Some of you may or may not have known this but:



In The Fast & the Furious: Tokyo Drift, the fiction is that the hero transplants the powertrain from a Nissan Skyline GT-R into an old Mustang in just one day so he can take on the Drift King that night and prove himself the greatest drifter of them all.

In real life, five of the six Mustangs built by the Tokyo Drift production team had American V8s under their hood for reliable power production during filming.
