The 1998 Toyota Supra Turbo (A80) is a coupe sports car manufactured by Toyota for export markets outside of Japan, and is the final model year sold in North America.

The A80 generation is significantly lighter than the previous A70 generation, employing the use of aluminium for the bonnet, and some suspension components, as well as a plastic fuel tank cover and a magnesium steering wheel.

Its twin-turbocharged 2JZ-GTE engine uses a sequential induction system, having exhaust gasses pass through the turbine of one turbo as low as 1,800 rpm before spooling the second turbo around 4,000 rpm and having both operate in parallel above 4,500 rpm, effectively reducing lag introduced by both turbochargers but also allowing both to maximise air input at higher rpm.

Going on sale in May 1993 as the fourth generation (A80) Supra, it was only fitted with a 3.0-litre inline-six but was offered as either naturally aspirated (2JZ-GE) or twin-turbocharged (2JZ-GTE), and was available with a hard top or a removeable targa top referred to as the "Aerotop".

In the Japanese domestic market, it was sold from May 1993 to July 2002 with a twin-turbo induction for "GZ", "RZ", or "RZ-S" trims and without for the "SZ" or "SZ-R" trims, with revisions introduced in May 1996 creating a differentiation between "Series 1" and "Series 2" models, being only fitted to the final two model years in the North American market until August 1999.

Stub - This article section needs expanding with relevant information.

Need for Speed: World

The Supra was made available in Need for Speed: World on September 28, 2010 as a tier 2 car. Since August 22, 2012, it has been featured as a C class car.

Compared to the fastest tier 2 vehicles, the Supra reached a notably lower top speed. The large turn radius and high weight prevented it from entering and exiting corners quickly. As part of an April 3, 2012 update, the Supra received a higher top speed of 180 mph (258 km/h) and a smaller turn radius, with the result of noticeably improved handling.

The best trait of the Supra is acceleration, which is among the best in Class C - similarly to the Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec. However, this comes at the expense of handling. Despite having a reworked steering, the Supra still relies on brakes under high-speed cornering, which is unproblematic with nimbler cars. Nevertheless, it is more responsive than most former tier 2 cars including the Skyline GT-R. Its nitrous boost gave a moderate boost in speed.

The Supra is best used in race tracks allowing the full use of acceleration. It is less effective in technical tracks when put against better handling cars. Its weight can be useful in pursuit events.
