    even at just a car i never understood why so many people go the route of crushing them cause a lot of people would be looking for just a shell to build into what they want to build it too a lot of people will part cars out due to minimal rust. Its almost like some people just want to make sure there are less and less of them 20 years from now lol the only reasons our cool cars are getting rare is because people treat everything like shit and scrap so many good cars and chassis.

    SR20 swaps were pretty rare in the early 00's. I still remember seeing my first S13 SR-swapped video. It was a red hatch that was blowing away every car it raced. By Aug 2004 I bought my white S13 hatch for $750 with a barely running engine.
    Just an F.Y.I. it was Bimmerforums. BMW cars are called Bimmers. BMW motorcycles are Beamers.

      It was very rare outside of those two states at the time. The JDM importers setup shop in thode 2 states for obvious reasons. The red 240 I cited in my original post was from FL.
      I'm 46. I went through it from the beginning. Here in Maryland, they were very rare. SR swaps were pretty expensive, too, due to all the parts needed to get one running in the US chassis. Front clips were much more preferred.
      I joined 240SX-specific forums in early 2004 and distinctly remember how few of the members had SR swaps. Why? Because I needed to do a swap in my 240 because I bought it with a blown engine.

    Great explanation at the end! It’s the greed of movie production companies why the fast movies are not about cars anymore. We diehard car enthusiasts are such a small group of viewers compared to the rest of the world. It doesn’t make as much money when it’s solely about the cars. So, sadly there will never be another movie strictly about cars.

    Back in 2016 I was a senior in high school and I was falling in love with JDM cars. I found a guy who had an SR20DET swapped Zenki with a Kouki front swap. He was asking $6500 and I was a broke high school student so I borrowed some from my mom and traded my Oldsmobile 😂 I no longer own that car and I've been looking on marketplace and a similar car goes for $20k now. Insane how the JDM market has inflated so much

    Craig, is there anywhere to acquire/pay for production stills from the movie(s)? I've seen them in your videos and littered around the Internet for near 15 years. A lot of them are genuinely neat and frame-on-wall worthy. As an art collector, car enthusiast, and photographer of 27 years I was curious so any and all info would be appreciated.
    Uploads other than yours (e.g, online print stores or Pinterest) have really sh!tty pixelated ones I wouldn't bother with.

    Kind of like "The 390 Mustang GT Fastback from Bullitt Mustang. I never actually seen the Movie, Just viewd the speed Chase with the Stunt Jumps. The Bullitt Mustang was lost for 45 years and Sold Unrestored as how Steve McQueen left it in 1974 Movie. when the movie was filmed in 1973 for 1974 movie release. It was $3,395 each from the Manufacture Price and 2 cars were Purchases. On Both they spent $8,000 on Brackets were welded for Cameras, and the Shock Towers reinforcement front and rear. For both cars For Jumping it in the movie. 9 different jumps each time going Farther. The Stunt car 1 was basically destroyed, bent, and went to it a Mexican Junkyard and considered destroyed. They restored to New Condition, not too valuable because of where it still is. Restored with a different frame The Second Survivor that Steve Tried Buying in 1976 the Son of the owner brought it out to sell in Auction. It sold for $3.4 Million. After 45 years it was available to be seen.
    As Mentioned how much was Spent..$8,000 per Mustang to strengthen the Frame and add Camera Brackets, plus the price of the Cars was over $11,400. In1975 you can buy a 3 bedroom house in Los Angeles was $12,000 and Minimum wage was Like $2.00 per hour To put it in perspective the following below is what different Luxuries Cost in 1975
    Back then Cadillac was $5,000 / Ferrari $16,000, Mansions $25,000. Steve McQueen offered in 1976, with a suitcase full of Cash $38,000 to buy the Bullitt Mustang. $38,000 was more than a Hollywood Mansion and 2 Cadillacs, back in 1975.
    The Bullitt Mustang was Sold win the year 2020 like 2 weeks before. 2 weeks before Social Distancing on January 2020 Before "Corona Virus OutBreak" COVID-19👨🏻👍🏻🏎️🏁🚩

    Hi, Craig. I really enjoy your videos, especially the ones where you talk about the vehicles from The Fast and the Furious 1, because for me, it was the best movie of them all. I find it amazing that you talk about all the vehicles in this movie. I’d also love it if you could tell us something about the motorcycles featured in this movie (The Fast and the Furious 1). I’d like to know more about these motorcycles, for example, the sport bikes used to intercept the Mitsubishi Eclipse, and the enduro bikes that are used in the chase scene with the Toyota Supra at the end of the movie. It would be incredible to know if you were involved in this process in any way. And anything related to these motorcycles would be great. Your videos are awesome. Keep making more content like this. Greetings from Bogotá, Colombia.
