Re: 2 Fast 2 Furious GAS BLOWING

i found out something that would clear up all of the dumb "i know i saw a toyota engine in that skyline!"

the movie people that were in charge of the engine picture stuff screwed up somewhere and ended up putting a picture of the supra and labelling that picture "skylines engine" instead of "supras engine"

The Photo Is in the "Sport Compact car" issue that reviews the cars from the 2f2f after movie production. I also thought it was messed when I saw the Toyota symbol on the valve cover. :}

Re: 2 Fast 2 Furious GAS BLOWING

Infact, the month after they posted that missque, they apologized for it, in the editor's section.

Everyone knows, that the Skyline did not a Supra engine.

Re: 2 Fast 2 Furious GAS BLOWING

Okay guys the answere to the mag. article in querstion is, they simply used the wrong picture with the skyline they used the exact same pictures for both the and the skyline and the 2fast2fag supra.
Next question: why is it that in America planes, boats, rv's, motorcycles, trucks, trians and old people do not need to concern them selfs with emissions but God forbid if you want to import car.
sometimes i wonder

just great that government...

the automotive industry is the most punished industry in the world...Cause everybody knows what a car is and how it works. most people don't even know how a plane is propelled forward. so greenpeace just don't worry about planes.

In the Netherlands 15% of polution comes from cars. but everyone here believes the cars should made cleaner. it is cause of enviroment groups the car got a bad name.

Volvo introduced a car where the exhaust gasses where cleaner then the intake air...

Re: 2 Fast 2 Furious GAS BLOWING

i need links now?
i'm sure you could find some information from the California Air Resource Board, and i'm sure there are websites out there that i'm not going to waste my time looking for.
but that type of technology has been here in the states just as long, if not longer...
there's alot of stuff that manufacturers (everywhere) have that's not known about publically.
