Fast and the furious

Has anyone ever noticed that the eclipse on the fast and the fourious has a 420a in it?

Yes?

ya

haha, I guess the point is, they could of atleast got a GST or GSX

they could...but then they would have to find atleast 7 GSX/GST
 
its all about lowering the cost as much as possible

not to mention how many people would try to kill them if they ruined a perfectly good gst/x

this has been talked about so much on here...

Ya.. the movie wasnt made to be real...

Yep

although, i've got to give the movie props... i was always into cars, but i think it was fast and the furious that got me into tuner cars... which would explain my old rs... but now i've got a pretty sweet gsx thats not in the least bit a ricer... so i dunno how i feel about fast and the furious

you guys ever notice that in 2f2f the 3g and Evo are BONE STOCK under the hood yet the have super loud BOVs and exhaust and the 3G sound effects switch back and forth from being supercharger to turbo

i noticed the first part of that, never when it switched between sc and turbo tho

sk8, ur gsx will look a lot better when it A. Runs, B. You are using that built motor to your advantage, C. get rid of the body kit, D. doesn't it have alteza tail lights? yea, gotta get rid of them first.

it only has the side skirts, and i have the stockers that will go back on when i repaint everything, and no it has the stock tailights, but the center piece is painted to match the car...  and emonz i did notice that the sounds kept switching, but if you've noticed just about every car in those movies sound exactly the same when they shouldnt, it's all just "sound over" stuff

Dude, you're just figuring this out?? LOL. That roof scoop was cool though

yeah i didn't notice in the beginning when i knew squat but after a while picked up on the 420a myself, and yeah the evo and 3g r stock which i thought was funny, and yeah i realized the switches between sc and turbo
it's weird f&f got me more into tuner cars, but now i don't really like f&f anymore cuz it's too ricey

never noticed the sound difference (sc vs tc on 3g)... i'll have to watch it again.  
sk8 - def keep it stock looking :) nothing cleaner on the road than a stock lookin 2g w/ a nice FMIC smiling at you.
 

Also for being "fast" cars with nos it takes them about a minute to run the quarter mile...

and they must have 10 speed trannys in them cuz they shift about every 5 secs

first scene in FNF when "brian" is testing out his car "****..." lol yea.  he shifts like 6 or 7 times w/ the Type S going off every time.. gay.

Yeah WTF is the roof scoop supposed to do?

aestetics only... i personally think it looks good but would much rather have my Sunroof.

Its their to slow the car down, that 420a puts out a ridicolous amount of  power and without that roofscoop it would simply loose control from going to fast.  and personally i liked tokyo drift.

ya.. has a GS, with a "$10,000 stand alone" in it...   hmmm..

i only watch the movies for entertainment value nothing more.  was anything even done to the skyline in the second movie?
 
 
OH SNAP that was my 666th post

Actually i believe that was paul walkers personal skyline.  Lucky bastard.
