I've seen "The chase is on" and it's fair dodge!

I haven't seen it myself.... but I've updated my first post, because I made an error.

This Saturday is the premier screening of the short film "RUSH" (Ford GT ripping it up)

They will also be screening a directors cut/preview of the new upcoming movie which is actually called "Crash Course" and will be Traction Control Films' first full length feature film.

Hope that clarifies everything ;)

lol... the info I posted here was to help out Cam (the director) to promote the screening of his short film. So if you have comments you're welcome to post them dude. :D

They didn't show much of a "preview" for the upcoming movie (crash course). I think "RUSH" was more of an experiement in filming techniques for high speed camera filming. The video quality was sometimes pretty average, due to some very brief moments of oversaturation in bright scenes, and losing focus when following a car with the camera at high speed. It was obvious that it was filmed in hi-definition Digital video. It would take many practice runs to line up the chase car ideally to get the perfect shot and angle while keeping the car in focus the entire time - not as easy as it looks!. As a learning experience for the film crew I think they gained alot from making RUSH... hopefully they can bring it all together with the editing, ACTING, and filming to make a proper full length movie.

As for the movie they released about a year ago ("the chase is on") - this was the first time I'd seen parts of it in the directors cut, and I personally thought the acting was pathetic. :( Hopefully they will get some real actors for the full feature movie.

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By MBS206 · Posted

      It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!

      The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.

      What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.

      Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
