I agree with AParshall,

Aside from the paintjobs, I think some guys are just butt-hurt that the FF3 car's aren't conservative enough to represent their Z's. Shouldn't you be rejoicing then? Since most of you don't want nothing to do with the movie anyway!??

And the Fortune Rx7 is awesome (less the paintjob of course).

Now back to those pics. That black and grey 350z definitely looks like the bad guy car. Maybe it's the main antagonist or villain in the movie.

 

Those Z's look kinda nice..also ricey though...

 

There is a BIG difference between "aesthetics/beauty" and personal taste. Often times, personal preference has little to do with either, but of course, everyone is entitled to his or hers

as an example, look up the original definition of the word "harmony" and what it meant to Greek hellenic/hellenistic architecture.

As a designer myself, I hope that the current "rash" of body kits and death wings gives people an appreciation of how much thought, revision, and passion goes into the design of just one production automobile.

 

The pony car is Powered by a Nissan Skyline Engine.

 

Suppose to take place in Japan and not a single japanese guy in IMDB listing. This is like Memoirs of a Geisha except with drifting


And I wonder how the real "Drift King" feel about his named being used like this, being tied to the yakuza, lol

 

Wow, i saw that pic of the stang and THOUGHT i saw only 1 exhaust tip, figured it was just a strange angle.

I know a lot of people are going to think dropping an rb26dett into an old school stang is retarded but i think its dope as hell.

 

RB26dett in an oldschool mustang doesn't sound that great on paper.

But hate it or not, THAT particular RB right there in that car looks like it might be making a ridiculous amount of power! That chasis should feel blessed.


What next? a 1000hp 2JZ out of a supra, tranplanted into an oldschool Camaro SS??

 

i saw the 2 black 350z with veilside bodykit to day on the 210 west near sylmar in LA, CA. around 2:00PM

 

cool to be in a movie

 

Were they filming?

 

I know there are some Muscle Car guys cringing at the thought of a Japanese engine in a classic Mustang. Ton of power or not....

 

i'm not sure were?
i just saw the cars on 210

 

And there are probably some yardcore Skyline GTR fanatics cringing at the heart of their car being placed in an old domestic. Goes both ways.

I don't really give a fuuuug.

 

I saw a pic of 'stang in one of my mag's statin that it was awaiting that heart transplant. can't remember which tho... I honestly think that it was a waste of a perfectly good mustang which cannot be replaced whereas a skyline is a heck of a lot easier to replace...

just so long as a car has the guts and performance to back up the looks, its good in my books aside from the usual civics that keep popping up in mag's even though they're not anything special anymore.

Bottom line: Stay away from huge wings and absurd graphics and kits and keep it clean with plenty of power to backup the looks just in case someone decides to do a highway flyby race with ya and ya can't compete cause ya got a bonestock booty. I plan on only doing my custom widebody after I have the ability to make the desired power and torque.

Just my two cents

 

you must feel very passionate about this movie to drag it up from a month ago for your first post...

 

great a mustang with an rb in it.......... another reason for these kids to slap on a gtr emblem on......

 

Mustang+GTR emblem?? I dont know what the significance is but i saw a GTR emblem on a stang yesterday. I was simply disgusted.

Pete(pointed at the stang with the emblem in disgust. In which later i cut it off in order to make my exit ramp.)

 

No but a guy in malaysia put a 1jz into a 65 mustang notchback. Beautiful transplant and he definitely did it right. I think there are pics of it floating around SF.com.

 

Holy Thread Revival Batman!

Anyways, I thought this Flash Movie is very appropriate!
