Those 1.8T Volkswagens are strong engines tho. It may have been a hidden gem that he was so confident to beat the S2000, because for several years, tuning shops couldn’t figure out how to make more power from the F20C because it was so well-tuned from the factory.
I took my son to see “The Fast and the Furious” when he was five. He asked about the Civics in the hijacking scenes...and he was hooked. By the time he was a teenager,he knew his way around Civics - and every style of the model.
I grew up with the movies too, I was three when I first saw it and I had a matchbox heist civic and Rodgers semi truck to play with. I started early lol
I feel like the post production sounds are some of the stranger things to learn about. Eclipse = Subaru rumble, 5 Series = V10 sounds, RX7 = 2JZ sounds, Heist Civics = same sounds as Brian’s Eclipse
It was recorded of Greg Leone's CRX which was super custom built, it was a rear engine H22 supercharged, I want to say it was AWD as well but I could be wrong, it was a very long time ago lol
@@TheRacingJoker yeah it was on MTV's True Life: I'm a Street Racer, it was a very accurate depiction of how it was back in the day, that CRX and it's owner can be seen in a few scenes in the first race and at Race Wars
@Brooklyn Chalmers Alright!I didn't recognise you because I saw a different profile pic,but then I saw your name.I saw that you have a new video,so I will check it.
fun fact: the roof scoop of Brian's eclipse was such a hassle during filming because they had to cover it up every single time after a take because rain water could actually get stuck inside the roof scoop itself.
Bruh that thing actually goes into the roof? What did they try to bridge between real scoop and fake scoop? Like oh it's not functional but also let's make it lead into the actual roof of the car. What a bruh moment
@@sneakysnake7695 Well it kinda made sense. Most of the cars you see on screen were Real cars rented out by Owners. They were customised according to the film. Once production ended, they were restored back to previous tunes and returned back to the owners. It's easy to change Skirts and Bumpers, but roof customisation would require reshaping the entire panel. So they just tacked on a Cardboard piece and spray painted it to match the car colour.
In the mid-late 90s, there were 2 classes using the same kind of modified roadlegal engines: supertourers and F2 rallycars. Both had an engine displacement limit of 2000cc and turbo/supercharging was 100% illegal. Teams like WilliamsF1, Audi Sport (also did the Audi R8 Le Mans car), Tom Walkinshaw Racing (also did the Jaguar Le Mans cars), Prodrive (also did the Subaru WRC cars), Peugeot Sport and a couple more could get over 300hp for no less than 7 hours. You're gonna need some serious BANK to make 300hp for long periods starting with an engine that would make 150-170hp out of the factory.
I always wondered why the Fast 4 "GTR" had the MFD "deleted" when that what makes the GTR R34 different from the GTT R34. Unless the current owner of the R34 was a MotoRex car. I highly doubt it's the "real" GTR he could just be faking the VIN code since the GTT VIN codes start with ER34 and not BNR34 like whats to hide if your car is the GTR R34 unless its an illegal R34
@@TheRacingJoker I’m pretty sure Craig has said that only the hero car was an actual gtr and the rest were gtt’s, there is also a video of an r34 shell on a buggy chassis on yt used for the fall scene
@@powderedbuns8251 i agree that the K is superior. I just like simplicity. The B series are from cars of 1993 to 2000 and the K swaps in the newer models. I think for a mechanic it's easier that way... More related to the fitting of engine mounts, less fabrication to make it work. As a kid i grew up seeing the B series in the integra so it holds a spot in my heart. Kind of like the generation before felt for their muscle cars.
Imma disagree with the Skyline GTT conversion thing, even if it was a conversion that john was simple and clean. We can definitely talk about the green eclipse, the purple eclipse spyder (ugly af) and the Jetta. The Jetta definitely fit jessie doe I think.
I had a friend from back then that looked and dressed a lot like Jesse. He had a Jetta at one point. He crashed it without insurance. Come to think of it I’m not even sure if he’s alive now either.
To be honest, I never really gave much consideration to the actual specs of the cars in these movies. I mean, in real life I see sleeper cars out perform 100 thousand dollar exotics so I assumed the same logic here. I just assumed that all the cars in these films were "10 second cars" because of upgrades.
About 2 years late, but... audio engineer here! I think your dynamic range is in pretty good shape; no need to mess with the compressor too much. I am hearing some ringing somewhere in the mids, however (maybe around 300-400Hz). Try a wide-Q parametric cut around 400Hz, cutting by 1.5-3dB. Another solution for that ringing might be some acoustic treatment. Check out Primacoustic for some pre-built broadband absorption panels (or build some yourself using Rockwool or Owens-Corning 703 if you're feeling in the DIY mood). Maybe try some different microphone positions; where is your mic placed currently? You could probably move the mic away from your mouth just a *little bit*.
im an audio engineer & honestly you're doin fine my man, better than a lot of peoples audio. if you really wanted to go the extra mile you could de-ess the recordings to lower some of the sss & ff sounds but it's not necessary, the videos sound good, good job bro.
