Hey guys thought this would make a pritty cool thread, after all im sure there is atleast one car out there in some movie that you wish you yourself could drive. Some of the rides although in many films the cars they use are nuggets, they do look extremely beasty and many people do envy them.

So i thought idd start off this thread by giving my favourite car of all time even though the film is decently old now.

R34 from ' 2 Fast 2 Furious ' the car which sums up the start of the movie, until it gets run into a wall :)

No computer graphics, no stuntmen. 45 minute car chase. RIP H.B. Halicki, who not surprisingly, died filming an action movie.

There was only one Eleanor for the filming of the movie, which was low budget. Here it is today.

A real movie star.

Stallone's 1950 Mercury from Cobra. Looks different cause it was repainted for gone in 60 seconds.

Some things look better as they get older Bobby.

I'm a poor example. I was a '49 baby - and look at me now :D

+1 for Stallone's 1950 Mercury.

Also, the white 1970 dodge challanger from vanishing point/death proof and the audio slave "show me how to live" video.

Or Christine... the 1955 chev

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • 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!
