rev210 and Sydneykid:

As a matter of fact our shop is on the Gold Coast, and i might just get some NOS stickers and decals put onto the dual horn buttons...

but that would only encourage people to press them even more....

besides it makes my day when clueless enthusiasts can't determine the difference between what they've seen in a movie and what is REAL in the reality....

One of out suppliers is starting to get a bit unhappy with all of our quotes we are getting for our customers on NOS kits, bottles, solenoids, foggers, etc, etc that don't follow through into a special order, as more often than not most people can't afford these kits...

Have a look at the R34 on cardomain

This is apperently the car used in the movie, you can see for yourself that it does in fact have an RB26 in it. It does have the GTR logo on the front grill however the car is listed under the normal Skylines not the GTR's so i dont know wots going on there.

unless however this is purely a showcar for the movie, considering this car does 12.1 second quarters and nowhere near what is achieved in the movie but neway its still a pretty nice 34.

Zensoku,

Maybe you can offer the rice boy's a NOS sticker up front and say things like ' with this $200 sticker you won't even need the kit! '

Nothing like time-wasters to ruin it for the rest of the genuine customers like myself. I'm almost dreading the next call to my local bottle filler cause I know there's bound to be a bunch of fnf idiot-wanna-be's hanging around. I wish I had a Ozrace kit then I could just go to BOC for a refill.

I can get flames out the exhaust when I bounced off the limiter... Quite easily actually :)

No switch in my car! :)

I'm not saying its not fake, all i'm saying is how can it be done in REAL life. I like the idea of having flames out of the exhaust it looks good (not all the time though, probably with a switch or something).

I saw it yesterday....It started off awesome then just lost the intensity! I miss Vin Diesel! Funniest line in the movie is where the Fro dude rings up Paul Walker and says "Yo, wanna race?" & he says "Yeah I cud use tha money".....yet he's got an R34 GTR in his garage decked out with tha biggest NOS bottles! The things we do 4 our cars.......

:burnout:

it was funny when he calls "brian" and asks if he wants to run and he goes "yeah i need the money", then proceeds to get into a 150k+ car.

anyway, hot cars, hot chicks, it's all good!

i'm not normally a rice fan, but it was the time and the place.. you couldn't really have cars WITHOUT stickers in the movie!

i loved how they filmed the first race scene. and at least they kept it correct (skyline and supra in a diff league to the s2000 and rx-7! *flame* *flame*!)

yeah, but the skyline needed some suspension work... should have gone past the supra on every corner, then pulled away.... but somehow, with a crap driver, he never went past the supra.....

S of S

hhahhaha timmy :D thats a classic ... with all them turns .. as if ... but in a straight line ... maybe .. and the bit where he goes "i cud use the money" thats exactly what i was thinkin to myself ... how the hell can he afford a 150k car ... same goes for the rest of the racers .. the supra guys girl friend .. "u know we need the money" and they are all driving 150k+ cars hahahaa jap cars must be really cheap there ...

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
