And here's what you may not have known about it Japan 1, Italy 0!

Other s Movie Models. I purchased Tamiya's Supra kit with the intention of making my own custom parts to turn it into Brian's "Last Ride" from the end of Furious 7. I then learned about a transkit by ZoomOn Models: resin front spoiler, two-part BBS LMs with low profile tires, metal exhaust parts, upgraded headlights, full photoetch details, window masks, and two sets of marking sheets waterslide decals and chrome peel-and-stick. It was a little pricey, but given the variety of materials and limited production run of 80 units, it wasn't too bad. So was it worth it? The Supra was, as expected from Tamiya , fantastic. Everything fit together beautifully, and there were some very clever assemblies like the way the front of the engine merged with the chassis. Parting lines were minimal, and there was essentially no flash to worry about. The transkit was somewhat less brilliant, though admittedly the first problem was self-inflicted. I sliced off the bottom of the front bumper with no problem, but when I glued the new spoiler on I bumped it just a hair. Worse, I didn't notice that it was off until after the glue had set and there was no way to remove it without destroying the lip and possibly the front bumper. I did some measuring, though, and by adding a thin strip of plastic at the wheel opening on the "forward" side and carefully carving at the leading edge of the sweep line, I was able to get the two sides to match.

The wheels had very soft locators, both axle-to-spider and spider-to-rim, which made getting everything lined up tricky.

The Fast Saga originally focused on street racing before branching out to high-stakes global conflicts. Paul Walker portrayed Brian since 's The Fast and the Furious , appearing in six films until Walker's tragic death in Like every character across the franchise, he takes the wheel of multiple engines. He and Dom used to bicker about the two kinds of vehicles, which became a running joke in the series. Brian wasn't initially the best driver, but after teaming up with Dom, the skills obviously rubbed off. Brian went on to become one of the most talented drivers of the bunch and never backed down when it came to going toe-to-toe with Dom. The style of the vehicle correlated with the styles of the times with flashy paint jobs and customizations.

This car was driven by the late Paul Walker in the original "Fast and Furious" film, and was used for "multiple interior and exterior shots during filming," according to the listing. It was then repurposed as a car for the character Slap Jack for the sequel, "2 Fast 2 Furious," the listing said. As told by "Fast and Furious" technical advisor Craig Lieberman, who owned the Supra that formed the basis for the movie car, many leftover cars from "The Fast and the Furious" were reused for "2 Fast 2 Furious. Not every movie car looks as nice in real life as the on-screen version, but this Supra wears the Lamborghini Diablo Candy Orange pearl paint and "Nuclear Gladiator" graphics seen in the movie. That's not unusual for movie cars, as automatics are easier to deal with, and there is no need for a car to be mechanically identical to what's depicted on screen.

Since Paul Walker's tragic death, the Fast and Furious franchise has kept Brian off-screen by suggesting the character has given up his dangerous life of crime and espionage in order to raise his family with Mia. So I cut the stock pipes just behind the resonators and scratch built my own tailpipes, having them join together at a new muffler I built based on parts from the transkit and my own inventory. Please consider creating a new thread. Joined Jun 2, I think it sounds fantastic! Though it is a brief flashback, it is a reminder that Brian was an integral part of this mission and it is unlikely that Dante would overlook that fact. I was further unimpressed by the muffler. That is one badass, extremely modified supra. The Supra was, as expected from Tamiya , fantastic. Joined Oct 4, Slingshot M.

It only appears for one short scene at the end though, and is a pretty boring spec. The GH-gen Imprezas may be some of the most unloved of the lot, but they do have some memorable appearances in the Fast franchise. That being a hydraulic suspension system allowing the car to be lowered enough to duck underneath a truck.

Joined Jul 3, The lights and front spoiler were good, and I'm happy with how the finished model turned out, but for me there was too little to justify the price of the transkit. After destroying the Mitsubishi Eclipse, he needed a vehicle to repay Dom with, so he found a rusted Supra in a junkyard. It would be pretty cool to watch him drive off in the supra. There was nothing to do to save the "bad" side, either, since casting marks obliterated the sidewall detail. Piranha M. Several months ago I heard from some people on a Supra Facebook page that there would be a Supra in the 7th Fast and Furious film. Have a question, comment, or criticism about this model? The exhaust didn't look right, the seat belts and grille were write-offs, and the photoetched parts were either ill-fitting brakes , redundant badges , or not substantially better than the kit-supplied parts wipers. Probably wont happen, but a guy can dream haha. Firecracker M.
