36: The Car That Killed Godzilla
#Supra #JGTC #Racing
As the battle worn #36 Toyota Supra skidded across the finish line,
It breathed its last breath to give Toyota what they had been wishing for, for decades, a trophy that said they had finally defeated Nissan.
This is the story of how a decades old rivalry culminated during Japan's golden era of touring car racing. A tale of revenge, of betrayal, and most importantly, of door to door racing.
This is the story of the Castrol Tom's Supra, the dominance of the Nissan GT-R, and the origins of the JGTC itself.
This is THE SQUIDD, a channel devoted to telling boring stories BOLDLY. Automotive icons, car company calamities, supercar legends and underdog heroes. All told through the lens of The Squidd, automotive content creator famous for being a dude with bad hair.

chads always rock toyotas and win

Hey dude. Why are you dissing Elon like that at 11:23 ??? 2 things Elon is not, is lazy and uninspired. Just sayin’.
The bigger question is: Why are you online defending the worlds richest man, who likely has done very little for you?
Why are they still struggling, team up with Honda in 2025
Great docu. The music is too loud.
I still want this car. Such a masterpiece
thumbs added
It's Lamborghini's Best mistake!
Thank you for making and uploading these high quality videos. love and support from Korea.
He called straßenversion straBen😭😭😭
Why diss Ron Dennis so much 😢
no way it's been this long... bro just make another story bruh😭 jk, but fr tho you should make another video I know it will be fire🔥
No Porsche until 8:00 . Click Bait
The only thing worse than death is making all your once cool cars into boring SUVs
😂 what's a Sellica😂 Neesan was terrible, but Sellica killed me 😂 Disrespectful American
This was phenomenal.
Waste of time. Just buy a Volkswagen it started everything putting a bigger engine into a small car in 1976.
I would still pick a Porsche over any of that Japanese garbage.
So many people admired the Ferrari F40 at that time but I was always into the Porque 959
This car didn't have rules, just very strict guidelines
They should call it "Destoroyah" Since he's like the ONLY kaiju that managed to kill Godzilla
Looks like an R36 isn’t gonna happen unfortunately. I hope to God I’m wrong
Re watching your old videos, anxiously awaiting your next ..cheers
appreciate you friend, sorry im taking a bit of a mental break the last few months but i'll get back to making stuff soon!
If u hv NOKIA AK-47 and HILUX you hv already won the war before it begins.
45 mins of Nissan being the best 😅
JGTC was special, SUPER GT is incredible. Japan, keep being you, don't tell others how to be.
you are probably one of the best car youtubers
greatly appreciated!
It’s not strabenversion it’s strassenversion that’s a sharp s not a b
Great comments 🎉
Mitsubishi don't make cars because is expensive risky business. They make the best machines and instruments for heavy industries.
The very best of brtish

It was intended to not have power steering for a pure driving experience
One guy I worked for had a 911 turbo...not something I'd want to own or even drive but holy fuck it's an impressive car.
I worked for guys with Maclaren's, Ferrari's and Lamborghini's...the Porsche was still nice.
300k is the number most cited as the BUILDING cost and the sold all em quickly at 100k. Having that come along after it happened only attests to Porsches flair for the mysterious. They simply were flexing their muscles and after hibernating a few years in R and D bliss …came back with this idea. The goal was to level the rest of the competitors before someone moved. The F40 came rt after so Porsche must have known they were close. But what came standard in the 959 was something NOBODY even hinted at developing (for the time) other than even close. It wasn’t about MONEY AT ALL. They just wanted to make it clear to everyone who still was the boss and most feared of them all. Period

More videos. Subaru next?
definitely on the list since I bought an STi myself!
But it's not a Supercar. Any modern Honda Civic is faster. And it also doesn't sound like a Supercar. The Ford GT is a Supercar.
Can you do a video on the history of the barra engine and ford falcon
Non sense talk! In 2021 at the Nurburgring some real Supercars enthusiasts told a LFA owner off the entrance and the Car! As the fellow was handed over a certified check for $2.6M USD for the LFA. On that same year, 2021 it was. Orders received by loyal customers of Toyota, Dodge and Ford Toyota 2 JF Cruisers 2 LFA Dodge 2 Vipers and 1 Prouler Oh GM 1 ZR1 Ford 5 Tauruses, NO idea if were for the SHO Yamaha engine? But of course! Think about it! All these cars makers must have millions of parts on their warehouses! Coaching $$$$$$$ And the last used LFA purchase in North West Europe I readed that it was a cool money making income of $6M. SO, NOW! If can place an order to a car makers companies 🤔 Why should you have to buy an used car for over the top value?
I have a 2001 Viper GTS. The fear driving it is exhilarating. Like you mentioned, if you don't heed that fear, respect it, the car will bite you.
lucky!
Man i miss those late nights playing gran turismo 2 on the ps2 so many legendary cars and the turbo/bov sounds were so fucking cool.
Yo squid when u gonna post bro this is fire 🔥
taking a bit of a break but getting back to it soon!
Gtr is the beesttttttttttttttt
Had to be Pagani or Koenigsegg for me..absolutely timeless design!! The one Zonda that stood out to me as one of the best was the Purple 760LH Lewis Hamilton owned. Unfortunately smashed up but hopefully someone rebuilt it.
