Yeah, I thought Nissan would've had a say, but than again.... FF is the only modified car movie out there. Why wouldn't they jump into free advertising? Of course if the director for FF was like "This R32 will break down and this R33 will lose to this Honda and the R34 will JUST beat a Supra" it could be bad marketing.

Well, apparently R34's are illegal in the states due to some "safety" issue? Didn't pass it in the states, I dunno, that's what I keep reading on youtube comments. But the fact they use an R34 in FF2 kinda defeats the purpose of not "using one", the fact they used it for a scene, one would only assume why not use it for the rest of the movie? Also, the R35 GTR was seen at the VERY end of FF5 - why not use it during FF5? Sure, if the R35 GTR loss to a car, a debate could be had given it's performance but.. yeah.. I just don't understand why they wouldn't use them.

they didnt use the r35 for 1 reason and i know what it is lol...

It was the FIRST 35 ever sold. the owner said they could use it IF he drove it, parked it and they couldn't touch it. the owner drove it, parked it. It sat there for the scene and then he drove home haha

But what is weird about FF is when they screened FF4 and then FF5 with the WRX hatch in FF4 and saying that it was the in between movie for FF2-FFTD the time span of the movie (when the story happened) was actually before the WRX hatch came out so was a little confused with that.

They didn't bother with Skylines because the whole domestic vs import scene is about ricified Hondas and stuff, well at least when the first one came out. They probably wanted to appeal to the kids who actually drive those cars, rather than some "dream" car that doesn't exist on the streets ever there.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
