I thought it was ridiculously crap... only good things about the movie were:

Cameo appearance by Keichi Tsuchiya

Panda AE86 in the background of 1 scene

Real Japanese Drift Team in the Background of 1 scene

The rest of the movie was a ricey piece of crap just like the first two.

Yeh was a bit of a cheese festival, but youve gotta admit there was some really nice driving and cars in there, was wondering how many others would notice Keichi

what did you expect? did you think it was going to be some hardcore drifting with stock looking cars? they have to make it appealing to everyone.

No I just expected SOME level of authenticity and real life comparison.

Like a major car in the movie was an EVO... yeah real popular drift car. If your gonna produce a movie liek that at least do your research and make it somewhat believable. Instead of 200km/h perfect drifts in an AWD EVO :whistling:

Dont get me wrong was an alright movie... and im not disappointed coz i expected more, coz I knew itd be shit. Im disappointed because of what it means for the drifting community.

Any of you watch Channel 7 Sunrise the other morning ? Police Commissioner labelling and condemning drifters on national TV... wankers in commodores, civics and everything else under the sun thinking they are Takumi Juniour... all biproducts of this movie, wait n see :P

Best burnout scene ever :whistling:

Veilside RX7 around 33GTR with 2 lovely chicks inside, magic.

I liked it better than the first two, but yeah the ending was a bit "unbelievable".

Except for the graphics/stickers/vinyls i think the cars were pretty representative, but you could definatley tell the bias towards nissan/350z and the Evo ala 2F2F.

US$11,000 for the full kit.

Also need to budget for rims and rubber.

* Recommended Wheel Size

Front 19 x 9.0 (-6)

Rear 19 x 12.0 (-34)

That mean 265 rubber on the front and 355 rubber on the back (or thereabouts). Pricey if you wanna drift like Han does...

The Veilside Fortune kit for FD RX7 is the hottest aftermarket bodykit ever.

Anyone got a price for it? :whistling:

i dont think i saw any neons in the movie

HAHA

went ot see the movie last night with everyone from AE86driving club... lol funniest shit.. they all went nuts when the AE86 was in the back ground of one shot

all in all it actualy impressed me for what i was expecting

I havent seen it yet, going on Monday with SAu Qld people.

But you cant tell me some other movies are meant to come across as realistic but have a few things that are just insane. Like any of the early Bruce Willis movies. Like the blood looks real, the guns sound real, but the guy gets kicked in the head and hit by a chain for 30mins over the lenght of the movie then walks off at the end. Toss toss. Its a movie, its unless its some 'real' story it should be somewhat unreal.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