With Brian's R34 from F4, I believe Craig Lieberman said the Hero 1 car WAS a GTR, but the rest were GTTs. I'll have to double check his video before putting money on it though.
The R34's that arent GTR's were chosen because they were easier to do stunts with because they lacked the all wheel steering that the GTR's had. Also, they were easier to get a hold of.
The pictures that you showed of the R34 GTR must definitely be stunt cars coz as you said there’s only one reverse light on back on a real Gtr that’s my assumption anyway
Now I do have to say. I had a 1999 eclipse RS 5 speed I/h/e 420a and it would shoot some massive flames when down shifting still do not know why or how and it was also running on the stock ECU
The Jetta could be close to the S2000 with some crazy weight reduction and the good N/A 2000cc engine out of a Volkswagen Golf. Supertouring and F2 rallycars from the mid-late 90s used the same engine specs (2000cc with no turbo or supercharging) and could crank 300hp for no less than 7 hours (supertourers did some endurance racing). If you're only using the top power in short bursts, I'm sure you could get it to 350hp.
If I ever get an 02 hardtop Eclipse Spyder Imma engine swap with a 4G63 and do an awd conversion while lowering the stock suspension... Honestly overall while stock it's really not a bad looking design (it's got good rims but a nice aftermarket set wouldn't hurt) but the the fact they made it a V6 with fwd kinda ruined the whole deal especially compared to the GSX
one thing i never understood, why is there no vr6 inside of jessys "jetta"? (why did they named it jetta in the us?) a vr6, maybe with turbo would be an awesome built for a flic like this. there is one scene with the hood open and you see a very strange engine configuration with a lot of fake stuff going on.
I had a 90 plymouth laser rs and it was close to 11s. Definitely wasn't stock but I didn't dump tons of money into. It was way faster than my 87 supra turbo.
If you have the disk for the 4th movie in the behind the scenes stuff they talk about how they converted a gt-t to look like a gt-r because they were easier to import and being rwd they could get more exaggerated shots for the street race
I know this is one of your older vids, but I wanted to say if you check the director's commentary on the 4th movie, director Justin Lin says that it is a Gt-t with a body kit. He said the reason was mostly price. A real Gt-R would have run close to 100k, vs a Gt-t which could be had for about 5k and the modded for a lot less than the cost of getting a real one. So yeah, you are exactly right dude.
iirc Tyrese Gibson himself selected the Lowenharts for the Eclipse, and paid for each set for all the car copies. i forget what the original wheels were supposed to be, but Tyrese hated them and demanded they swap em out.
Not a bad idea. From my understanding in a GTT the drivetrain is very different (rear wheel drive), different powertrain, less tech and features like the MFD or rear wheel steering. I’m pretty sure the actually dimensions of the car are different too
A r34 GTT or as guys in Australia call it the r34 25gt has a rear wheel drive layout is only a 5 speed transmission and has what’s called a neo6 engine(some type of a six cylinder engine obviously. Those are the real obvious difference unless you want to get technical 😂
i know this sounds crazy but we had a friend deploy and he asked us to car sit for him he had a honda civic i had a 71 ltd and one day i was running low on gas in my car so i took my kid to school in his and it was a super fun ride really sporty in the way it drove im usually a muscle car girl but i was kinda sad when he came home and we had to give the car back lol
Any way I could see this documentation? I just need a way to verify the car’s identity and see the VIN, because it looks like an R34 GTR that was sorta converted to GTT by someone
The 2 fast eclipse was a nightmare lol . I actually bought a gsx eclipse back in the day 2 months before fast and furious even came out. I was proud when I first saw Brian's eclipse. I thought I was the shit when I left the theater 😂
Dude what is really disappointment is the BS you said after this 6:47 without taking any context from the movie reason and why they did such thing with thoose cars, no wonder you drive a BMW. smh
Idk if all the blue skylines in the 4th film where made that way but my guess is they probably where and they had a car they would use for important shots but all those cars are not even close to real they are all chassis mounted on dune buggie frames the engine is actually in the rear. So in fact NONE of the skylines are even remotely close to real
A Buick Regal painted black, turbocharged, and emblemed properly with all the correct GN badging, does that make it a Grand National? Absolutely not. RPO codes are important for a reason. A GT-T or GT-S is not a GT-R.
