AlexJames Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Hey Guys, A while back there was a post up here about a film that was made in japan about a typicle 'midnight club' racer... Story Line He used to drive a MkIII, got beaten by some guy in a R33, so he brought a MKIV .... there was about 19 links on youtube to watch it... the dude driving the MkIV goes through some kinda 'life crisis' cause his best friend died in a race of some sort... Thats about all I can remember. Does anyone know the name of it cause i wanna download it for real, it was actually an ok film.. if u can be bothered to read the subtitles... Anyone?

adnanshah247 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 dont believe i heard of this one but seems good, would also like to know its name. i know of thunderbolt but are there any other japanese movies like that with serious tuned up japanese motors, and also no i dont anything like 'fast and furious'.

AlexJames Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 Humm, i dont think thats it.. it had a propper jap title as well, something I could never pronounce! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benkei Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 The only thing I can think of is Wangan Midnight - which is an anime about a guy who buys a cursed Fairlady Z and races against a few people, including a guy in a black 911. Either that, or there's 'Metropilis Expressway Trial' or 'Freeway Speedway' (The same series of 6 Japanese films under different names). I haven't managed to see them yet, they're rare as rocking horse sh*t! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loks Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 I bought my copies from a back street dvd shop here in Hong Kong. They are indeed a series and I have the following: 1. Shuto Kousoku Trial 1 2. Shuto Kousoku Trial 2 3. Shuto Kousoku Trial 3 4. Shuto Kousoku Trial Max There maybe more? Don't ask what is on which one as it is a while since I watched them. Anyone know of a good software that can rip them and which format to make them? Where would be a safe place to upload these files to? *Edit* Just checked and the movie about the MKIII to MKIV is the "Max" version Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loks Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 The 2nd one there from Ebay is the one the original poster is after. The cover is the same as the one I have here except they have superimposed an R34 onto it that's all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
