Here's my question...

Its a two parter one is easy one not so easy...

What film is this pimped MG from?



Part Two.. For the gaming folk.

I recently went to a virtual mgf reborn on a famous console and vamped my car up.

My new horse power is 377bhp
How much did it all cost?

The mods I had done were as follows:

Changed the wheels
painted it a different colour

carried out stage 1 tuning
carried out stage 2 tuning
carried out stage 3 tuning

installed an uprated ECU
Installed a sports intake manifold
Installed a race air filter
Installed a titanium race exhaust
Installed a sports exhaust manifold
Installed a sports cat

installed a stage 3 turbo kit
installed a fully customisable gearbox

installed a twin plate clutch
Installed a semi racing flywheel
installed a fully customisable LSD

Installed a fully customisable suspension kit

installed race soft tyres

337HP at the moment... Still some potential.

And how many credits did all this lot cost?

BEFORE



AFTER




Good Luck!

The photo is from the 2007 film Norbit, starring Eddie Murphy who is married to Eddie Murphy :lol:

As I don't have any game consoles I guess this is from a game available on the XPS123BOXWii

How many credits :-? ....errr 10 ...no no.....67,000,000 .... :slapme:

Think I'd better leave part 2 for the younger generation :lol:

OK so the game is Gran Turismo 5 available on the PS3.

You asked;

How much did it all cost?

The mods I had done were as follows:

Changed the wheels ?
painted it a different colour ?

carried out stage 1 tuning 2,500
carried out stage 2 tuning 15,000
carried out stage 3 tuning 30,000

installed an uprated ECU 1,000
Installed a sports intake manifold 2,500
Installed a race air filter 250
Installed a titanium race exhaust 10,000
Installed a sports exhaust manifold 3,500
Installed a sports cat 500

installed a stage 3 turbo kit 20,000
installed a fully customisable gearbox 20,000

installed a twin plate clutch 2,500
Installed a semi racing flywheel 500
installed a fully customisable LSD 7,500

Installed a fully customisable suspension kit 15,000

installed race soft tyres 36,000

337HP at the moment... Still some potential.

And how many credits did all this lot cost?


No owning Gran Turismo 5 or knowing anyone who owns it made this a bit of a challenge, I have indicated the price of each mod I could find above which comes to;

166,750 excluding new wheels and a respray.

So I'll guess :dry: ....wheels ?...... 20,000 and for the respray :-? ...10,000

Total 196,750 :nofight:

Having read a bit about this game I think I want one .....ebay .... what was it called again ..... a PS3 ...and GT5 :drive:
