shuto kousoku is a pretty cool series of wangan racing movies with Keiichi Tsuchiya in them.
I'm looking for more car stuff to watch / read, so I thought I'd start with a few I know and hopefully learn some new titles from you guys.
Initial D - We all know it. Takumi Fujiwara delivers Tofu in his dad, Buntas, AE86. Bunta teaches Takumi what he knows about street racing without takumi knowing. Soon he is pulled into the street racing scene and much racing ensues.
Over Rev - After tearing her achilles tendon and her dream of becoming a track star, Ryoko Shino decides to become a street racer and buys an AW11 from a wreckers. The story shows Ryokos gradual development as a driver and shows a more realistic life of street racing than Initial D.
Wangan Midnight - That game people play at the arcades. It was a manga originally and has an anime and movie. I haven't seen any of them yet.
The Legend of speed - A Hong Kong movie about street racing. I haven't seen it yet.
Fast and Furious 1 - 4 - The movies that made street racing cool in America. An outsider comes onto the street racing scene where he gets some big street cred. Eventually he has to bust some gangstaz using his street connections and his sweet ass driving skillz.
Running on Empty - Mike with his Phase III XY Falcon is challenged to three races with Fox, the fastest racer around. After losing the first round Mike and his crew head decide they need some cash to make the car faster and head out into the country, where good and bad times are had.
High Octane - is a fun one, Ketzel Sterling from NZ reppin' similiar to topgear but based on imports only 6 movie length dvds tho
vanishing point - not much story except for a strung out kowolski taking a bet he could deliver a dodge challenger R/T to LA in under 12hrs.
pretty good as 90% is kowolski screaming along the road at about 120mph listening to some blind black DJ...
love the beast - i like this a lot, i related to it very much. its about the relationship eric bana has with this XB coupe.
gone in 60sec - if you havent seent this then your probably dead.
Wangan Midnight - anime is pretty good. ive watched the whole series and loved it. old movie is ok, new movie is awesome visually
initial d - only watched the anime after i got an ae86. i thought it was pretty lame until 4th stage. 4th stage was good because it just focused on racing and not all the other bs. ive been reading the manga for 5th stage and its as good as 4th stage. takumi's ae86 gets a roll cage, frp hatch, bigger brakes, neg offset wide watanabes. the car doesnt look as lame as it did
Initial D was better with the orignal version in chinese not the tokyo POP dubbed american version - "OMG thats a True en oh"
You mean Japanese?
I'm searching out these movies now. Looking forward to the watching.
they are so funny, a must see if you want to lol
