i rate it 3 out of 10. the first one was far better imo. nice cars. nice girls. the driving was about as far from realistic as you can get and the plot was thin at best.

still recommend it tho :thumbsup: lots of top secret/veilside/signal etc etc cars. poor showing of skylines and like jayce said - no amount of nos in that ts rx-7 would allow them to catch that r34 gtr that flew past them. *grumble*

still it was good to see you boys and girls! its been like 6months since i've activley sau'd! :ermm:

d

i didnt like it.

The BAD was: acting was poor, story line = there was none / lame , unrealistic drifting (especially down the mountain at night) , lack of Skylines shown, Too many 350Zs !!!!

The GOOD was: The cars that were shown were crisp.

Rate it 2.5 / 10

Rate first F & F 9 / 10

Rate second F & F 7 / 10

just my 2cents..

Rate FnF3 - A good movie.

Yank actor - didn't like the texas drawl (dribble).

Plot was good acting was ok.

Car scenes, mainly good.

Asian chicks :rofl: mighty fine.

Music Trax - needs to be better and LOUDER. You'd of thought "LiL Pup" wouldve been able to get some decent tunes in the movie!

Good to see the whole row+ filled with SAU.

Sorry couldn't stay to chat afters. Had to get son home to eX's and also keen on seeing the 2hrs of Family guy and American Dad.

All up a good movie. Id love to see the first two guys (Paul Walker n Vin) do each FnF sequel but it didn't work that way.

hahah, that was awesome, we had the whole center row of the cinema from end to end! (not the 3 seats against the walls on each side, they don't count :(

loved it, much more than the 1st two, although FnF1 will always be good.

loved everything bout the movie. finally in Japan, and had nothing to do with police undercover which was great, girls were great, beats were japanese as they should be in japan (i thought Teriyaki Boyz did a good job with the theme song), and there was japanese spoken, i thought the movie would be "yank-efied"

10/10, awesome.

tokyo drift was a brilant film. and exsacly every thing i whanted it to be. as i am a film student i look out for the codes and conventions of cinima. and this was by no means your tipical holywood film. the film is filed with asian influance. the opening scence and many of the camera angles throughout the film are definetly asian influance. most of the music throughout the film is asian aswell. what i whantd to see was a cross between the initial-d live film and the fast and the furious. and it was just that.

for those of you who say the drifting was unrealistic, lern how to drift. most of the drift coriography was wacthed over by Keichi Tsuchiya "the drift king" who even makes a small aperance in the film (the guy sitting by the peir with the blue jaket making coments on the drifting)

after waching the first two films again, the day before seeing tokyo drift. the acting particularly in the first film is terable. the third fims acting perfomances leave the first two for dead.

as for story line there is one, with an important message. one the people you chose to hang around determan the type of person you wish to be. and second. dont just street race for the sake of racing. if your going to race do it for somthingimportant.

so overall, i think it was an excelent film, ive all ready seen it 3 times and i plan to see it again.

Well,it's Sunday eve',and I'm still thinking about seeing the movie with most of SAU ACT on Thursday night. I reckon it was a top movie;OK,so some things weren't perfect,but I thought it worked well for the majority! My highlights were more general:seeing a heap of SAU'ers in one spot-more than I've seen in a long time,thankfully-laughing and getting along,faces I haven't seen for a while,new faces(Frink had a particularly notable one with him,and it wasn't his bro'!),nice cars filing into the carpark outside,as Bluprint has said a full row of Skyline nuts and nutettes,the "oohs' and 'ahhs' of fast cars and drifting,the well spotted appearance of the real Drift King in the movie(well picked, M!) and many more things...

Thanks to those who made the effort to come out on a particularly freezing night(mmm....more boost)-good to see y'all!

HERE HERE :D

That was the worst movie I've seen in some time. It had some good bits, the drifting and girls were sweet. I really liked the mountian run and the shots in the city. Great work.

But the issue for me lay in the plot. Who throws the keys the their hot ride to some dude who they have never met before so they can have a go at drifiting??????

That aside, there were too many story shots, and not enough driving. I didn't think the acting was that great either, but it sure beat the last two.

But yeah, I'll wait for the DVD before I take a look again.

I am excitied that it'll help lift the profile of drifting .

Hey Viper, I don't think that street racing ever is a great idea, even if you think whatever its about is important.

    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
    • Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
