I call BS, that hood is just black not CF, and they claim to have the RX7 also-the one they have IS NOT the one from the movie

GOD DAMN HIPPIES!!!
 
It's amusing to see this heated of a debate about an overpriced piece of shit.
 
All I remember from the movie was thinking how many times did he shift in that opening scene? I didnt know they had a 6 speed in that car. :rolleyes: .
I think I would take the RX-7. Loved the sneaky pete system on that car.




I hated when that movie first came out. Every Riced out honda or eclipse wanted to race me in my Z28 camaro. Some honda even purged his NOS on me at a light. Stupid idiot didnt even see the cop across the street.

it is actually an 8-speed tranny... and it has reverse synchros that spin backwards because if you see him spin out at the end of that sceen his reverse lights are on, but he says that he was doing 150MPH at the end of the run... it is PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE to put a manual into reverse while going that fast... it will make a lot of noise... but it won't go into gear...
 
i didnt read where this argument ended but tf&tf eclipse is a gsx btw, they have a book out about the cars from tf&tf and 2f2f and it says it is a gsx and shows them building the cars, a 95 gsx

Oh for #### sake people. Look at the GOD DAMN picture in this thread. It is not a GSX. This is easily the most retarded thread I have ever seen. Not just becasue of the topic, but because people are still arguing over what motor the car had when there is a

BIG ####ING PICTURE

in this thread. Not to mention that whole movie was a lie, the cars were lies, and all the race scenes, get ready this may be a HUGE shock... they were all fake, too, so why should the book be any different.

Everyone should learn to read, then comprehend the information that was just read, then after doing all that post your comments.
 
Read the sales caption again i the car that is being sold was USED FOR CLOSE UPs. Not the main car that may very well have been a GSX. :p Movies involving cars use several cars with the same apperance not always identical cars.

Right, and the pic of the car was a close up shot.
 
If you watch the freaking movie, at the opening scene when he shifts eight times, it says GSX on the back of the car.....
 
ok... so we have established that it is a FWD 420a powered non turbo GSX... with an 8 speed tranny... and a stand alone fuel management system...

everyone in agreance?

Ya, and it doesnt look like it has a turbo at all, the intake goes straight to the throttle body. :laugh: :shhh:

When I do a screen save the movie still never shows up, but ummmmm... no it doesn't. Its just an ungodly huge wing.

~Edit, I spent way too much time here trying to prove my point
