Regarding what car was just used in 2F2F, it was a R34 GTT with GTR bodykit. The behind the scenes docos confirm this as. A real GTR may have been used for stationary shots etc, but Paul Walker's character definitely drove a GTT without question,

Hey Kevin, the link you have posted is to a thread about the 4th film 'Fast and Furious' ,hence the thread title. Furthermore it reiterates this in the article: "This R34 started its life as a GTT rear wheel drive platform and was then recruited to become a stunt double for the hero car for the Fast and Furious 4 movie".

Several people on Gtroc have been told directly by Andy Middlehurst that two UKDM BNR34s were purchased by the producers of 2 Fast 2 Furious for the the film.

In the Fourth film i know Gtts were used as stunt cars ( as R34 Gtrs are nearly impossible to get in the US, and as such are too valuable to be smashed up), however, the original Hero car was in fact a Genuine r34gtr (albeit a 'Kaizo' car) and in the second film 2F2F , which is the topic of discussion, the Hero car was again a Genuine R34gtr. I would not be at all surprised if Gtts were also used as stunt cars for this film, however,for all intents and purposes the car was meant to be/ is a gtr, so what replica they used for stunts or scenes where the car gets damaged is irrelevant

Cheers

Hey Kyle,

I get it mate,

Almost everyone gets the inclination for decals on their Skyline at some point.

I little while ago I got quotes for a Monster claw across my bonnet, for $1000 and seriously considered it and still am.

I like my music and might start a website soon streaming funk so see my skirts.

Anyway, decals are an opportunity for uniqueness, so go for it.

it was meant to be a 34R however as they had to trash a whole bunch of them they just used GT / GTT's and pretended except for 1 car

someone posted a pic of all the mangled cars on here aaaaages ago

also, who gives a shit? it was a terrible movie anyway

Stop stirring people on with your obvious and do liberate stupidity.

If you're so obsessed and determined with getting those original F&F decals then why have you not posted any pictures yet?

You're just a troller. Pathetic.

Mate are you kidding? I posted the photo like last week, read the comments, idk why it was removed from my post.

Hi Kyle, I respect the fact you went ahead with what you wanted to do on your car regardless of what people say. I like that. Each to their own. As long as you like it, who care what people say.

Cheers

Thankyou, appreciate it.

I was parked in a car park the other day and a guy was driving out and he actually stopped his car in the middle of the car park and got out to take a photo.

Mechanic? Cut the springs to sit it on it's rims. Done in an hour.

cutting springs never works out, they dont sit right and shit just starts to happen to the ride, had someone do it on a golf before and when you went full lock it started to click

Just saying. Cheap option and works well if you take one coil out and make sure it lines up properly. Did it to a few of my cars, no issues. Sometimes needed to clamp the spring on the strut to stop it moving around.

    • Welcome!  How long have you had it? And what colour is it?
    • "CAD" version 1.0 It will have a 15mm lip around the top for 6 × 5 or 6mm nutserts and fixtures (two on each of the three straight edges), and some pinch weld on any exposed edges, it has three mounting points, one of the power steering reservoir bolts, and two on the rad support, my 120mm hole saw will make short work of hole for the silicone joiner, with ample room for some pinch weld  I've also got enough Carbuilders "peel and stick" heat shield to cover the outside of it at the coolant expansion tank and on the engine side, as pictured, and internally on the lid and where the fuse box is, I've also got some thin, about 3mm, black 3M single sided sticky foam stuff that was left over after sealing some door drafts at home to help seal the lid As for the shape, it "sort of" matches the shape of the fuse box, so shouldn't look to "out of place" The lower area and hole for the intake will need pinch weld with a balloon on it to fully seal the hole and bottom of it, that will happen after it has been fabricated so I know exactly what size is required  Filter service has been trialed,  and so far it was a simple process  Just need to get some alloy, and then head into work to use the guillotine and break press in the workshop Hopefully it should be sorted in a week or two Guestimated outlay will be under a $50 for the stuff I don't have on hand (alloy, 6mm nutserts, the pinch weld, and wrinkle paint) Disclaimer: That's what the "voices in my head" are telling me how the filter box should end up getting done......lets see if they know what they are talking about  
    • Have been polishing up the trailer rims as they had been sitting in the shed for a few years and are really in need of some love. This was after a couple of passes with chrome polish - coming up quite well ✅ .
    • Welcome aboard! Is your Skyline auto or manual? I'm assuming manual. Does it have any mods done yet?
    • Hey mate, the brown and grey plugs would usually go to the TPS, brown one goes on the bottom connector and grey is the top but isn't used unless the car is auto, your TPS looks different to mine though I've got a series 2 engine.
