Castrol or Denso

[supra229]

What is the difference between the Toyota Castrol Tom's Supra and the Toyota Denso Sard Supra? and which do you prefer?

 

[Klonie Gun]

Since both Supras have about the same horsepower, for more power, the Denso version is what I pick. Otherwise, for handling, the Castrol Tom's is a better choice.

I think both of them are good...but the Denso has better looks..

 

[DensOSARDsupra]

I think the denso is better in looks, HP, and I use the denso 4 almost all of my endurance races because u can put T2 racing slicks on it and still kicks all other JGTC cars without having to change ur tires as much as them.

 

[supra229]

Thanks I'll try to win the Denso Sard Supra and see if it is as good as you say!

 

[ReconUK]

i thought this a while ago but look at the specs for both cars, theyre identical, the only difference is the look of the car, no difference in weight or HP...

I like the colors on the Castrol supra, and it seems to handle better.

It would seem logical that there would be some differences in the driving characteristics of the two cars since they are from different tuners. But I have played a lot of head to head with them and from my own experience they do seem identical. This goes for horsepower and their handling.

They are both equally good, I mean, you won't regret getting one of the 2.

I love the Denso

 

[Auto___1]

where do u win the denso?

 

[Klonie Gun]

You win the Denso Sard Supra in the Amateur All Stars JGTC Championship. You got that?

 

[CarAlot]

but it's weird how both of the Supras have the same rims just different colours...and the thing in the middle is blue on one side and red on the other...

Yes,. it would seem logical that they would be different,.. but,. lemme assure you,. they are the same,.. just as the NSX race cars are all the same

I prefer the Castrol, 'cause I think it looks nicer!

 

[Claustrophobic]

If you are playing the simulation game as normal without major moneybuilding, I would say that your best bet is the denso. The Denso supra can be won quite early into the game in amateur, wheras the castrol can either be bought at an extortianate price or won later in the game in professional where it is rather useless.

I would go for the Denso becasue it is probably the quickest FR car in the game. But I haven't really driven the castrol supra enough to compare.

I don't agree with you on that one

Somehow i'm a bit faster in my raybridge NSX than in the 2 other NSX powerhouses. This could all be mental but i'm convinced that there are differences for the NSX cars... (even tho mine are all fully tuned and have been treated identically, also is a hp difference)

This test was performed by the most elite driver the complex string has ever seen:

JBS at GT3times
Arta - 3'35.781
Raybrig - 3'35'852
Mugen - 3'35'882

Proves just how equal these cars are and how consistent I am at driving them at Complex.

I'll upload all 3 replays sometime today.

Only .101 separates the Arta from the Mugen, and the Raybrig's right in between. All cars had the same setup. They truly are the same car with a different paint scheme.

I can probably better the times by 2 seconds atleast. I just wanted to prove a point at my consistency.

(or it could still be a coincidence ) Maybe a more esthetically pleasing car actually 'seems' faster?! Hehe

[Red Eye Racer]

Yup,...... and I like the Raybrig the best too

Good luck racing

Denso.

 

[coolkid]

The denso sard looks better but the castrol does have better handling so i'd have to go with the castrol

 

[smg]

Both are equal.

 

[Mugen]

DENSO.
