Cool Honda Commerical!

[Meister]

Dude this is cool! Check it out!

http://www.daboyz.org/honda/


New Honda Commercial in the U.K.
There are no computer graphics or digital tricks in the film.
Everything you see really happened in real time exactly as you see it.
The film took 606 takes. On the first 605 takes, something, usually
very minor, didn't work. They would then have to set the whole thing
up again. The crew spent weeks shooting night and day.

The film cost six million dollars and took three months to complete,
including a full engineering of the sequence. In addition, it's two
minutes long so every time Honda airs the film on British television,
they're shelling out enough dough to keep any one of us in clover for
a lifetime. However, it is fast becoming the most down loaded
advertisement in Internet history.

Honda executives figure the ad will soon pay for itself simply in
\"free\" viewings (Honda isn't paying a dime to have you watch this
commercial!). When the ad was pitched to senior executives, they
signed off on it immediately without any hesitation-including the
costs.

There are six and only six handmade Accords in the world. To the
horror of Honda engineers, the filmmakers disassembled two of them to
make the film. Everything you see in the film (aside from the walls,
floor, ramp, and complete Honda Accord) are parts from those two cars.

When the ad was shown to Honda executives, they liked it and commented
on how amazing computer graphics have gotten. They fell off their
chairs! when they found out it was for real. Oh! And about those funky
windshield wipers. On the new Accords, the windshield wipers have
water sensors and are designed to start doing their thing
automatically as soon as they become wet. It looks a bit weird in the
commercial.

Just one-second of computer generation is used to link the two
halves-when an exhaust pipe rolls across the floor. At one point,
three tires roll uphill because inside they have been weighted with
bolts and screws.

Go to! this website and watch the commercial

i guarentee that if that was a crapalier or a ****stain or some other kind of domestic that you would be all over it..


honda or not, you gotta admit that that took a lot of innovation and imagination to put together.

[Omaha]

Nah, that car is ugly, Honda or not. :thumbdown:

Cavaliers suck, you&#39;ve got us all wrong bro. <_<

[Blackhead]

lol.. i&#39;m just messing around anyway...

[Omaha]

:P

[DAlanS]

lol@crapalier what was the ****stain supposed to be thou?

yea man, powerful cars=cars i like, thats why i like domestic over import b/c they just have more space to mod(rice is pretty much the same for both categories considering you have the same amount of dumbasses putting stupid looking crap on them)

the commercial was nice dont get me wrong but the new wagon it was for looks ugly anyway u put it

[Blackhead]

what mods?


not to seem skeptical, but its no easy task to get a civic into 12&#39;s..

[Omaha]

12 second Civic. I raise the BS flag. Pics.. specs... etc?

Older corvettes are slow anyhow. They didn&#39;t make cars to go very fast back then.

Unless you put at least 40,000 into that Civic i doubt that you can do 12s

[Blackhead]

thats not really true dalans..

i can do it for about &#036;5,500.. and i plan on doing so when i get &#036;5,000 to play with :)


h22a, (200 hp, 168 tq, stock..) which would put me into the mid 13&#39;s

h22(2500)//intake(200)//header(250)//exhaust(300)//lightweight flywheel(250)//racing clutch(400)//cams(650)//springs,retainers(300)//Apex&#39;i V-afc (300) tuning(300+)

oh, forgot about slicks, that will add maybe 400 more?



come to think of it.. you can get tehre for even cheaper as well..

b18b(stock internals), 650... home made turbo kit.. 1500. uberdata(ecu mod).. free... or you could go hondata,.. 700.. tuned.. 300+

which totals to be about 2150-2500

56k = internet connection

DUH&#33;&#33;

and he still hit 12&#39;s didnt he?

if you dont believe my prices, go look around.. they are legit.


and to quote him..


H22 motor
obd1 conversion
crossmember
custom axles
rad/fan

too lazy to add it up 8) I&#39;m sure it ends up being quite a bang for the buck when all is said and done.. and it&#39;s still got HUGE potential.



Thanks..

