I mean when is he EVER going to need that big a wing to keep it on the ground?

No my statementy against the ricers is going to be my stock Camaro with modified exhaust. That will be more then enough to shame them.
FYI...that 1 1/2 foot spoiler is factory.
It produces 80lbs of downforce at 100MPH...and close to 200lbs at 150+MPH.

I'd say that's pretty functional.

If the car in your pic has a foot and a half spoiler; you have little feet. I think he was refering to feet, as in the measurement, That can not be 18 inches on that spoiler...

Yeah, chadrcr is right. The wing on your supra isnt 18 inches. If that is your in the pic, then I'd say about 6-7 inches tall. 18 is about the equivilent of a 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner Superbird. I could be wrong, but i might not be, im not sure.

I REALLY like the Toyota Supra (to me one of the best imports), I always have. It's a great looking car, and fast as a bat out of hell. I hope that if (when) they bring it back, it keeps that rep, and gives our 5th Gen Camaro fight like it did for the 4th Gen.

Really liked the Supra from the 80s

In 03, I had a friend with a Mistubitchi EVO, stock, it hauled @$$, of course I was driving it on a winding hilly road outside Fort Worth. The all wheel drive made it corner like a 8!+(# .... I still preferred my 02 Z/28 to his. Something about being able to haul before doing 6000 rpms+

I'm not in the garage right now, I'm at work...and although I've never actually taken a ruler to it, I've washed it enough times to know it's more than 6 inches...I'd say it's more like 9 or 10 inches.
Maybe a foot.



But definitely not a foot and a half....my bad.

You KNOW how us "ricers" like to exaggerate eveything....lke how those stickers get us 10 extra hp, when everybody knows it's only 5.

i think we should set something straight here. supra's,skylines, rx7's, 350z, and other veichals in this class are not ricers, these are imports, as these cars got balls, they aint 4bangers with no go their imports that actully mean buisness

btw ricerocket loven ur supra dude, def wish i could afford one, its simply toyota's nice car ever built.

i think you mean Z's in general because when the first 300zx(1984) came out it competed with the Corvette of its time and the 1990+ 300zxTT is faster than the 350z...
im done for letting me rant for a min.(i gotta stand of for my car just like i stand up for the Camaro on Z boards)

My bad, your signature pic makes it look shorter. From the the pic you posted, about 10 inches to a foot looks about right. And might I add, your Supra looks BAD@$$!!!!!
