The first part of the now cult Fast and Furious series is considered by many to be its best part and was also behind the rise of worldwide interest in tuning , whether mechanical or visual. From time to time some of the cars that fans remember from the movie screen appear on auction portals. And this is also the case with this Integra GS-R , which shined in the first part.
You can even remember her in one of the first scenes of the whole movie , namely the race where Vin Diesel aka Domini Toretto in a red Mazda RX-7 and Paul Walker aka Brian O'Connor in a green Mitsubishi Eclipse faced each other for the first time. In addition to the two protagonists, the race featured a white Honda Civic and a red Acura Integra driven by Ja Rule alias Edwin.
The basis of a proper car from the early years of the Fast and the Furious is proper visual differentiation from the competition – that's why the Integra received a complete bodykit from Wings West RS Racing, white Momo GT wheels and distinctive red-yellow paintwork. In the interior, there is an obvious bet on anatomical Momo seats , new pedals and a larger number of speakers. By the way, Bill Kohl and Samko Racing Enterprises are behind building this thing.
A few changes also took place under the hood – the V-TEC petrol 18-cylinder got a modified throttle valve, adjustable cams, an intake cam from the Type-R model, DC Sports heads and exhaust, or better ignition, which certainly raised the output from the stock 170 hp. The unit works with a five-speed manual gearbox , which is assisted by a racing clutch with a lightweight flywheel.
Although film studios usually make several similar cars so that they can be replaced in the event of an accident, according to the seller, this Acura is the only remaining copy from the filming . It has 32,000 miles on it and the current owner claims that he can include complete documentation (proving its provenance) with the car, including photos from the shoot. Additionally, the dashboard features the original signature of rapper Ja Rule . Currently, the price is 50,000 dollars (approx. 1.1 million crowns), the eBay auction ends in 2 days and 7 hours.
