So the vehicles could be registered in the United States, the defendants allegedly put bogus 17-digit Vehicle Identification Numbers (VIN) on the cars in place of the actual Nissan VIN plate. After arriving at Kaizo’s warehouse, several of the car bodies were allegedly then mated back with their original drive-trains and sold to the public. Despite Kaizo’s public claims, the bodies themselves had not been modified to comply with Department of Transportation regulations, according to investigators. Quote HSI investigators allege, as part of the scheme, the Skylines were imported in two shipments-the car body in one container and the vehicle drive-train in another. Kaizo Industries dismantled R34s in Japan, imported the parts to the US pretending they were kit cars (to get around safety and emissions standards) and then reassembled them in the US. It's actually a kit car, made of the Nissan R34 Skyline GT-R chassis, imported by Kaizo Industries, and given a Nissan RB26DETT engine swap. Whether its a GTS or a GTR the damn thing is still a beaut! If you have the original movie on DVD you can listen as the director said that they used the Skyline 25GT-T with GTR bodykit to cut costs and don't destroy some real GTRs and because being rear wheel drive the GT-T was better for skidding in curves. In the 'Quarter Mile' Race at the start, after Dom ram's Brian's Skyline Coming out of the Turn, you can clearly see that the Gauges are from a RB25 or RB20 Equipped car, as the one's on the GT-R are Completely Different.ĮDIT: Taking a look at the movie again, All the Gauge shots are from a GT-T Well i guess it is a GTR cos the the '99 to '01 Model Skyline for have one reverse lamp and one forlamp and cos this Skyline is 2002 model so im guessing it have two reverse lamp. RDS wrote There Are A Reverse Lamp In The Left & ForLamp In The Right, It It's A Real GT-R ! How did he manage to make one GT-T out of three GTRs? I'm pretty sure he used the new GTR to go get lunch and that's about it. The license plate is 3DHI832 if u wanna noe. Vin Diesel's Charger was driven by Paul Walker at the nearly end of the film the got the same license plates as the Skyline. There Are A Reverse Lamp In The Left & ForLamp In The Right, It It's A Real GT-R ! The Stunt Car Is Include GTS, GT-Turbo, Auto, Manual, 2.0, 2.5. It Has A Real BNR34 ! But All The Stunt Car Is ER34. The car was stolen from its owners shop right after the movie came out and has never been recovered.Īctually. Skid wrote Apparently it was actually a Skyline GTS cloned into a GT-R. This is a beautiful car and is shame that it gets blown up and tragically replaced with a f*cking gay arse subaru pile of sh!t The car was stolen from its owners shop right after the movie came out and has never been recovered.
