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.

    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree.