If a car is replicated close enough that it looks, drives and feels like a higher trim model, what exactly is the difference aside from some arbitrary numbers? Aside from resale value, what other argument is there?
Maybe it isn't a true Grand National... But if it looks like the real thing, handles like the real thing, and goes like the real thing, and is cheaper than the real thing... I'll take the replica, thankyouverymuch.
It's kinda funky but in a racing movie the audience was definitely owed a wheelie and a burnout. Since it was the last race of the movie why not do both at once and look awesome doing it?
@@TheRacingJoker Personally I think it would’ve made more sense for Dom’s Charger to wheelstand and the Supra to burnout. Still the discrepancy between the Hero Charger and the one they used in the last scene is more disappointing than anything lol.
@@mattreynolds4488 true....or just a wheelie for the charger without the supra doing a burnout since both will have to and It was a street race after all
@@TheRacingJoker it did...but still I mean😂 but I guess that's fast and furious for ya but it's my all time favorite scene yet realistically speaking most disappointing
as well as the supercharger being fake. i think the only time it had the real engine was in the garage when he was showing brian. then they had to give the engine back as it was a loner.
In regards to the F4 R34 GTR/GTT, I’m actually thankful they didn’t use the GTR for the stunts. If I were making a film and wanted an R34 GTR in it I’d rather use a GTT with a GTR body kit rather than a actual GTR.
Looking at the history of Suki's car in the second movie makes you wonder how we fell for the cheap tricks in thinking these cars were nice. Two words, bath mats.
I thought that one of all the R34 in Fast and furious was a real GTR, and it was exported last minute after filming, because this GTR wasnt allowed to be in the US ?
The Real Hero Car of Brian’s Blue GT-R is standing in the Motorworld in Munich and I think I could get the VIN if you’re interested. But I don’t know If you’re even Reading this so just let me know if you do, so I can answer you the VIN here. Or you are in Munich one Day, then you could check it yourself. It’s standing at the dealership named „GTA“ and I think it will be there a While since it’s standing there for over a Year and a Half now.
Ariiq he did and he and I have spoken on the phone about it before, but I’m going to have to respectfully disagree with him because all the evidence points towards to the R34 not bring a GTR. The owner couldn’t even prove to me that the car was a GTR, and I can’t really take his word for it
The real disappointment is that Jesse could have been driving an M3
I wonder what it would’ve looked like
The Racing Joker probably like how the bmw in 2fast had that gtr bodykit with the livery from the jetta we have
Klyve Mercado I’d love to see someone do a “what if” build with an M3 that has the white paintjob and Troy Lee livery from Jesse’s Jetta.
I wonder why they didn’t get e36 M3s for him if euro cars were on the table anyway.
Those 1.8T Volkswagens are strong engines tho. It may have been a hidden gem that he was so confident to beat the S2000, because for several years, tuning shops couldn’t figure out how to make more power from the F20C because it was so well-tuned from the factory.

Yes, and throw in three T66 turbos, with NOS, and a MoTeC system exhaust for good measure.

The Racing Joker Just looked again and I think you are right they all say ER-34 (1998-2001) even on the main cars certificate of authenticity.
Intrust Games still cool cars, they’re just having an identity crisis
The Racing Joker DM on IG if you want more information.
the only thing i love about romans eclipse is the lowenhart br5 i want one
Yay it's BACK!
Woohoo!
The 2 fast eclipse was a nightmare lol . I actually bought a gsx eclipse back in the day 2 months before fast and furious even came out. I was proud when I first saw Brian's eclipse. I thought I was the shit when I left the theater 😂
“That nitrous kit would’ve sent the car into orbit” or blow out the floor pans 😂😂
For some reason yeah lol
Hey tom when will you do a nfs:porsche unleashed gameplay?
Dude what is really disappointment is the BS you said after this 6:47 without taking any context from the movie reason and why they did such thing with thoose cars, no wonder you drive a BMW. smh
Idk if all the blue skylines in the 4th film where made that way but my guess is they probably where and they had a car they would use for important shots but all those cars are not even close to real they are all chassis mounted on dune buggie frames the engine is actually in the rear. So in fact NONE of the skylines are even remotely close to real
Jesse's VW had 1 major issue. The lack of calipers
Lol
For me, the fact that they put a convertible 5th Gen Accord Wagon in the films and it got almost no screen time Is the biggest disappointment to me
A Buick Regal painted black, turbocharged, and emblemed properly with all the correct GN badging, does that make it a Grand National? Absolutely not. RPO codes are important for a reason. A GT-T or GT-S is not a GT-R.
