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?

:kick:

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.

I'd say if it's set in the USA, then you'll get USA cars not much else.

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.

:bond:

"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."

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...

and I WILL go see the 3rd one..

I havnt seen number two yet :kick:

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