13&#39;s should be a thing of the past with slicks. If i don&#39;t hit low 13&#39;s on streets i&#39;ll be pretty ticked off

[DAlanS]

i read the rest of that post...never said how much he spent on it...i have no idea why that 56k would be there other than the price(when you read the thread there isnt much need to list the speed of his internet connection)

but that conversion took him 2 years...nice waste of your life just to be beaten by someone who has a stock car

anyways i wouldnt believe anyone on that site farther than I could throw them...ill believe it when i see it

[Decker]

:D

[Omaha]

lol@decker and his pictures.

he says "56k no go" becasue of the number of pictures, and the loading time it will take for them to load.. who cares how long it took him, i mean, its not like he was in a hurry., if he had a shop do it, or had it been his daily driver, he would have have it done a lot faster (1-2 weeks maybe)

again, you need to be a little more open minded and realize that there are fast imports out there, that can take you, in all of thier four cylender glory.


on a side note, i saw a ws6 transam at the track wednesday night.. he ran a 14.54.

2001 FWD Career best E.T.: 8.12
Date: November 11, 2001
Location: San Antonio, Texas


2001 FWD Career best speed: 180.00
Date: November 11, 2001
Location: San Antonio Texas


some more..


First Honda in the 9s (FWD)
First Front-Wheel-Drive in the 8s
First FWD to break 150 MPH
First FWD to break 160 MPH

World’s Quickest FWD
World’s Fastest FWD


and you know what? he did it all with the h22 i was just talking about.

here&#39;s from motor trend magazine, a credible source


Stephan Papadakis is arguably the most recognizable name in sport-compact drag racing. The Redondo Beach, California, resident recorded the first-ever 8-second quarter-mile pass in a front-drive car, owns the fastest elapsed time for a front-drive car in sport-compact racing, and has captured three NHRA sport-compact victories.

In 2003, Papadakis moved to the Pro RWD category with his new AEM/Driver FX Pro RWD Honda Civic. Earlier this year, at Las Vegas, Papadakis clocked his first career 6-second, 200-mph run en route to his first victory in Pro RWD competition. He recently talked with Motor Trend about how he got his start, why kids should race their cars at the track and not on the street, and his future racing goals.

talking about street cars here buddy...if i had 100k i could make a moped do 10s :fu1:

[Blackhead]

you never said "street cars" so i didnt post any. :P

here&#39;s one for you, runs 10&#39;s, street legal. and hes, he has an h22 as well.
http://www.superiorracing.com/projectcars....ojectCarID=Mike (http://www.superiorracing.com/projectcars.cfm?ID=1&ProjectCarID=Mike)

i just so happened to be there that night as well. i watched him leave the trackm driving it, too.

[Blackhead]

i know your probably going to say "i wont believe it till i see it, but this one i dont have pics or vids of, so your just going to have to take my//their word for it(doubt that&#39;ll happen though) :wacko:

wow look one...how long did it take and how much did it cost? lol too funny you bring up one but if i had too there would be thousands of v8s that easily get 9s without the trouble :lol:

[Blackhead]

sure there are far more domestics hitting 10&#39;s them imports, hell, there&#39;s probably more domestics hitting 9&#39;s then imports hitting 10&#39;s. now, it doesnt matter how long, or how much it cost. the point is the fact that it hit 10&#39;s.

there are many more(but you have to look harder), but i just provided one, for one reason only..

to make you look like an ass.

Have you ever seen a 4 cylinder Honda crap can do 10s? no thats because they cant nuff said.

nuff said.

here&#39;s another.. this ones not even running a turbo, supercharger, or nitrous&#33;&#33; 10.08 too.
http://www.nhrasportcompact.com/2004/drivers/B_Ezerioha.html


thats hard enough for a v8 to do, let alone a 4 cylender. but that ones not a street car.



i will admit it though.. domestics(v8&#39;s) are a ton easier to make faster, and a lot cheaper. i&#39;ll never deny it.

i did happen to talk to the guy(with the ws6), and yes, it was stock. bone stock. but arent they supposed to run 13.5ish, bone stock?

another funny thing..

wednesday night there was a 98 viper r/t there as well. his best time, in about 8 runs, was 14.08.

