Wild Speed 3: Tokyo Drift Girls
The Fast and the Furious is known as "Wild Speed" in Japan. Tokyo Drift is actually one of Potemkin's favorite movies because it is just so cheesily and wonderfully awful.

Will Drifting Ever Be The Same
For good or for bad, drifting may never be the same. The official release of the film The Fast and The Furious: Tokyo Drift in theaters today will expose drifting to the masses. Just as the original The Fast and The Furious movie made the Japanese car culture widely popular among teenagers and young adults, the Tokyo Drift film will do the same for Drifting, but on a much larger scale.
Drifting is a racing technique that involves skidding through a corner sideways. It originated in the mountains of Japan more than 15 years ago and evolved into a competitive motor sport in that country before finding its way to the United States. Today, two organizations, D1 Grand Prix and Formula Drift, promote drift competitions for both amateur and professional drift drivers in the United States.

Tokyo Drift YO
Same location, corner even where we did the drifting XFR.
I prefer the drifting XFR shot, I think because it was shot early morning with softer natural light.
This shot, black car + midday sun = epic fail

GIRLS OF D1 TOKYO DRIFT
I know you guys enjoy seeing the ladies almost as much as you like the seeing the cars, so I have put together a small gallery of some of the race queens and flag girls from the D1GP Tokyo Drift event in Odaiba. While D1 is not known for its race queens like Super GT or Tokyo Auto Salon, there were still quite a few of them to be found in Odaiba.
I'm not going to spend the time to write captions for these as you probably won't even notice them. Hope you enjoy!

Tokyo Drift' Trailer
The idea: The street-racing sequel moves to Japan, where a young American expat challenges the local champ in the rubber-burning, gliding world of drift.

Watch The Fast and the Furious Tokyo Drift
In the land that gave birth to the majority of modified racers on the road, the simple street race has been replaced by the ultimate pedal-to-the-metal, gravity-defying automotive challenge -- drift racing, a deadly combination of brutal speed on heart-stopping courses with hairpin turns and switchbacks. In his first unsuccessful foray into the world of drift racing, Sean unknowingly takes on D.K., the "Drift King," with ties to the Yakuza, the Japanese crime machine. The only way Sean can pay off the debt from his loss is to venture into the deadly realm of the Tokyo underworld, where the stakes are life and death.

Tyrese is Still Fast, Still Furious
MONTREAL - Afterwards a all-important breach in Market Rap coverage, this cavalcade covers the accomplished two weeks together, a aeon of beneath animation in Asian disinterestedness markets as stocks in accepted rose although there was no accepted Asian or sub-regional arrangement of note.

