! I was shocked that the Supra’s was able to pull off one win!
Would love to see how they match up against the NSX.
Oooooooh ouch!
That's an easy win for the gtr r35
That would be a classic trio rivalry. 🤘🏻
@@Kingaxxed lol no, nsx will be a little bit faster. But the difference in price is substantial. Gap would be smaller if it’d be GTR Nismo, but still, NSX should be faster
Nsx would smoke both in a straight line unless ghe gtr is a nismo
Put them on a track and show lap times. Those race results actually matter.
I like how they use the road carck for start & finish line. lol
I'm surprised it was even that close. Then again I don't think you all went the entire quarter mile.
It’s not close, this is fake news.
That is for the show the gtr kill the supra by 20 car from factory
It’s more like a 1/10 of a mile not even 1/8 mile.
Looking at google maps you can see the start and finish lines by the lines on the road. They only went 366 feet.
@@nelsonbermudez7068 not even close my man! I’ve have yet to beaten by a gtr in my 2021 Supra! Kid don’t know how to drive it.

What surprised you the most?
Lol put some mods in it after. This thing will take on six figure super cars all day. Can’t wait to ecutek tune mine.
I would certainly hope it hauls ass for costing north of 55 grand and basically being the size of a go kart with a turbo 6....
530hp 4wd vs 330hp rwd in digs. How is this even a surprise? Lol
Nissan was way ahead it’s time with this car. 15 years later and it’s still faster than todays cars 🇯🇵
For 60k more, it should be faster lmao
No shit, Sherlock it's 120k 😂
Altitude hurts cars here man. Best 0 to 60 I was able to do with my gtr was 3.2.
I’ve owned both. Stock for stock the GT-R kills my 21 Supra. Modified is a different story. I upgraded my GT-R with an Alpha 7 package on full E-85 tuned by Devin at Boostin Performance and recently upgraded my Supra with an AMS catless downpipe, Boost Logic exhaust and a Visconti flex fuel kit tuned by Jacob at AMS. I feel like my Supra is just a bit faster.
Man have a nice time with the babies you own. You live the dream✌️
For you next video, can I suggest a match up between a C8 and GTR. That would be a much better match both power wise and price.
Advertisement of Keeps products suddenly appear and it understand my current problems right now😂
I want an Alpha Romeo 4C with an 312HP Tune, Cold Air Intake and Centerline exhaust. 0-60 in 4.2 seconds or less with launch control. 🤙🏼 After that, GTR all the way. Big fan of BMW though, a used Supra in 5 years would be a sweet daily driver if I don’t get a 99’ Honda Civic Si.
The GTR break checks at 3:15 ( I wonder if he let off the gas as well at launch)
No it's LED taillights acting like that in the camera, they always do that. They flicker
I only clicked this video to let you know it’s more than obvious that the GTR won. It’s literally twice the price, more power, AWD, and a dual clutch with launch control. I love your videos but this is not even a slightly close comparison. JS but I do love you guys keep up the good work.
For suspension for the GT-R put it in comfort and it will be slightly quicker because of weight transfer because the suspension gets softer
I love this channel! Although, a Supra does not compete with a GTR.
It did once. But this isnt a Supra anyway. Its a BMW.
@@cartrips9263 Your right, it did compete once. Now the GTR is a super car, kinda like the C8 corvette. My brother hates the fact that the Supra is just a BMW!
@@TheRaptorWranglerCreates since when the GTR is a super car ? Did I missed something ?
These cars are obviously in different classes, however I'm impressed how close it was most of the time. Definitely makes spending twice as much on the GTR a harder sale. Still would rather have the GTR, but realistically I'd most likely go for the Supra if I was in the market for these cars.
You mean your a supra kid lol
Gtr are better
i would take the supra as well but if had a true toyota engine and not that garbage engine.
Prices for gtr are absurb now, triple the price of a supra.

Hay which video camera you are using in this video please tell me 📷
GT-R's and Supra's are such great cars it isn't about performance that determines which is better, it's how cool they are that matters. And even then it's personal taste. I am a Skyline fanboy purely for it's design but I respect the the Supra lovers.
This should be the top comment ^
For being $100k difference, its pretty close. Good video and a $750 jb4 tune getting that 3.7 on supra is really good. Love my 2021 supra but gtr is a beast in every way

Comparing a 300hp rwd car with 3.0T to a 550hp awd car with 3.8TT makes no sense
My dad and I used to take our dirtbikes to IMI all the time
2021 Supras are Dyning at 380 to the wheel and 385 torque making the it a 450 HP car with almost 500 pounds of torque. The 2020 are about 35 HP less on the Dyno same Torque but more Tunable because the ECU is not locked and can make over 500 HP with just a few mods.

These are unfortunately completely different classes of cars (which you did at least mention). The GR Supra is more in line with Nissan's midrange sport car, the Z series, which is what it was directly competing with in the 90's as well. I'll be more excited to see the Supra and the new Z. I do have to admit though, the Supra did better than I expected.
Tbf, a tune, downpipe and maybe a new turbo would probably match or pull on the GTR. GTR's power is displaced over 4 wheels, while the supra only has two. The GTR has twin turbos, vs the twinscroll which is more of a parody of a twin turbo system. Not really an even match stock v stock, but the supra did well for what it is.
What did the original GTR come out to compete with?
600hp vs 380hp. The gtr is just dated and to heavy
1:53 Andre: Uh, ouch Me: And the Oscar does not go to... 😂😂😂
Bro wasn’t even trying at the start of the race😂
GtR is still king... waiting on next gen👊🏻
There is a major difference though, while one is still a full blown JDM car, the other is a half bmw hybrid
I honestly didn’t expect the Supra to do anything crazy but it is still pretty nice
I think we all knew how it was gunna pan out before the video started lol
You could see a 5:00 nothing came on the screen for launch control, he didn't turn it on.
many supra deities here are concerned with brand quality compared to engines, there are 2 cars where the 2 cars are factory standard, it is proven that GTR wins in terms of engine
GTR is an unbelievable car but super overpriced new. The Supra 6 cyl offers amazing styling and performance for the money.

Honestly as much as a hate the Supra from a mechanical stand point, for half the price of a new gtr the supra surprisingly keeps up
I don't think it's fair to call the current generation Supra JDM at all. The Nissan wins subjectively because it's a pure JDM product imported to various other world markets.
I regret selling my 1993 rz supra for 11k
Supra is worth half of the price. It kept up great. Supra with intake catless DP and tune will smoke that thing
Ah yes, only the Supra is allowed to have mods. As we know Nissan GTRs can't be modded or anything, right? The Supra only had a chance when the GTR had an easy start with no launch control. Otherwise it got killed. That's not keeping up to me..
That same engine in the Supra is suppressed big time. While in the BMW X3 M Competition is pushing 500 HP
Yeah and pretty unreliable in it.
