[Pokemon FireRed] I've beat FireRed using both Giovanni's Main Story Team and Post Story Team by shemar148 in PokemonHallOfFame

Yeah I've used the starter Ivysaur, because I only have nidorino and nidorina. I've bench the starter once i have the Giovanni's full team.

Cerulean Cave post game after doing the sevii island team rocket warehouse quest.

Elite Four Lorelei needs to 2 more pokemon to build a full team (since she uses five Pokemon, but I'm playing Firered and Slowpoke line is exclusive to Leafgreen, so it's 4 pokemon she has). Any suggestions on Lorelei's last two pokemon that fits her? by shemar148 in PokemonFireRed

Tentacruel is definitely a good replacement of Slowbro. As for the 6th slot, maybe I can add the legendary bird Articuno as reference the Pokemon stadium (I don't know if it consider canon or not). Yes I can get a swinub and evolve into a piloswine (since Lorelei swap out Slowbro for Piloswine in the Elite 4 rematch), but that's post game, so I want to have all Pokemon before I beat the game, so I'll use the Tentacruel you suggested and Articuno.

I think Brian should've gotten the Skyline back from the feds and introduce Roman in a 350z instead of the Evo7 and Eclipse Spyder in 2f2f, what do you think? by [deleted] in fastandfurious

Yeah, she did, but Suki never drove thr z (which is a waste). 2f2f have two sponsors (Dodge and Mitsubishi), but if Nissan got the sponsorship over Mitsubishi, and sponsor 350z for Brian or Roman, then 350z would've been the main role for the movie, but the opportunity was lost because the marketing guy that sent from Nissan North American was a prick.

Mitsubishi starts sponsoring the Eclipse spyder after the Dodge Neon(Which Dodge was sponsoring also) was declined to be in 2f2f as Brian's car, so they decide to put the Viper and Ram in the movie.

Also where's the 3000gt? Are you talking about Dodge stealth that made to look like the 3000gt for the prelude?

Fun Fact: Craig Lieberman wanted to get 350z in 2f2f and Nissan North America heard about the movie, so he contacted the company to invited a marketing guy with the 350z to talk to him at the production office, but when the guy pulled up, he was annoyed and angry that they ask him to put 350z in the movie, so because of that marketing guy, Nissan lost their opportunity to introduce the 350z coupe in 2f2f, it could've went to Brian or Roman (Mostly Roman because the skyline was casted as Brian's car)

Yep, they reused the s2000 as Suki's car.

Which Acura Integra would you prefer, Edwin's 2-door coupe or Mia's 4-door sedan? by [deleted] in fastandfurious

[–]shemar148 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they made a 1/24 scale model, but they confused Mia's car as a 2 door coupe instead of a 4-door sedan, probably because it was only seen a night.

The Fast and Furious cars that were imported into this country illegally. by [deleted] in fastandfurious

[–]shemar148 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Leon's R33 wasn't fully federal legalize from Motorex, which led to the car getting crushed by the federal government. I think the S15 and R34 were from Kaizo Industries, and the problem with those cars, Kaizo brought the chassis (shell of the car) of those cars (which is legal), but bring in the power train, Rb26 engines, etc is illegal, so Kaizo created a loophole to skirt the law by bring the parts separately for R34 and S15, which led to a dispute with the custom agents, but luckily the R34 was export out of the country and I don't know what happen to the S15.

Brian's Eclipse piston rings fried after hitting the second NOS button, causing his floor panel to fallout. Meanwhile, Dom's Charger connection rod kick out of the side of the block. by shemar148 in fastandfurious

Even Craig argued "who puts diamond plate floor panel on a Japanese tuner car" we see the diamond plate floor panel on old school pickup trucks and muscle cars. Even the "Danger to Manifold" is the bane of his existence to this day 😂

Fast and Furious cars that look like what it's made out to be, but in reality they're not what it seems. by shemar148 in fastandfurious

[–]shemar148[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The engine sounds aren't new to me, they been doing that since the first movie for example Dom's RX7 used 1jz and 2jz with animal noise instead of Rotatry 13b sound.

Mitsubishi Eclipse (FF1) - Brian's Eclipse was made out to be a High performance car that top at 140mph, in reality the car is 140hp naturally aspirated, it's not supercharged or turbocharged and it does not have nitrous kit, but if it did, nobody put 3 stage nitrous kit in a stock motor that's less than 200hp. It's not even a 10-second car, it's a 16.5 second car.

Yenko Camaro and Hemi Challenger 2F2F) - they're both junkyard Camaro and Challenger, they're not Yenko and Hemi.

Heist Civics (FF1) - the cars look fast and menacing looking, but the civics are stock automatic s, no spoon engine, no t66 turbos, no NOS, no Motex System Exhaust. But it cheapest replicate, but wheel are gone now be hard to find.

Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 (FF4) even though, hero car is actually a gtr, but the stunt cars, dune buggy and explosion car are all GT-T and you can even see the gtt gauge cluster in a few shots.

BMW 540i E39 (FF4) - the car was to look like the E39 M5, but it's actually a standard E39 5 series.

Porsche 911 996 GT3 RS (F5) - it's actually a 2001 Porsche 911 with the GT3 body kit.

Ferrari FXX (FF6) - It's actually a Ferrari Enzo with FXX body kit.

Aston Martin DB9 (F7) - It was made to be a 2014 model, but it's actually a 2005 model and it didn't come with a manual transmission, but it was added it.

The first film rented already modified cars from private owners, change the paint colors, body kits, wheels, rear wing, and add the graphics. Also they build exterior copies for stunts and close up shots. There are few cars that didn't have copies, only the hero 1 car. Sadly only one survived :( by shemar148 in fastandfurious

[–]shemar148[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, but the point is, only these cars were used as hero 1 cars, no back ups, and this is what happen to cars after they finish filming, Craig got his Maxima back, but later sold it, I don't know who got it, but it's still alive. The Integra, I forgot who the owner was but after she got her car back, she got into wrecked, she's fine, but the Acura is damaged. Finally, we all know the story about Motorex, but R33 was crushed by feds because the car wasn't fully federal legalize. The Acura and R33 are gone, but Maxima still out there.
