Famous last words of a hack GTR driver :D

Yep - Initial D, local release DVD.

November 12th.

I will speak to Madman and see if there are any launch festivities or at least get the option for a group buy.

Anyone interested?

what?! they're charging $30 PER 3 EPISODES. hmmm, looks kinda expensive to buy locally.

I bought mine from here... The WHOLE season 1 (3xDVD) in funky foldout packaging.. $65 shipped to australia (takes about a week)...

actually, shmeh.. just realised I got this copy from thailand, and its the original jap version with english subtitles.

I wonder if they did a good dubbing job, most of the time the fubar the movie, like in ghost in the shell etc.

Probably best not to email directly to [email protected] ... he's the boss and thus really busy most of the time ...

If you want some info you can email me [email protected] ... I'll more than likely be putting it together in a week or so, so u can blame me if it goes wrong :D

What are you saying about "we get it wrong"? Yeah I know ghost in the shell had problems with the subs but as far as I know that was actually done by madman UK ... hmm .. anyway ... I'll make a special effort just for you guys!

oo oo can you make special mention of the club? we lub u long time and help u promote the dvd :D :D

I dunno most probably just me, but most of the time when anime gets translated to english it looses its charm...

BTW do u know which stores you'll be distributing these DVD's at?

Ahah! Guess it will be at all the normal DVD vendors. I'm sure it will be at places like JB and EB though!

As far as I know so far it's going to be pretty much the american version but PAL. Sorry about that. But at the same time a good thing as it comes with both a Jap (with subs) cut and an american cut so that's a good thing. As far as I know the sub translation is pretty good though I'm not yet sure of the rating (they may have dulled it down a little if it's going to be released as PG, but here's hoping it's M - I'll tell you tomorrow at work).

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
