Unrealistic aspects I noticed on 2F2F (not the obvious stuff)

these are the general car things that i noticed that are fake..

the pink s2000 has turbo gauges and shoots flames from her mufflers (high boost turbo with straight pipes... or else ricey methane injection, which usually is yellow flames, not blue) but when her bumper gets smashed off there is no innercooler, and if you are running high enough boost to have flames coming out of your mufflers you'd need an innercooler.

the evo flips a bitch in the middle of the freeway and goes in reverse... you cant go 70mph, or however fast he was going, in reverse.

in the 4 car race at the beginning Brian does 3 shifts (putting him in 4th gear) and then a few seconds later it shows his speedometer and hes barely going 80mph... in a skyline you wouldnt be shifting into 4th gear going 80, you'd probably be in 2nd, especially if you were racing all out.

and since when are cop cars as fast as really heavily modified cars, and since when do they handle as well as them either? on some of the chases the cops are right on brian and tyrese's ass.


this one isnt necessarily a fake aspect, but what did they do with the half-full nitrous tanks that shot the passenger seat out in the camaro and mustang

the pink S2000 has a votech super charger on it. so therefore a intercooler is not necessary

these f&f cars weren't super bad like last one's supra

i think they were all like 13 sec cars anyways.... and aren't cop cars like 13 sec cars?

suspension wise im not sure... hmm... because all that street racing at the beginning they were drifting on everything. im not sure how good the suspension is on a cop car - prolly decent


this one was a lot better than the last one in terms of mistakes, really werent that many. and the ones they made (like going in reverse 70mph) werent really supposed to be for real, they were just made for show to appeal to general public...

anyways, i thought it was pretty good!

Yea, i saw it last on friday night(opening night). That chick with the pink s2000 couldn't act at all man . How did she get that freakin part? Another unrealistic part in the movie that you forgot to mention man, was the last scene( not gonna give much away). They(brian especially) should've been hurt alot worst than he was if u ask me Also, dont u guys think that the 1st race scene where they..........nvm, ill try not to give nothing further away. But u guys who have seen the movie, dont u think that that stunt would've done alot more damage to them and their cars? I know its a movie but cmon

Police cars are not your average crown vics, although the engine stays basically unmodified, the suspension is HEAVILY redesigned. The interceptor package for the police cars really makes those cars handle incredibly well for their weight.

one, in that movie, in the movie world those car are suppose to be high 11, and low 12 second cars, you just mistaken them when sport compact car did a test on them to see how fast they really were. and in reality they were high 13 to 14 second cars. (its casue they were abused in the production of the movie and the skyline had its AWD and 4 wheel steering disabled) and the crown vics the police editions can run 15 second 1/4 mile and can cruise at 120mph all day. so i hope you didn't think those skylines in the movie are suppose to be 14 second car becuase that would be a joke. i can get the exact times in fact

movie world:

skyline: around 500hp
0-60 in 3.9 seconds
1/4 mile in 12.1 seconds

supra: around 600 hp
0-60 in 4.1 seconds
1/4 mile in 11.9 seconds

S2000: around 400 hp
0-60 in 4.5 seconds
1/4 mile in 12.4 seconds

those car seems pretty damn fast to me, see if you compare their speed in the movie world its nothing like their speed compared to the cars in real life. since the skyline's nitrious even isn't hooked up in the real car.

ok i musta got them mixed up then...... i know skylines are pretty damn quick

aren't police cars faster than 15? if they aren't by you they sure as hell are by me, i seen one pick up the other day and it sounded very very very very badass, it was incredible loud and the whole car jumped, it seemed just about as fast as a firebird.

my brother has an Impala SS. on stock gearing he got it up to 150mph before. With his new gears I think 3:73 or something can't remeber he ran a 14.6 out at the track. Not that bad considering he waisted a GT steeda on the way home. It has more top end.

The impala SS is basically a police car as far as engine and suspension.
My brother has some Hatchkis springs I believe and it handles ok..... you can tell its a heavy car but it does go...

They run 15-16's stock, police cars aren't that fast.
The New Vics have 210hp on a 4.6L I believe so I would suspect an Impala would tear them up, even police guys complain and want their old 9C1's back hehe.

he ran a 14.6 on test and tune night

new posi
3:73 ? 3:11 gears? can't remeber
CAI
headers
no cats
Magnaflow mufflers
high stall TQ
shift kit
275/45/17 ZR Kumho Supra tires

this summer he's going to rebuild it with some forged pistons, a new cam, some new rockers... and he might put a little bit of NOS on it for the track or such. His engine is old and has had some abuse and misfirings for awhile sporadically so it can't be running too strong. After his rebuild he should be in 13's I would think.

and thats modified a hell of a lot more then a cop car....

I also thought in 2F2F the cops chasing them was unrealistic as far as keeping up in speed and handling. A Stock Evo would tear up a police interceptor in about any category besides weight hehe.

I hate the damn movie cuz we'll have a multitude of brand spankin new ricers out now. Statistically, the ricer population had JUST started to go back down. it climbed like hell right after FATF and then slowed a lot, and it was JSUT GOING DOWN!!!! (yes i actually do have the charts and shit from whatever national checking-statistics-on-every-bullshit-thing-in-merica headquarters did the polls. It's my job. don't ask.)
Not only all that shit but our aftermarket prices are gonna go up too. big thanks once again to hollywood. Since they took out my pissed off looking finger boy... heres this guy. pretend he's pissed off.

but you can actually buy a flame kit so when you press a button the flames come out the back. That's how they did it in the movie.

Police cars aren't any faster or handle any better than a regular civilian crown vic or caprice or impala. Car and Driver tested a crown vic cop car a few years ago and it was slower and handled worse in every test than a regular crown vic. They aren't supposed to be fast, they don't have to be. 99% of people will stop when a cop hits his lights, and the ones that run the cops get by using radio and sheer numbers.

The movie wasn't supposed to be realistic. Spiderman wasn't very realistic either, but I don't hear anybody saying it sucked bacause people can't REALLY climb walls or shoot web from their wrists.

I did like the way their boost guages shot to maximum value every time they sprayed nitrous though

And an intercooler is just as important on a centrifugal supercharger as a turbo. The Vortech kit uses a water/air IC though, which doesn't have to be placed behind the bumper or anywhere in the airflow.

All in all, I thought it was a good movie. It was entertaining, and that's what matters. If I wanted to see a realistic depiction of racing, I would have just went to the track.

Think of it this way, if we didnt have ricers think of how hard it would be to find a race. I mean maybe where you live you have tons of cool cars to race but around hear I sure dont. So no im not upset the ricer population has gone up im kinda of happy. Except the part about parts prces going up is that really ture?
