Let me coin a new phrase :

CRAP TO THE MAX.

I don't know how they could multilate an original so badly. Acting, directing, dialogue everything was crap.

The only good thing about the movie was that my car was in it, and that Japanese girl with better acting ability than the rest of them.

OK, rant over.

Some of it was real drifting.

Seriously, the story was warped. I'm pretty sure ID fans walked out feeling that this was more a movie about Jay-whatshisface than Takumi/Bunta/AE86.

Piece of crap.

They should have consulted the writer and do a movie about Bunta, his driving legacy, the birth of Takumi and why the wife left them. It would have been awesome to have seen the AE86 take the mountains with other similarly older cars like the older RX7, Subaru Vortex, 280zx, BMW E30 M3 etc etc.

Now that would have been quite a story worth seeing, as well as the sequel.

I've just watched it on Div X, only cause it doesn't come out in teh cinema's I' ve seen

I thought overall it was good, the car stuff was great. watching it was interesting with subs, that were way toooo literal and had to translate the translations sometimes

they rushed the movie, they should have just had a series of Movies I think, 1-4 or something so they could take more time.

It wasn't as good as the anime, but its initial d so its ok in my book :D

i completely agree on so many levels. movie was a massive dissapointment which im not surprised about considering it came out of china/hk as it seems it was only made for a quick buck which unfortunately wasnt exciting.

i havent seen the movie yet but by the sounds of everyone complaining sounded pretty bad. who was the movie based around? it wasnt the takahashi brothers was it? and i couldve guessed it wasnt going to be top notch cause it was made in china, with chinese actors -_-"

Yeah i agree with what most people say here, it was really weird, cool cars, good scenery but the interpretation of the original story was terrible. To every one who has seen this, if you havent seen the original anime, please do, its sooo much better

      The spray cans were in the "Kiln" room whilst I was preping the parts,  so probably around 2 hours to get them warmed up, the kiln room has 3 small ovens running at 100°c, 3 medium sized ovens running 100°c, and the large one I used running at 80°c, the room itself was about 28°c, I also spent a bit of time taping up the parts in the room as well, and by the time I was done I would assume that the parts were around that 28°c As for power, I expect a couple of Killerwasps up high would be achievable with the current mods, I'm still running the MZR 2.0 intake and throttle body, and there is a slight mismatch with the 2.0 intake (smaller) and 2.5 intake ports (larger) on the head, this intake is matched and specifically designed to fix this issue with the ports mismatch, the throttle body is also a couple of mm larger, OEM is 65mm, the Bosch is 68mm In the end it will look "prettier" than the molded plastic thing that is the OEM MZR 2.0 intake As for the LSD, it's the OEM Torsen which works fine for what I use the car for, plus, basically no maintenance apart from the occasional oil change

      Mate , I have the same issue right now with the exhaust noise , if you can tell me what your local guy did , I'll talk to my guys and see if they can do the same. Power is good but it just too loud when put it down.

      The other trick I've found with wrinkle black is to put the can in hot water for a bit to warm the paint up, and to pre-heat whatever you're painting. It'll be interesting to see if you pick up any power with the intake, following with interest. Got a proper lsd for this?