Im glad that you finally agree that imports are slower...that pretty much all I was looking for lol :lol:

[Omaha]

:lol:

[Blackhead]

it&#39;s true they are slower.. with the exception of, say, supra&#39;s and skylines, etc..

if you put &#036;10,000 into a 4 cyl inport, and a v8, of course the v8 is going to be faster.

the point i am trying to get across to yo u is the fact that not all are slow. not all are rice. now that in mind, dont go into how much it will cost, how much power they make, etc, because it doesnt matter. it&#39;s the fact that they are fast

to me, your mind set is "4 cylender cars are inferrior to v8&#39;s" this couldn&#39;t be further from the truth. v8 s were meant for power(speed) . 4 cyls were(are) meant for economy, gas milage, emissions, etc.

if you really think about it, your trying to compair apples and oranges.

that in mind, you say, "why try to make a 4 cylender fast?"

simple. to emberass <sp?> the v8 drivers that think they are hot ****, just because they have a v8... like this tool in a 90ish 5.0 convertable.. bone stock..

he rolls up to me and i see him say something tho his old lady in teh passenger seat. she snickers..
him.. "nice car" (sarcastically) "wanna go?"
me.. "sure"
him.. "ok, but will you check my tail lights when were done, make sure they are working properly?"
me.. "sure thing"

we launch.. he spun his ass off, i didnt.. i beat him by about 3 cars when i let off.

me.. "hey; how do my taillights look? are they all working?"
him.. "**** off"
then he turns.
his old lady was laughing soo damn hard.

[Omaha]

Only because he spun... and I see plenty of rice boys driving around with their lil hot **** honda&#39;s having their **** don&#39;t stink attitudes or whatever. Just because we drive a v8 means we think we are hot **** :rolleyes:

i never said all do, but most i have run into think they are..


well, i still won, and thats all that matters.


i know a lot of import drivers are teh same way.. too many ****tards drive imports..

me, on teh otehr hand.. i&#39;ll be the first to admit that my car is ****ing slow <_<

I havent seen a supra non-modded beat any kind of V8 unless the driver(of the V8) is either an idiot or a noob and a Skyline is an Inline-6 not a 4 cylinder...(besides that fact it costs 50 grand for a 4 liter which only does 0-60 in 5.2 and the 1/4 mile in 13.7 WITH pro driver)

I don&#39;t care that not all are slow...b/c all are slowER and unfortunately at least half are rice...you wont see even a tuned honda without some kind of oversized tires or wing or some piece of crap mod that does not do anything

4 cylinders are inferior to V8 when it comes to what people are doing to them...thats is why they are so stupid; you buy an economy car and then install parts that nullify what it was built for ONLY to be beaten by bigger engine cars that are being used for what they were made for and then get mad when you get called rice; you are right about apples and oranges Imports will never be anything like Muscle cars

im not sure how many people you have embarrassed with your car but how hard is it to embarrass someone who embarrasses themself? "yes I am racing a lighter car so i think i will smoke my tires for the first half of the race" that guy was just a retard nothing wrong with the car

[Pain]

I havent seen a supra non-modded beat any kind of V8 unless the driver(of the V8) is either an idiot or a noob and a Skyline is an Inline-6 not a 4 cylinder...(besides that fact it costs 50 grand for a 4 liter which only does 0-60 in 5.2 and the 1/4 mile in 13.7 WITH pro driver)

I don&#39;t care that not all are slow...b/c all are slowER and unfortunately at least half are rice...you wont see even a tuned honda without some kind of oversized tires or wing or some piece of crap mod that does not do anything

4 cylinders are inferior to V8 when it comes to what people are doing to them...thats is why they are so stupid; you buy an economy car and then install parts that nullify what it was built for ONLY to be beaten by bigger engine cars that are being used for what they were made for and then get mad when you get called rice; you are right about apples and oranges Imports will never be anything like Muscle cars

im not sure how many people you have embarrassed with your car but how hard is it to embarrass someone who embarrasses themself? "yes I am racing a lighter car so i think i will smoke my tires for the first half of the race" that guy was just a retard nothing wrong with the car
well, you shure havent seen many things.. first, a 10 second street import. now a stock supra cant even beat a v8? why do you leave these comebacks so broad? bow about a stock dually? sure you havn&#39;t seen it, but you know it can happed. supra&#39;s can hit 13&#39;s in thier stock form as well.. just fyi, supra&#39;s have an inline 6 as well.

and since when are we talking about a stock vehicle? modded, that have a ton of potential. i know of an 8 second skyline, thats still streetable, and is available upon request.

what perticular model skyline were you looking at? was it the track model? because those can do the 1/4 in 12 seconds.

no, they are not all slowER. how do you explain my beating that 5.0 then? i never said anything was wrong with the guy. i an just a better driver then he was, with a faster car. wether he spun or not..


wining&#39;s winning

:lol:

if you were saying i get mad when i get called rice, well.. thats not true. why? becasue i really could care less about what otehr people think. sticks and stones man.


another reason why v8&#39;s should be faster, is because drag racings been around for 40+ years. hell, honda&#39;s not even been making cars for that long. experiance.

you really need to pull your head out of your ass. imports are not as bad as you say.the import racing scene is picking up, and more and more fast 4 cylender cars are coming around.

i hope you get stuck driving a purple v6 mustang.