The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift Car of the Day: Han's S15
The Nissan Silvia you see here is one of the "less pretty" cars of The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift. In the movie, Bow Wow compares this car to the Mona Lisa. That is because Bow Wow (or the script writers) is crazy. Blue and orange, while opposites on the color wheel (and therefore complimentary colors), just don't look good together -- especially on a car. However, this is a Fast and Furious car we're talking about, so we can't be surprised to see a car in this movie that just isn't cool.
Well... this car is a S15, so it can't be all bad. Let's get a closer look at it...
This role this Silvia plays in The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift is a bit odd, as it's an important car to the film, yet it gets trashed almost immediately. In the movie, this car is owned by the film's mentor-like character "Han". Yes, he just has one name, which makes him that much more of an enigma -- just like Prince. Anyway, Han lets the main guy -- Sean Boswell -- use this S15 in his first race against the Drift King. As we all know, Sean uses the RB-powered Mustang in his "big" race against DK, so we can comfortably say that Sean doesn't drive this car that well. In fact, Sean trashes this Nissan. This trashing of "the Mona Lisa" thoroughly upset Bow Wow... but we're sure he got over it.
As this car doesn't get a lot of screen time, the car builders at Universal really didn't spend too much time working on it. Its interior is gutted out, leaving a lone Recaro seat and a Takata harness for the driver. The rest of the interior was gutted, and custom-fabricated sheet metal was used to cover up the doors, rear package tray and more. You know, the odd shapes of factory-stamped metal just don't look good on film...
Though the shell of this S15 is the unfortunate recipient of an orange and blue paint job, it does have a few things going on for it on the outside. The coolest thing about this Silvia is the near stock-looking C-West DRFT aero kit. Other exterior touches include Modern Image graphics, a C-West-supplied GT wing and a set of Ganador mirrors. Of course the wheels get a visual upgrade in the form of some 19-inch Volk GT-7 rims wrapped in Toyo Proxes TR1 tires.
There's really not a whole lot to talk about as far as the engine is concerned. Don't let the picture fool you, we really doubt that Universal would spring for an Autch-tuned engine for a car that gets trashed. Hell, it looks like Universal didn't even spring for an S15 with the 250 horsepower SR20DET motor -- this looks to be the 165 horsepower naturally-aspirated SR20DE. This N/A SR20 looks as if it has a couple of mods, notably a tubular exhaust manifold and a N1-style exhaust, but those probably only add an additional 10 ponies at best. Still, it's not like this engine needs to be all buff because, as we already said, this car gets trashed. Besides, let's just say that, in the movie, this car's engine comes back to play a major role. What kind of role is that? Go see the movie and find out for yourself.
Before you head out to the movie theatre, be sure to check out our Media Page for more pics of this S15!

Tokyo Drift Cars
1994 Mazda RX-7 with VeilSide Fortune wide body kit. In the movie, Han dies when the car flips and explodes after wrecking into a Mercedes Benz S-Class. VeilSide built three duplicate RX-7s for the film and the Tokyo Drift shop built three aditional visual clones.
1967 Ford Mustang Fastback driven by Sean Boswell. This Mustang is unique because the power plant for the Ford is a RB26DET Nissan Skyline engine. A trend with JDM enthusiasts is to take a classic Japanese car and transplant a new high performance engine like the RB26 or SR20DET. However it is virtually unheard of to swap a JDM engine into a classic American car, making this truly a unique whip. Another interesting note is that the studio decided to go with a single turbo instead of the stock twin turbo setup.2004 Volkswagen Touran modeled after the Hulk. Twinkie owns the car and Sean drives it in the movie.
1971 Chevrolet Monte Carlo driven by Sean in the opening race scene. Wrecked during a race with Clay’s Dodge Viper and later scrapped by Pima County Sheriff Department following Sean’s arrest. Nine Monte Carlos were built for The Fast & the Furious: Tokyo Drift. Two had big-blocks and the other seven had small-block V8s or were engine-less props.
The two big-block Chevys use Hooker headers, Flowmaster mufflers, Richmond T-10 four-speed manual transmissions, Wenco driveshafts and Moser-built 12-bolt rear-ends running 4.88:1 gears in a spool differential. Both ride on a chassis fitted with Global West front control arms and coil springs, KYB shocks, Speedway Engineering anti-sway bars, Global West weight jack plates and quick-ratio steering boxes. Wilwood disc brakes sit behind the Cragar 397 steel 15-inch wheels and the tires are Goodyear stock-car specials.
2005 Dodge Viper SRT10 driven by Clay and wrecked into a concrete pipe at high speed when racing Sean in the Monte Carlo.
1998 Toyota Chaser with 5-speed transmission, C-West rear wing, Volk Racing GT-V wheels, and Toyo Proxes tires. Little is modified from stock, as the Chaser is drift ready from the factory. The Chaser features a single turbo version of the Supra’s JZ engine.
2006 Mazda RX-8 with VeilSide body kit, driven by Neela. This right-hand-drive RX-8 is lowered using Tein springs and sits on Volk Racing GT-AV wheels wrapped in Toyo Proxes tires. Under the hood a GReddy single turbo system and a Tanabe cat-back exhaust system boost power.
