ummm, the FTO wasn't racing the GTR on the streets, I assure you... it's only an R32 GTS-T with GTR bodykit (the GTS rear panels were a dead giveaway, and a GTR badge does not make it a GTR) and there is NO WAY an FTO can keep up with the Godzilla... whoever wrote that article was kidding himself...!!

sorry, ppl just think i'm a little bit of a perfectionist, LOL...!!

well actually cause its from a movie, anything is possible! Its not an actually real races, just part of the storey and some 'clever' marketing! Jackie Chan is sponsored by Mistsi. Has a few diff mistsi like an Evo pajero.

Actually you'll find that at last count Jackie had over 100 Mistubishi's and that was back in 2000. The pajero he owns is a Paris Dakar rally car, actaully I think he's got two which where used in 'Where am I'. Oh and wasn't there a FTO in 'First Strike' at like a car show and jackie steals it and drives it of a ramp and lands in a boat. Can someon tell me where you can find these two other movies though please, I've wanted to see them for ages but I haven't seen where I can get them.

For all those total car nuts out there are crazy movie called Taxi is on on SBS on Sunday night too, it's a French or italian I think. Think Fast and Furios but in a peugeot 406 taxi.

Is this the Hong Kong movie about EVOs Vs WRXes? I think that was called Legends of Speed as well if it's not the same one. Cantonese movie originally with Andy Lau (or some famous actor/singer)??? I get'em all mixed up.

no, not Andy Lau... it's got Ekin Cheng in it (from Storm raiders & Young n' Dangerous gangster series), and yes it; the Evo vs WRX...

Does anybody in Melb have a copy I could borrow??
