all they do is just "COPY INITIAL-D", omg, come up with something ORIGINAL for god sake.

This generation come up with something orginal. Yeah right. How many movies are coming out that are spin offs of an old television show. Hollywood has hit rock bottom

well u know whats funny...is you guys are into modding import cars and well..the whole import scene was small until F & F came out...yet your ragging the movie. Now i must agree the movie sucks, but you cant really make fun of it. Espectially you cficare..you got TYC taillights...damn those say "Fast and the Furious" on the box. ahah...you are contradicting yourself.

True it did open up the import scene. However it also opened up a bunch of 16 year old kids that think yeah can put an intake and a fart can on a honduh civic, and believes that it is the fast thing on the street, and also i encourages people to do totally stupid shit that not only puts there life in jeopardy, but also the life of others because. And about my TYC Tailights. I didn't by them cause they said F & F on the box. Hell I would have bought them if it said my little pony on the box. I bought them because they looked a hell of a lot better than the stock tailights, they went with the scheme of my car, and also they where only $60 of ebay.

i know that the first fast and the furious turned me onto learning about cars. now when i look back at the movie, i see a number of parts in the movie that have incorrect/stupid information

I met Eddie Paul, the guy who did all the cars for F & F, at a san diego car show. No one seemed to know who he was, neither did I, except I asked him. I was too busy checking out cars, I never had a chance to grill him for some of his ridiculous designs and paint schemes. Plus, what the hell is up with a 420a in the green eclipse? Had he known a single thing about cars and car cults, he wouldve done up a 4g63. etc, etc, etc. BUT, I guess those sortsa movies arent for pppl who are actually into cars...they are all commercial BS, and they sell what ppl want to see I guess...

he didnt design the cars. most of the cars are real cars. and most of the time, they were driven by their owners.(except for the main cars in the movie)

i love the way they make the 3G eclipse look so fast in 2f2f. the engine is completely stock.

cficare68 · #10 07-15-2005, 06:14 PM

That's cool i didn't know that it was completely stock. That's funny that they made it so fast.

Uh, thats not what he told me. He said that he was incharge of what stuff would attract a crowd to the theatres, so he came up with... neon underbody lights. And a really loud paintjob. I wish I had his job, i'd make some sic assss lookin rides.

It was really embarassing because no one knew him at ALL. His booth was EMPTY, poor guy was just sitting there, so I said "I'm bart simpson, who the hell are you?" . lol. At least he had a good sense of humor.

No shit talk about the dream job. You get to spend someone else's money to trick out cars. That would be a job i would actually enjoy getting up to go to

hey look guys....we have a 2f2f fanatic here.

did i hear the turbo BOV when he was racing the hispanic dude? yes i did. do you want me to let you in on a little secret? ITS CALLED SOUND EFFECTS. THEY MAKE THE NOICES ON A SOUNDSTAGE.

here is information on the 3G in the movie. the actual car that was used in the movie had NO performance mods done to it other than a short shifter(if you want to call that a performance mod). it did have all the electronic eyecandy stuff done to make it more appealing. now the car that the 3G was based off of has a RIPP supercharger on it and is located in Florida. this is the car that the movie 3G was based off of... http://www.wnycarclubs.com/fastfurious.asp

you say the eclipse has a turbo....WATCH THE MOVIE AGAIN. in the scene after they race to the boat yard, paul walker and tyrese take the eclipse and evo to the chinese dude to have the electronics checked. after he checks the evo, they walk back to the eclipse. you get a quick shot of the engine. IT STILL HAS THE STOCK INTAKE ON IT!!!!
