Just one more little gripe I have about the first film.

I also found it peculiar that the director thinks that the underside of a Mitsubishi Eclipse features a 1' x 1' square of diamond-plate steel.

That conveniently sheared off all its bolts when the MANIFOLD started to overheat.

So the heat from an overly-stressed manifold, as indicated by the Atari-style graphics on the laptop shouting "WARNING! DANGER TO MANIFOLD!", is enough to melt the dozen-or-so bolts holding a diamond-plate panel onto the bottom of a car, which is almost in the middle of the underbody.

Cheers Hollywood, your sense of logic is charming but... bleh.

Editors Cut!!!

The cars of the 5th Fast and the Furious should have:

Yanks love their Zeds, so probably put a in 370Z (Powerhouse Amuse) it actually looks wicked...

well the eclipse is fwd, so maybe all that torque pulling on the engine mounts was enough to pop the rivets holding it in, lol.

as for the EMP killing the ecu from the door, i'd believe it. doesn't have to kill the ecu itself, only has to kill the battery and coils, or even just a heap of relays, and since the engine and the battery are earthed to the body, hitting any metal panel will do really.

lol apparently the 34gtr in the last movie was just a 34gtt with a full gtr kit on it...

there was s tory about the theives who broke in to steal it -

They usualy have 3 or 4 stunt cars with one hero car. But there was a shot in the movie of a close up of the dash and it was a gt dash that only went up to '180' *i think*. dont the gtr dashes go up to 300 or is that the nismo dash.

That would be the Nismo dash or The V-Spec II N1 (I think) / V-Spec II Nur / M-Spec Nur dash (definitely 300 Km/h)

2F2f would have just used a stock base model / V-Spec / V-Spec II with the 180 Km/h dash.

Continuing on from my original India F&F 5 idea, I expand on:

The movie needs to feature some of these MAD things.

0 - 100 takes 20 seconds... MAD! :P

Then Vin Diesel can say "I live my life 1/4 mile at a time, in those 120 seconds, I'm free."

Stick with the 1st donkey drag races, then tatas, then Paul Walker & Vin Diesel will go their separate ways in choosing & modding their cars:

Paul Walker will stick to his usual turbo route & end up buying a white 2002 model Toyota Camry from a local tax accountant & then chuck a T51R turbo on it, while Vin diesel will go with his usual muscle V8 route & get one of these bad boys: Resized%20DSCK0970.jpg and drop a LS7 in it.

sure it wasnt in MPH, it is america remember...

yar it was in KPH, i R34's in 2f2f and the 5th fast and furious were right hand drive anyway. and in the 5th one i dont see why theyd rip out the mfd (if it was a gtr) in order to put a fancy screen the size of my computer monitor.

It would have been a JDM Import and I do remember the speedo in Km/h.

LOL!

That fancy screen was rubbish, stock GTR MFD is good as it is.

your taking it wayyyyyyyyyy to seriously man

what really counts is for that 10seconds or less .... your free :P

i guess someone owes them a 10 second car.

Back to the thread they need an r35. (Speaking of which didnt paul walker pretty much choose one in the 5th when he was picking his car , he picks a white r34 a red 35 and the blue34 and says "i want em all" and then doesn't use the r35.) something well known like mines or zele. wasnt their a japanese movie with the top secret gtr in it?

    • 2 spots that my exhaust guy joined the 2 pipes together  Made a big difference. I'm now able to live with it. I can make it louder if I want by removing the HKS caps.
    • Hi all, considering clutch upgrade to support 1130 engine hp from 1650cc injectors on e50 at 85% duty cycle (1650 x (11.85/14.7) x 85%). Narrows down to these three as they can be converted to use gm 26 spline input shaft if I ever want to use transmission with that input shaft (orc1000f and r3c easy/cheap just change center hub; tr2cd pricier must change clutch discs). Pricing orc1000f similar to tr2cd, r3c about usd 200 pricier. Orc1000f triple plate 200mm. Tr2cd twin plate 215mm. R3c triple plate 215mm. Claimed max torque : orc 1000f 723 lbs ft; tr2cd 800 lbs ft; r3c 1100 lbs ft. Why orc1000f triple plate but claims lower max torque vs tr2cd twins? Is orc1000f underrated? Any info maxing out these clutches? Info on street/traffic driveability/pedal feel? Thank you for any info on them.
    • Some troubleshooting, connect up a timing light/gun with a proper ignition lead on coil 1. Hold the revs at 4~4500rpm and see if your timing is all over the shop, scattering off its tits. If so, there's a high chance your CAS is fked. But I read you have a Link ECU ready to go in, why not just skip all this and put that in - will make troubleshooting so much easier.  
    • Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.
    • Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.
