i can gaurantee several things.1. lots of AWD "drifting". evo's, skylines, etc. 2. TONS of FWD "drifting". dont even want to think about it.3.super mad tyte gay pseudo-dorifters that will SOIL the name of keiichi tsuchiya

but i do bet you there will be tons of silvia's/180's/240's. and that will be bad. god i dont like this idea.

I foresee further harrasment from police. Enough to equal or surpass that given to Honda Civic owners with nice wheels and nothing else.

I despise Hollywood.

Edit: Initial D will show its self to be incredibly realistic compared to this filth.

son of a B***** i need to get my damn car soon. This is just asking for disaster, but the good thing is will be that most of these hightschool dorks will f-up very bad and make the 240sx go way down in population...then we will have more cars to scrap parts off of and we will be RARE and more JDM! so all in all it could be a good thing

hate to be the guy to tell ya... but there are at least 2 east coast civics with sr20det... and there are like 20 on the east coast with 4g63T. and there are FWD sr's - not that it matters but - its more than possible... its been done. On the west coast im sure these swaps are more popular...

So, they finally greenlighted production? Remind me to never talk to anyone who brings up Fast and the Furious when they tell me how great the S-chassis is.

im still coming to grips with this. i really could see an all star cast from crouching tiger hidden dragon doing this drifting. lol. but on a serious note, this really sux to hear. I hate attention and this will be the ultimate ticket to the rice crew venturing over to our neck of the woods. as others said, u may want to start stockpiling jdm things, engines, chassis, etc cuz when the first preview hits the screens, its either we start asking for raises from our bosses or we watch everything become overpriced. maybe it will only make it to dvd and video?

Ok so now its time to buy a super high end security system. Next i'll wait a couple years till these kids crash all their 240's then when they are rare i can sell mine for 15k plus.

But wait, im not ever planning on selling my car. I told myself that i would keep the car as long as i possibly could.

yeah. all hail the mighty 240 before the craze starts. then everyone with "normal" cars will look down on us for having.....oh god didn't even think about the RICE aspect that will go into it. i really hope they don't get to the rice level of civics. and think about how crazy drifting will get. i learned from THE ALMIGHTY KAIICHI TSUCHIYA not from no god'amned vin deisal.

I'm not all to sure how this will turn out. I think we will see more 240s, but riced out hondas will still rule. So im not all that worried, we've got a year to stay in our glory in our rare JDM tyte cars I'll still go see it. From the article it seems like they are missing the concept to drifting.

lol you purists just pray that the movie doesn't feature RB swapped Silvia's/240's then youre screwed LOL

Thinking about it I'm sure I'll still be able to get a cheap silvia from Japan It'll just make me mroe popular with tha wannabe's specially if I get it b4 the movie (like that'll happen)

*I don't like driving lhd cars on the left side of the road cuz ya gatta stick the whole right half in the next lane to see down the road if a truck's there...so I'll prolly never get a 240sx unless it's already converted to JDM spec (rhd& SR or RB)* THanks for the offer though ghetto lol

if this movie comes out and makes 240 the new thing to have, i just might have to sell my s13. i dont want ricer kids telling me stupid things and i dont want to get jacked. maybe i will go with a s12 or something else rwd.

Ok generally the first 2 movies were alright, I have them on DVD and they make for fun entertainment. This 3rd one is, in my opinion, going to do 1 of 2 things. Either A: A whole new audience will watch it and the sport of drifting will grow or B: The same ppl that ran out and bought civics and were afraid the welds on their floor board would crack, will go out and snap up 240s and buy up the available stock of SR,CA,RB, etc engines. The positive side will be for those who already have 240s, all those wonderful KAs will be tossed aside and ripe for KA-T projects.

two points...

First...Why would you worry about what other people think about your car... If you like it, thats all that matters. So what if some movie makes all the stupid kiddies wanting the same car as you, unless you act like them or mod your car like them, you have nothing to worry about.

Second...I think these movie have a Darwin-esque way of getting rid of stupid drivers. Any kid that would buy some crappy old car, and go out to the mountains/canyons and try to purposely drift the thing, deserves to crash it and hopefully loose their money / car / license.

After they destory the car mom + dad bought them, they won't be a problem anymore.
