Default Fast and Furious 3

Here's some pics of the 67 mustang supposed to be starring in the upcoming fast and furious 3... don't know how true it is, i thought they hadn't commenced filming yet.









Note the RB26, Volk wheels, and cannon tip amongst other things....

Its painful to think that all these young teens wil think that that car is good to do to a stang.. This movie will brain wash many a mind about the true meaning of a MUSCLE CAR...

Every time you mention a Windsor based stroker it gets bigger and bigger....

While that is kinda cool in a wierd sorta way, a F6 motor woulda been nicer :P

Alright calm down ladies, the engine atleast is still impressive.
Nobody seemed to mind when Holden used a skyline engine in the VL's and blew away the competition.

First pic it looks like its dinged up, then the next is ok?
Maybe an XR6T motor just for fun, but not that thing..

But with twin turbos, you don't need the extra cubes. Marty White's car has over 800hp from sub 7l.. (408 stroker?)

Need? Bah! For 800hp you don't really need 7 litres... but hey, come on... where's the fun? 470 ci... mmmmm.

Plus imagine the power a 470 TT could make... *sits down to day dream about 2500hp TT 470W's*

now find a crank that will hold at 2500hp and a driveline that will cope....

Oh, and just wait till you've driven 400rwhp in a fairly aincient chassis, its a whole lot different to Grand Turismo or the mighty Pintara....

I'd heard it was a GT-R engine in a 60's Muzzy, so I heard fairly well.
Apparently there's gunna be a Veilside RX7 too.
I don't quite get the engine swap though. She's probably not that nimble a beast.

The man with the Wheel Standing Coupe speaks the truth :P
(And is probably very calm too!)

gee & those photo's don't look chopped now DO they????
That 3rd shot looks like the engine almost lines up with where the rear left wheel should be.
Notice also how the bonnet is absent in the 1st pic, yet it's there in the others..

Yeah but a VL isnt a muscle car like the Mussie is it?

Thats just wrong putting a RB into a Mustang, fair enouigh they are a great engine but seriously jap performance in a American legend= Big No Noes.

In the background of the first pic you can see 3 identical black/gold cars, looks right for a F&F movie.

I think if they wanted to make an impression with that Mustang, they should have used a Typhoon engine rather than just another GTR engine, it would even sound cool naming it in the movie and they could also make a deal about it being 4L not 2.6L etc... Mind you it would cost more than a heap of Jap import rubbish.
