lol what a response

i forgot to put ferrari/porsche in the poll options

i hope they dont make a ferrari or porsche the main car, i doubt they will tho

i watched an interview with paul walker that showed his training for 2f2f, the bastard got to thrash a brand new R34 GTR Vspec around a track for weeks, and then did it with an EVO and some other cars. Bastard. He even got to do stunts in the 34.

:kick:

I agree with some of the posts, i think there will be the RX8 and 350z in it.

Im hoping they give the GTR a proper scene, not some bullshit jump over a 100ft high bridge shit then crash it and no more GTR for the rest of the movie.

There mite be the new Eclipse in it, as the Fast and furious team seam to love the Eclipse for some reason.

Up to this point im still struggling to figure out what the plot of the movie will be.

Hopefully its around performance parts, tuning, racing and the culture of it.

And not another shit one where the cars are 3rd hand to the actors and the 'drug' son of rajab plot of 2f2f.

Not to mention,

WHAT THE HELL ARE THEY GOING TO CALL IT

3fast3furious? they couldnt possibly be that stupid and uncreative

what's wrong with the fast and the furious! it helps break down the walls of sterotypes predjous aginst modded car owners (the cars being modded, not the owners) it's all like it really is. just last week the cops from helicopters shot one of those bloody EMP things into the side of my Volvo 240 GL, the bastards took out the indicatiors and the radio.

nah in all seriousness.............the car that will feature is the one who's company pays the most into the production costs..............product placement. think the relationship between BMW and James Bond................hey that would be a good one........."pay attention 007 this is your new GTR V-spec, usual features, twin turbo, rocket launchers, twin machineguns blah blah blah"

Im hoping they give the GTR a proper scene, not some bullshit jump over a 100ft high bridge shit then crash it and no more GTR for the rest of the movie.

Get your facts right, the GT-R got EMP'd and crashed, the Supra went 100ft in the air and crashed.

    • This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?
    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit.

    • Try fabricating something like this and install it under the pedals? Not sure if it's legal or not....
    • Even though I have some pretty good (brand) ratchet ringies, I avoid using them to break open tight bolts. A broken ratchet is very annoying.
