Regarding what car was just used in 2F2F, it was a R34 GTT with GTR bodykit. The behind the scenes docos confirm this as. A real GTR may have been used for stationary shots etc, but Paul Walker's character definitely drove a GTT without question,

Hey Kevin, the link you have posted is to a thread about the 4th film 'Fast and Furious' ,hence the thread title. Furthermore it reiterates this in the article: "This R34 started its life as a GTT rear wheel drive platform and was then recruited to become a stunt double for the hero car for the Fast and Furious 4 movie".

Several people on Gtroc have been told directly by Andy Middlehurst that two UKDM BNR34s were purchased by the producers of 2 Fast 2 Furious for the the film.

In the Fourth film i know Gtts were used as stunt cars ( as R34 Gtrs are nearly impossible to get in the US, and as such are too valuable to be smashed up), however, the original Hero car was in fact a Genuine r34gtr (albeit a 'Kaizo' car) and in the second film 2F2F , which is the topic of discussion, the Hero car was again a Genuine R34gtr. I would not be at all surprised if Gtts were also used as stunt cars for this film, however,for all intents and purposes the car was meant to be/ is a gtr, so what replica they used for stunts or scenes where the car gets damaged is irrelevant

Cheers

Hey Kyle,

I get it mate,

Almost everyone gets the inclination for decals on their Skyline at some point.

I little while ago I got quotes for a Monster claw across my bonnet, for $1000 and seriously considered it and still am.

I like my music and might start a website soon streaming funk so see my skirts.

Anyway, decals are an opportunity for uniqueness, so go for it.

it was meant to be a 34R however as they had to trash a whole bunch of them they just used GT / GTT's and pretended except for 1 car

someone posted a pic of all the mangled cars on here aaaaages ago

also, who gives a shit? it was a terrible movie anyway

Stop stirring people on with your obvious and do liberate stupidity.

If you're so obsessed and determined with getting those original F&F decals then why have you not posted any pictures yet?

You're just a troller. Pathetic.

Mate are you kidding? I posted the photo like last week, read the comments, idk why it was removed from my post.

Hi Kyle, I respect the fact you went ahead with what you wanted to do on your car regardless of what people say. I like that. Each to their own. As long as you like it, who care what people say.

Cheers

Thankyou, appreciate it.

I was parked in a car park the other day and a guy was driving out and he actually stopped his car in the middle of the car park and got out to take a photo.

Mechanic? Cut the springs to sit it on it's rims. Done in an hour.

cutting springs never works out, they dont sit right and shit just starts to happen to the ride, had someone do it on a golf before and when you went full lock it started to click

Just saying. Cheap option and works well if you take one coil out and make sure it lines up properly. Did it to a few of my cars, no issues. Sometimes needed to clamp the spring on the strut to stop it moving around.

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff
