for you trueno fans...

[theMonster]

Okay,
You goobers that always are ranting over Initial-D have got me curious enough to go rent the DVDs this weekend. I really could see no other reason to get so darned excited over an 80s model Toyota Carolla....FYI....if you don't have it, get Grand Turismo 2 and 3. It'll give ya a major woodie because the Trueno is cheap enough to use as a starter car (the first one you buy).

Sorry, about that. i meant to say afterwards that i have about 9 of them on GT3 as prizes from races =P

[OverBoostSupra]

Yes, But they are slow..lol...Sorry to be asking but what is Intial D and where can i get the "DVD". Please dont hurt me. lol

[brightsons]

Initial D is an anime series (about 39 episodes, a movie, and a tv special) based on street racing on curvy mountains. Their are only 2 legal dvds out through tokyopop in the U.S. so far. You can get fansubs and other versions off of the net if you know where to look.

Its a great series and u will enjoy it if you are into cars.

Oh yeah, a bit of advice: If u do get the Tokyopop version make sure u watch it in the japanese dubs with english subtitles. The english dub is one of the worst I have ever heard.

[maikeru]

True dat, true dat, the tokyo pop ones suck, but you can get the japanese versions of the whoe series just look online, they are region Zero so you can play them on all the dvd players around the world and they got subs too, i got them and i must say i've watched them all the way througha bout ten times, Go Fujiwara Tofu Shop!

ive got my trueno in GT3 running at over 205HP.......now ifonly i could have tofu shop decals.......lol............

[maikeru]

My Trueno, Runs 304hp, and i hope that you can apply your own decals to the cars in GT4 coming in march, or so they say.

[Joey]

If you're fans, you ought to get the Shigeno AE86 (GT3, FR Challenge prize car): 217hp @ 9500rpm, 180lb-ft. @ 7500rpm, worth Cr125,000 to sell. It's identical to the Toyota, but with a carbon fiber hood and black rims.

Those specs are only stock, too.

[maikeru]

that's the one i got, so now what J/K

[Comrade_Boris]

my trueno (the one you can buy) is my only car.......and i need more cr! lol...cant aford the beter performance upgrades.....

[Joey]

I wouldn't bother; keep the Trueno until you win the RX-7 from the Beginner FR Challenge, then race with that until you're financially well-secured. It's best not to drive cars of only romantic value at the beginning, it takes too long that way.

[danny_v_l]

very good idea i like it alot, you should paint it white and put the i-d decals on it, like these