Not to put Supra&#39;s down, but have you ever looked for a stock TT Supra... These people want INSANE amounts of money for these cars. Even the stock automatic n/a models demand more than I&#39;d ever pay for one. :cartman:

Hmm... you did get pretty upset when I was joking with you on my phone and called that Lotus rice. Sticks and stones? :huh:
That 5.0 race... He spun. Honestly if I beat a &#39;tuned&#39; import because he missed a shift or something like that, I wouldn&#39;t gloat about beating a &#39;tuner&#39; car, because I know that I, beat HIM... not his car.

And the import scene is picking up thanks to that stupid movie series Fast and the Furious, and its even going to get worse now that there&#39;s a 3rd one coming out. :rolleyes:

Dan... please don&#39;t get stuck driving a V6 F-Body&#33; :cry: hehe

Ok now you want to talk about diff models that works both ways...My mom&#39;s boyfriend who purchased a GTO recently if he wanted to could have gotten a model that was 675 HP from the manufacturer(im going off of what he told me i did not look into this)...i think that would put any supra model to shame tuned or not; its the same way for other cars as well it all depends on what you are looking for and saying that that is a non-point would be the same as what you tried to prove earlier with the Honda funny car...with an unlimited amount of money anything is possible

another thing since i was talking about 4 cylinders in the first place you backtracked a lil since the Supra is also an inline 6(i didnt know, or care for that matter, because i didnt look those up)if you want the Skyline info i was going off of here is the site http://www.skylinegtr.com/SPECS.html look for R34 Specifications about half way down the page

Id love to see the 8 second street Skyline "available upon request" :rolleyes:

I already explained how u beat the idiot in the 5.0...HE smoked the tires as you put it and thats why he lost by 3 car lengths but i guess u missed that part -_-

plenty of times u have flown off the handle b/c someone called u a ricer...i have the AIM convos to prove if you want them

you say V8&#39;s should be faster because they have been around longer...they already are faster so i guess you dont know what your talking about there you already said in one of your posts "hell, there&#39;s probably more domestics hitting 9&#39;s then imports hitting 10&#39;s" as far as car companies being around longer yea Ford and Chevvy have been around longer but lets take Nissian for example...the first Skyline that you think owns all Domestic cars 1st came out in 1957, you think in almost 50 years they could have done better than what they came up with...

Pull my head outta my ass huh? well thats a personal opinion on your part which doesnt really make much sense, also it shows your reaching...you have no points so you just go right to making it personal; if you want it to go that way its fine with me but then we&#39;d have to move this to the Private Forum b/c I would thrash you.

Never in my life IF I wanted a mustang would I think of putting a V6 into it OR coloring it purple :fu4:

so you mean to tell me that a v8(presumably?) will have only 4 less horsepower then a v10 McLaren F1?

yeah, didnt think so.


go to http://www.exvitermini.com/... click on "movies" then gtr700. there are videos of it on the street.

they dont allow direct linking..


as far as the 5.slow goes.. sure he may have spun first gear, but he didnt pull on me any after he had traction.

no it has 104 less than a v10 Mclaren but with a supercharger could reach that same arena...

as far as the skyline..wow one im sooo amazed and somehow i doubt that it is street legal...just b/c you have a car on the street dont mean its legal id like to see him get pulled over and the cops give them the run thru

Which makes perfect sense since you were already going faster than him, after he gets traction he then has to get to your rate of speed.

I wouldn&#39;t expect him to pull on you either.

At first that is what I was told(from this statement "so you mean to tell me that a v8(presumably?) will have only 4 less horsepower then a v10 McLaren F1?") but after I looked it up it seems that it is 104 less on just engine...the engine that I had showed you in the previous post...

I have no idea where you got 800 from would you like to borrow my calculator? ;)

879 was a typo <_< but you still knew what i meant..
