Japanese dialogue with english subtitles available, I'm pretty sure they also have chinese subtitles available. I ordered some from him on the 20th and he says they should be here soon... |

here's a question... why would a show that's dubbed in japanese have japanese subtitles? yea...that's what they thought. those fools at the shop are just trying to make you buy from them. | ||

Yup, i'd rather have that engine than of changing takumi's car say into a celica or a newer corolla. Its an all-motor engine with an output of 250hp. High rev unit- 11,000rpm cutoff. Imagine it can stand up against blown (turbo-charged) motors, almost all his oponents except the Nissan Q and the Eg hatch, have blown motors. | ||

Even if they are good quality. The official Japanese DVDs i've seen have no english subtitles at all. And Anime International is based in China. I am of course human and could be wrong. But those are good quality DVDs if that is all you are after. |

Shmuck Group: Members Posts: 2 Member No.: 1,742 Joined: May 1st 2004 Location: Update Profile | Those dvds at jackadeal are definately bootleg Hong Kong dvds. Not that there is any problem with that. It's better than watching TP's version. Uhh, and the stupid rap music, I just abhor TP now, at least they can't change the music in their manga . Anywho, you can get the same Hk discs from eDVDStore I have bought from them before, and they seem reliable, I never had any problems with them. But the main difference is that they blow jackadeals prices away. I hope this helps somebody. |

unless it's the 4A-GZE 20-valve engine, i think it would probably put out close to 150 hp. Pro Spirit in Japan has a Trueno Levin as an R&D car, it's putting out 204 hp@8500rpm, not sure if that's at the wheels or the crank. | ||

I read all of this FAQ. You wont see me asking stupid question. |

Shmuck Group: Members Posts: 9 Member No.: 2,743 Joined: Aug 21st 2004 Location: Update Profile | Hello all, I recently discovered Initial D (picked up the 3 volume Book set that's on sale at RadioShack). So far I only know the story from reading the books (Vol1, 2 and 3) and from watching the TP DVD versions disk 1 and 2. I've gone through the FAQs and still have a few questions, please bear with me if these are already covered. 1. The books are released by TP (supposedly 100% Manga) and have 13 volumes, with a 14th coming soon. Where in the storyline, compared to the shows/DVDs, do the books coincide? 2. I've been reading a LOT about how TP isn't keeping with the original Japanese versions. Can anyone give more specifics? Is it only a matter of cutting out some scenes? Or are we talking totally different animations and such? Thanks! |
