GT or GR?

Should be GT as the manga for it came out when it was still GT. But they might change

I m hoping for a movie version.

Why Japanese never make Initial D movie ah?

Live action you mean?

Maybe hard to film. Some of the stuff they pull off frankly impossible in real life

Go watch the anime, the real story is much better.
I stopped after the part he finished school and competed nationally though. has the anime ended yet?
*
Its ended but the spiritual successor is a new series called MF something

Takumi will be the mentor of the new hero. But from what i can see its normal street racing and its an 86 vs supercars as well. How the hero gonna even win i dont know

finale

By this time we have seen it all so really no kicks already this last race. But been following since the first season from Uni times so just stay for the end

But a nice touch was Takumi actually put to use all he learned from day one to beat a kid who's basically him from stage 1 to 2 kek. Down to the part of controlling the car when the engine blew

I was introduced with this series back in late 90s. that time ae86 was only around rm40K+

thanks to fast and furious film suddenly this manga also start famous in early 2000s

the price of fc3s fd3s ae86 ae85 all naik astronomically
*
Yup same here

THat time uni first and second stage I watched the HK dub version on VCD. Not bad the voice acting haha

Third stage onward download the fan sub already

Before the series never heard of the AE86 before haha. But saw the RX-7 FD and very rarely the FC. The FD back then quite popular, ppl refer to it as the Batman car because of a slight similarity to the Michael Keetons bat mobile

But the RX is probably dead liao thanks to new emission control. Dont know how they can make the rotary engine more efficient save making the car a hybrid of some sort

FD3S was famous back in the mid 90s, thanks to Playstation Gran Turismo game

together with Mitsu GTO, Supra, R32, R33, NSX , etc damn, those were the good old days for petrolheads

Ah the GTO

That one you can also thank Jacky Chans thunderbolt

Yes really lots of choices back then

Mitsubishi had also the FTO along with their evo. Toyota also had the Celica. Besides their Skylines Nissan also had the 180 and 300Sx

We may never see so many niche models anymore like back then
