except for the fact that in the scene the car dropped down a flight of stairs not climb up of it

It doesnt really matter whats in it because its only going to end up on display at Universal Studios. Like those Tokyo Drift cars.

Higher profit margin. I don't know how much an actual done up R34 costs, but I'm sure if I was funding this movie, I'd rather have that extra 50,000 in my pocket for myself. Wouldn't you?

Groot 09-25-2009 03:53 PM

hey you gotta admit, the body and shit looks preeeeeetty nice lolol

JSALES 09-25-2009 04:30 PM

poor car

thumper 09-25-2009 06:24 PM

well... maybe all is not lost?

like someone posted already, the r34 still not legal, but the donor bug chassis this thing is on must have a legit title so technically wouldn't this thing be legal for street use (assuming it can be made to pass inspection)?

clean it up some more, swap the engine out with a wrx sti setup like the other bug i posted a few weeks back, drop those coilovers and get spacers for those wheels... hm.

lol... seriously?

the car was BUILT for a function... they pay people to come up with solutions for stunts and this is what they did... and it worked! look at that.

AzNightmare 09-25-2009 07:36 PM

I don't see what's wrong with that.

None of you guys knew until now. So what's the problem? Maybe you guys are just angry that Hollywood had this all covered up for so many years and you just found out now. Are movies gonna spend more than necessary to film a scene with a car getting all banged up?

I don't think so.

triplexcel 09-26-2009 10:13 AM

this car is a real SLEEPER. lol...
