alex it is actually dark green look at wikipedia

whoever posted this thing is fuckin retarted….the engine put into the mustang was an inline six from a heavely modded nissan silvia!!!…and the mustang was not green….it was black!

I drove an 85 Buick LeSabre Limited Collector’s Edition. Still driving it to this day. Car just rolled the 100k mark not too far back. And Yes, its 100k Actual.

Just what we need, a Nissan powered ‘tang. What’s next a Morris Minor with a super-charged Audi engine ?

The car is likely a 67, the differences were the side “c” scoops which were louvered in 67 and smooth in 68, 67’s did not have side marker lights, which became federally mandated on all 1968 model year vehicles and therefore present on 68 Mustangs, and 67’s had a 3-spoke steering wheel with large center pad, while the 68’s had a horizontal bar style with a horn ring. The other major difference is that 67’s had a horzontal bar across the grille while 68’s had simply the pony and corral. This car has Shelby style side scoops so that cue is null and void, same thing goes for the steering wheel and grille. That leaves the remaining cue the fact that this car does not have the side marker lights, unless of course they were shaved for a cleaner look. So, in the end, it could still be a 68.

As for the movie, the Silvia that the engine was removed from was a highly modified drift car owned by Hahn, which Shawn wrecks in his first foray into drifting. After DK and his crew attack Hahn’s shop and Hahn is killed, the cops seize everything except the wrecked Silvia out back. Shawn and his crew then grab Shawn’s dad’s Mustang and the RB26 Skyline motor to create the ultimate drift car for Shawn’s final loser-leaves-town mountain race against DK.

I am a hardcore Mustang enthusiast and when I first heard of this car being built before the movie came out, I thought it was blasphemy. However, in the context of the movie, I thought it made perfect sense considering small or big block V8 parts probably arent exactly plentiful in Tokyo, and they had a donor car to do the swap.

I probably wouldnt attempt this swap myself unless I had a ton of support from people who know both cars well. Though of course people drop fuel injected 5.0 Mustang engines into the classics all the time, so I can’t see the principle being tremendously different.

Does no one notice “The Fast and The Furious: Tokyo Drift” sticker on the front windsheild. Clearly it’s the movie car. The studio doesn’t care if it’s the right engine name or not, they will name it what ever they want. NO ONE GIVES A S*** ABOUT THE REAL SPECS IN THE MOVIE.

who cares whats its got for stickers !! my 89 chevy z24 has a 427 sticker on it dont mean its has it dumbasses !! for the record i dont really have that sticker on my car..it has a vaginatarian sticker really if you must know? dont mean its veggys either lol.. anyways back to the issue, its a mustang for those who are fans of true AMERICAN muscle an i say that with much agression, its one of the most recognized AMERICAN, nostalgic, made history 10fold, reinventing automobiles on earth fuck the ricers an all they stand for AMERICAN muscle gets built an driven, stored away ricers get driven an junked. im a ford first an chevy 2nd fan a bad ride beats a good walk i say .whoever inbreeded this car should be never be around me breathing my air ,, i am insulted, my father didnt work in auto industry (ford)for over 45 years for this crap bunch of bs

its the idea of a jdm and muscle togather that makes the car only real jdm enthusiest get it so that car is sick as fuck fuck the v8 WAIST OF GASSSS

yeah that was an RB pulled from that S15 not an SR20. The S15 they had in the movie i think was someones shop car so it already had a RB26 in it and not a SR20
