The next car to be used in THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS 2

1999 Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec :

















Current status:
515 Horsepower @ 7,800 rpm on race gas
405 Horsepower @ 7.800 rpm on pump gas
Maximum engine speed = 9,300 rpm
0-60 in 3.5 seconds ( <------- YIKES ! )
0-100 in 10.5 seconds
1/4 mile in 11.2 seconds at 119 mph
Top speed = 198 mph
Skid-pad = 1.02 G'as
Slalom time = 67 mph
Curb weight = 3,410 lbs.
(Road & Track figures, July 2001 issue, tested with this exact car)


Not too sure about that wing, though ...

Where does it say that this car will be in the f&f 2??? I could have swore that all it said was that the owner was the technical advisor to the movie. still a very nice car and i think the wing actually goes good with the car.

<< The car was purchased as a replacement for Lieberman's 1994 Toyota Supra, which served as the star's car in the movie "The Fast and The Furious." This car is being built as a principle vehicle for the planned sequel to that movie but will also play a primary role in a major TV series under development now. >>

If they make a TV show with it I hope its not like that show "Viper" and end up with some stupid futuristic car that does all this stuff like rockets and guns. Dont get me wrong I liked to watch the show and all, but it was a bit overdone.

Just my $1.53.

It is a Twin Turbo car hence two intakes I guess - and Skylines are legal in the US...Motorex imports them