If a car is replicated close enough that it looks, drives and feels like a higher trim model, what exactly is the difference aside from some arbitrary numbers?
Aside from resale value, what other argument is there?
Maybe it isn't a true Grand National... But if it looks like the real thing, handles like the real thing, and goes like the real thing, and is cheaper than the real thing... I'll take the replica, thankyouverymuch.
The car that disappointed me is when I learnt about Dom's charger and the whole wheelie burnout thing it did
It's kinda funky but in a racing movie the audience was definitely owed a wheelie and a burnout. Since it was the last race of the movie why not do both at once and look awesome doing it?
@@TheRacingJoker Personally I think it would’ve made more sense for Dom’s Charger to wheelstand and the Supra to burnout. Still the discrepancy between the Hero Charger and the one they used in the last scene is more disappointing than anything lol.
@@mattreynolds4488 true....or just a wheelie for the charger without the supra doing a burnout since both will have to and It was a street race after all
@@TheRacingJoker it did...but still I mean😂 but I guess that's fast and furious for ya but it's my all time favorite scene yet realistically speaking most disappointing
as well as the supercharger being fake. i think the only time it had the real engine was in the garage when he was showing brian. then they had to give the engine back as it was a loner.
In regards to the F4 R34 GTR/GTT, I’m actually thankful they didn’t use the GTR for the stunts. If I were making a film and wanted an R34 GTR in it I’d rather use a GTT with a GTR body kit rather than a actual GTR.
Yeah honestly it is what I would've done too, it's just more economical
Loved Jesse's Jetta
Is it fair to say that Jesse's character only likes euros??? With the jetta and/or m3
I think that was the intent with his character
I love the Honda S2000 you don’t see them around much
Looking at the history of Suki's car in the second movie makes you wonder how we fell for the cheap tricks in thinking these cars were nice. Two words, bath mats.
I literally call this out in my 2f2f commentary, I've got like ten mins of footage left of it before it's ready (editing right now)
i mean its only bad if someone is trying to sell you a converted gtt for gtr prices. otherwise i see no issue
How about a million dollars
Kinda sad Paul aint on earth :(
Always will be, he left behind a heck of a legacy though
Paul may not be with us but i believe he is in heaven, meeting the greats such as Senna and Mcrae
@@kronastudios8880 Most definitely he is
I thought you were going to say the GTR was an impala with body kit and bumpers.
Brian's fast 4 r34 is a GTT in movie universe so maybe the bumper was changed in order to fit with that
I'm not sure I follow, are you saying they changed the rear lights of a GTR to have GTT lights?
@@TheRacingJoker I guess it's a possibility but thinking about it it doesnt sound right
Andrew Santos it wouldn’t be economical. R34 GTRs are insanely expensive compared to GTTs
I thought that one of all the R34 in Fast and furious was a real GTR, and it was exported last minute after filming, because this GTR wasnt allowed to be in the US ?
the only reason the eclipse was in the movie is because that ws the new body style and the film was basically advertising it
I love these cars other then the Mitsubishi Spyder. Ford lightning is my bae though
Those Lightning’s are cool man
That charger was a real let down.
I personally like the Honda civic coupes. Its the front wheel drive train that turns me away from it. But that's my opinion
Well we can do awd swaps nowadays, real street is a good place to start looking
The Real Hero Car of Brian’s Blue GT-R is standing in the Motorworld in Munich and I think I could get the VIN if you’re interested. But I don’t know If you’re even Reading this so just let me know if you do, so I can answer you the VIN here. Or you are in Munich one Day, then you could check it yourself. It’s standing at the dealership named „GTA“ and I think it will be there a While since it’s standing there for over a Year and a Half now.
I really liked Brian's R34 from part 4 as it wasn't a typical fast and furious car (garish graphics)
I like it too. Personally I’d want two R34s. One garish fnf style one and another made to look like a Z-Tune
@@TheRacingJoker yeah if only r34's didn't cost so much. That's why I prefer the R33 🤣
Daaud_liverpool I have a plan to get mine that I know my followers will enjoy
@@TheRacingJoker wow. Can't wait to see 👀
Didnt craig lieberman say that only one of the fast 4 gtrs was an actual gtr its from one of his videos
Ariiq he did and he and I have spoken on the phone about it before, but I’m going to have to respectfully disagree with him because all the evidence points towards to the R34 not bring a GTR. The owner couldn’t even prove to me that the car was a GTR, and I can’t really take his word for it
@@TheRacingJoker I see thanks for he input
Dom's charger. The supercharger that sticks out of the hood is fake and the it wasn't even a hemi car so there's that.
