Marky_Baby:
finally got a new keyboard, as i have been meaning to reply to this thread since it was like 8 pages long haha

anyway, great to see the latest of episodes of 4th stage to be released, hopefully that'll silence the doubters...

a couple of things i think i wanted to hit on, if i can remember, i didnt like seeing links to other groups fansubs on this thread, i thought it was a bhit disrespectful to L-E, whose subbing we all know has been head and shoulders above the rest, as well as some of the comments that followed along the lines of who needs L-E!!!

Anyway i think that was my only little rant i'd been wanting to make,

And also, props to Live-Evil and their work on the subbing, as i'm sure there is plenty of time and effort that go into these, especially when the most you ever get is the odd little shout out like this, which for ll the expectancy of you, isn't very much. But on behalf of myself, girlfriend :p and everyone who doesn't sign up to these forums but wuld like to say something, THANK YOU!!!


ps, i'm moving house soon, but once i get my connection installed i'm willing to seed episodes for you :) i know its not much, but hit back if your interested.

Cheers ^_^

chAi - about the Tach's...it has to be the same one Bunta had on reserve because they got it from the same dude, they called all sorts of auto stores and what not and couldn't get an aftermarket tach that went past 9k..you'll note Bunta didn't tell Takumi how far he could rev it until the work was done, and Takumi felt one thing, 'that the car was making power right when he had to shift' so they had to go shopping for a tach that goes past 9k...which, at least stateside, is very expensive and must be special ordered...also, the fact that they ended up calling Bunta's mechanic implies thats what Bunta was going to put it in the car, go back and watch the ep and you'll see them try to get it from other places, and end up getting this guys "last one"...at least thats what I think, maybe these tachs are readily available in Japan and the sub I watched was really bad...but more than likely if you correllate it with real life he got the same one his dad ordered...

about the rev limiting....go watch episode 4 again, Ryosuke tells him not to look back for many reasons.  Among those reasons one is so he can focus on his driving, he has to focus on his driving because he has to shift up at 9k, no tach will stop you from going to the redline...esp not an aftermarket tach so rev limiting is something Takumi did with his right foot, which is why he is still so freaking amazing, thats really hard to do especially when your opponent is right on your ass...

finally we get to the topic of ECUs...first and foremost when they CHANGED THE ENGINE out of his car they HAD to install a new ECU.  Basically the ECU has maps for what the engine needs at what speeds and it monitors if something is going wrong (knocking, etc.).  I'm pretty sure there is always some stupid electrical trick you can do to piggyback no matter how old the technology is (maybe instead of piggy backing you add a standalone instead, who knows)

Sooooo how long before we can start clamoring for episodes 7 & 8?...  joking

Dont care when as long as i eventually get to see 14 great episodes from stage 4.  

Holy cow, you mean that girl was dating that old guy?  Because of bad subs, at first i thought her dad was some perv, then i figured that it was some sick thing where japanese hookers treated tricks like their fathers.  I think she was a hooker though, even if its translated that they were dating.  Its one of those things where you gotta read between the lines.  The guy was like dont leave me i'll give you more money.  And then she gets a "real/legal" job.  As funny as that is, thats real.

hippopotomoose:
Oh yea and props, mad love, and mo fire to all the Live eviL fam.  Puttin in work OT, stay grindin... ya heard!
