All the cars from tokyo Drift.

Not really my thing but the TT'd black/grey 350z looks interesting. If the blue/orange S15 was resprayed i am sure it would be a good car and there is the GTR engined Mustang.

Can't see them being bargains though.

You won't be able to sva any of them. Maybe the RX7's if they are over 10 years old.

[pedantmode]Wasn't it SR20 powered? Motor from Silvia he smashed up early in movie(assuming the actual car is consistent with movie storyline, but it did look like and SR20 when they dropped it in)[/pedantmode]


The cars will probably be bought by uber-chavs with too much money

Only going on what I heard on fifth gear, so may well be rubbish. They said a 'Skyline GTR' engine had to be used as the V8 wasn't suitable for drifting.
Given the number of technical errors in last weeks (the 335 article in particular) episode I wouldn't stake my life on it being correct.

"V8 not suitable for drifting" rofl more like V8 not suitable for appealing to the jap import obsessive U.S ricers the movie is aimed at, or the sponsors of the movie who like selling go-fast bits for Jap turbomotors...



Given that Rhys Millen, stunt driver for the movie and one of the US's top drifters, competes in a Pontiac GTO/Monaru iirc

You can bet they ain't.

People have been importing 350Z's though confused


I know you can bring in RX8's and 350z with ease as long as they don't have any mods.

Technical error in movie, in looked like an RB26DETT (champagne-gold rocker cover form N1/Nür spec). But they said it came from the S15, so it should have been the SR20. scratchchin Funny, if this is right, there should have been a RB26DETT in the S15 bounce
Okay, i'm a nerd
