Your kidding, that E link says it will be about Vin rescuing a friend from a group of gangsters in tokyo or some shit..

Atleast it will be in Tokyo, so we know for sure there will be good cars.

But straight away you can tell the cars will be 3rd to the actors and the plot, when the cars should be 1st!

Who really cares about some 'save my friend from gangster' shit, all i wanna see is good cars, not vin driving to each scene in a good car and thats it

Theyve already used this idea with Johnny Tran in the 1st one,

They also mention that Walker probably isnt going to be in it,

That vin a a greedy bastard, IE he ONLY got $11 Million for his last movie..

Oh is that all? To have fun and be known everywhere doing what everyone else wishes they could do.

I just hope this movie doesnt make the car world for us any harder, i know the first movie started a street racing revolution to which all these new hoon laws etc

If there is drifiting in this one like its been rumored, then it will be back for everyone

So, Who wants $20Million to say some stuff on camera and drive around tokyo?

I'd say if it's set in the USA, then you'll get USA cars not much else. if it's set somewhere else then you'll get cars that be driven there in the movie.

Over in the USA most people won't know what a skyline is because you can't get them there, so it's no point in putting skylines into a movie that's based in a place where you can't really import the car let alone buy it.

The last one was set in USA and it had an R34 GTR, MkIV Supra, RX-7, Mitsu Evo 7, FTO etc etc... hell there was even an S13 silvia in the first one... So saying that isn't really true since that what the fast/furious movies are all about. Underground street racing culture, not main stream US cars. It will be an import of some kind, trust me.

the fast and the furious's depection of underground street racing culture is about as accurate as an american air strike.....

Hey have any of you guys seen a movies called Redlined? Its an aussie movie made in 2001, and contained a Fast and the Furious type story line... as far as i know it was never realised here, as i brought it back from bali on DVD... it has no story line... no actual talking till about 15mins into it... and has the corniest aussie police acting... not to mention a WRX that out ran the cops in reverse... I've only seen it once, early one morning and the only reason i stayed awake was the disbeleif that movies came this shit... Provides a better laugh than Driven... put it that way!

Hey look they may not be all the on the ball but it's better than watching Dirty dancing with your Mrs!! The more car movies the better. I'm sure you'll find movies like James bond, XXX, Titanic etc. etc. are pretty way off too but hey, who fu(king cares, It a MOVIE and it's entertaining :)

everyone complains and picks on the movies, then they all watch it AT LEAST ONCE..

They are movies, they are for entertainment..

I don't know about you but GTR's, EVO's, muscle cars, Eva Mendez... That to me is entertainment...

I havnt seen number two yet :kick:

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By CF.Panda · Posted

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
