Whats yours?

OK I don't mind on this thread, 4 you to answer a Q with a Q

Until Ronin came along, I was a bit of a Steve McQueen fan I guess... I'll let someone else nominate that movie or some other...

Yes it's RONIN

And I like the part when the M5 is burning thru the F-way tunnel and De Niro's car has to get past the revolving upside-down cop car. Took my breath away that!

I bought Ronin on dvd from a hock shop years ago. But when I saw another one with 'Special Effects' on how Ronin was made, I had to get that one too. It was quite remarkable how they made some sequences.

So if anyone wants my first one for free PM me.

Cheers, T

Am amazed at what you guys can source !

Who needs google?

Just have to ask the right Qs here on SAU!

Im actually watching Ronin on youtube now :)

Also found this one, from some German TV show

R U in training to become a stunt driver?

Me? Just came back an hour ago - a double run near your place - Old Pac - a buzz

Bullit with Steve mcqueen was a classic car chase.. The noise and the torque of those Yank muscle cars brings goose bumps. Blues brothers also has a another awesome car chase... Hell most of the movie is.. But the best has gotta be mad max

Tokyo Drift without a doubt is my fave I thought Han drifting around the R33 chicks was cool. Although excessively corny Cannonball Run II was good for the 80's too especially the howling Countache opening part. Okay I obviously have to see Ronin I somehow missed that one :bunny:

Tokyo Drift where the 350Z drifts in the car park up the circular ramp all the way to the top.

2F2F where the GTR, RX7, Supra and S2000 are all in a race.

Cannonball Run / Fever, later know as Speed Zone, which had John Candy in it and the Red Lamborghini Countach, which skims across the lake.

Gone in 60 Seconds was a fun to watch

    • I haven’t taken them out of the cases yet    inside the box is this packaging which is pretty much like a massive blister pack 
    • Purchased a NC MX5 a while ago Basic suspension mods done, BC coils and Whiteline sway bars  New DBA calipers, discs and pads Added some 17 x 8 Konig Decagrams with 215/45 17 PS5's Added some typical NA bolt on's, i.e. full exhaust and intake  Added 0.5ltrs with a MZR2.5 swap, nice bump in torques  Found a detachable hard top which is locked in for a colour match with my local paint shop in Feb 25, this also includes some PDR as it has received a few love taps from parking in the local shops when in the hands of my Minister for War and Finances, me, I park nowhere near other cars and typically park on the street The little thing is awesome, I drive it everywhere, it handles like a dream whether I'm up it or just cruising  But now,  because I'm a idiot, I keep looking at turbo kits....... did I mention I'm a idiot Why is dose so appealing  All of the NA 2.5 glory, well.......until sometime in 2025 anyway....🤪  
    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
