Well well well, I can here the "cha ching" of the cash register from here....looks like Universal have figured a way to sqeeze more money out of Vin and the gang. Considering this movie has nothing at all to do with the last two, nor does it have any cast from the previous two I'd say it's a fair bet it will....SUCK BALLS! About the only good thing I saw in the trailer were the women and the well known Signal R34. Does look like the write off a few of them though! More ricey rockets with Motec exhaust systems and floor pans that drop out when you nawwwwwsss too much.....I can't wait....no really...

Plot - From the producer of the worldwide blockbuster hits "The Fast and the Furious" and its sequel, "2 Fast 2 Furious," comes the latest installment of the adrenaline-inducing series built on speed-"The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift". Set in the sexy and colorful underground world of Japanese drift racing, the newest and fastest customized rides go head-to-head on some of the most perilous courses in the world.

Sean Boswell (Black) is an outsider who attempts to define himself as a hot-headed, underdog street racer. Although racing provides a temporary escape from an unhappy home and the superficial world around him, it has also made Sean unpopular with the local authorities. To avoid jail time, Sean is sent to live with his gruff, estranged father, a career military-man stationed in Tokyo.

Now officially a gaijin (outsider), Sean feels even more shut out in a land of foreign customs and codes of honor. But it doesn't take long for him to find some action when a fellow American buddy, Twinkie (Bow Wow), introduces him to the underground world of drift racing. Sean's simple drag racing gets replaced by a rubber-burning, automotive art form-with an exhilarating balance of speeding and gliding through a heart-stopping course of hairpin turns and switchbacks.

On his first time out drifting, Sean unknowingly takes on D.K., the "Drift King," a local champ with ties to the Japanese crime machine Yakuza. Sean's loss comes at a high price tag when he's forced to work off the debt under the thumb of ex-pat, Han (Kang). Han soon welcomes Sean into this family of misfits and introduces him to the real principles of drifting. But when Sean falls for D.K.'s girlfriend, Neela (newcomer Kelley), an explosive series of events is set into motion, climaxing with an ultimate high stakes face off.

Adz rating 1.5\10.....and I havn't even seen it! :ban:

lil bow wow.. hahaha

From DEM FRANCHIZE BOYZ: I think they like me (feat bow wow)

[bow Wow:]

"Im bow weezy prince of the o-town

Just got the wheels clean so im riding slow now

Im in a fast car something like a nascar

If you wanna know how much it cost you should ask pa"

lol

PS so whens the NissanSilvia movie meet? :ban:

if thats the case then why dont you ask these nice people to back off the line so you can go home...

all jokes aside, who here has NOT seen number 1 or 2....as weak and cheesy as they are, people watch them and they make squillions. this 1 will be even lamer than the first 2 by the look of it, but it'll be just as successful I think...and the majority of people on SAU will watch it :ban:

Hello Victorians,

I'm treading carefully on these grounds haha.

I would go see just for the cars. The plot seems a little "hollywood".

Can you imagine the hooning that would follow the movie in the car parks? I remember when F&F came out, it was boosting galore here in Brisbane.

yeah but anyone can blame movies and video games for wankers thinking there in it.

like omg lets ban violent video games coz my son stabbed some other kid. its the video games fault, not my poor parenting thats to blame.

bah.

Yeah, isn't it what made the 34's so ace in the first place? I'm gonna be lapping up the attention from those hot 7-12 year olds....oh hang on.... :P

this plot sounds a bit like the one from The legend of speed i think it was called. It was a japanese movie but i think that it was good because the cars weren't riced up. In fact no stickers at all.

No Vin & no Paul Walker - whats the point of even going??? :)

http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/1808715999/trailer

I can see two 6 packs and a few scotches as a pre-requisite to see this movie...i can also see plenty of reasons in short skirts to see it....but i fear that this movie will be so bad that not even the booz and tale can hide my disgust

    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
