Bright orange Veilside Fortune kitted RX7 in Bristol last week....

[VishalStar]

Meant to post this a few days ago but spotted a real life Veilside Fortune kitted RX7 driving through Bristol town centre last week. Same paintjob as the RX7 from the Tokyo Drift movie. Looked amazing!!
 
I remember seeing the film and thinking it looked stunning but the pictures seem to have always divided attention on these forums. However I would like to say it simply looks unbelievable in the flesh! Was it anyones on here?

[slingo]

yep its mine ! well i wish it was ....true on the divided opinion but see them in the flesh and there awsome from every angle !

 57 gramlight dishu\'s

A guy in Bristol called Lumdogmillionaire owns it.

Thats the one I MOT\'d about a month ago, the workmanship is
very good indeed.

Yep thats Lums. I had the pleasure of driving it a few weeks ago. Very tidy rex, well looked after, the paintwork is immaculate and the bodywork is the genuine Veilside. He\'s on the look out for a set of Andrews to go on it, but they\'re not easy to come by due to the silly offset needed to fill those arches!

Just seen this thread... Tis indeed my car & is currently recieving some choice upgrades to hopefully give it the power that the looks deserve!
Should be back stalking the streets again soon :-)

:Thumbs-upDid you sort your camber problem on the skybus out

[SleepyDude]

Always said it needed more power. When my dad and Jason began on the project they were looking at putting in the engine from a cosmo lol

really great to see this car is getting looked after hope to see it again one day lol

[VishalStar]

Seems like a very well known car!
 
The power upgrades sound good, Ive read a review that some US import magazine ran, they said the same thing whilst reviewing the actual car used in the filming for Tokyo Drift.
 
Lum you lucky bloke! Would be great to get a closer look before you start stalking the streets of Bristol again. Probably the closest I will get to Hollywood (or should that be Tokyo?)!lol

Snapped the rear subframe mate!


Yeah im currently putting a single turbo on the car & a few other bits and pieces so hopefully will have the sort of power output the looks deserve!



Car is currently being stored/worked on in the showroom at the front of Protyre Bristol so anyones welcome to pop down and take a look!
