Corrected entry: When Jesse pulls up to a drag race, he is in a 4 door VW Jetta with white roof, handles and seat belts - its pillars are white too. In the middle of the drag race he is in a Honda civic coupe with 2 doors (rear windows shape is coupe) black roof handles, the seat belts have no pillars, and the belts are black. (01:12:50)

Correction: The car Jessie is driving stays the same throughout. Johnny Tran is racing a Honda with black roof and seat belts.

Correction: The front on shots of Jesse driving during that race where the camera is pointed at him through the windshield, they actually used what they called the "mic rig", which was a 2 door black civic coupe chopped up and mounted to the back of a truck fitted with camera rigs. They did one for the eclipse and supra too. They put a red steering wheel cover on the civic's steering wheel to make it slightly look like the red steering wheel in Jesse's Jetta. So yes the original entry was correct.

Corrected entry: When the police storm the cafe for Lance, you see him get choke-slammed by an officer and the cop puts his knee on his face. When the shot changes to a close-up of Lance's face, the cop puts his knee on his face again. (01:02:55)

Correction: The cop in the first shot puts his knee by the side of Lance. In the next shot he brings it up and puts it on his face. Not a mistake.

Corrected entry: In the scene where they are trying to get Vince off the truck the Civic changes from having regular tail lights to the clear ones. (01:24:12)

EMTurbo

Correction: They are normal all the way through. The clear one is the one that was shot out by the driver of the lorry.

Corrected entry: In the last scene when Brian and Dom are racing the quarter mile and after they go past the train, when Dom hits the big truck, you can see the stunt ramp. You can see it if you look under the truck wheels.

Correction: I just viewed this scene very carefully and no ramp is visible.

Corrected entry: When Brian arrives to Race wars, two big security guys stop him and one says, "Welcome to Race wars." His lips are not in sync with the audio as the audio is about a second too early. (01:07:10)

Andreas Winnberg

Correction: The words are not out of sync - I just watched this part 3 times to make sure.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: When Dom, Ja Rule etc are checking out Brian's engine, Ja Rule looks in the engine bay then declares that Brian has "enough NOS to blow himself up". This is impossible for him to tell just by looking at the engine as the NOS bottles are mounted on the back seat. (00:14:00)

Correction: Whilst it is true he says that after looking at the engine, he could have seen beforehand that his Nos is on the back.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: In the first street race the amount of racers around at the end of the race is less than the number of cars marking out the track. (00:22:00)

Correction: Not everyone is up by Dom and Brian. If you look you can see people all the way down the row of cars.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: After the end of the first street race when Dom is going on about being a real racer and how it doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile. Behind him is a kid in a black shirt with spiky hair, it then cuts over to Brian and the same kid is behind him. (00:22:38)

Correction: I just watched this and the same people are in the same place depending on the angle. There is someone who looks like the kid behind Brian, who is behind Dom.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: At the beginning, during the first race scene Toretto pulls away from the white car, so there is now some distance between Toretto and the white car, yet when the camera cuts to a front view, the white car is now magically level with Toretto's bumper or very close to it. (00:18:05)

The-Immortal

Correction: I just watched this part of the film and nothing of the kind happens.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: When Brian brings Dom back to the fort, Dom talks to Vince about where they were. When Vince says, "That s**t was orchestrated.", he's seen from the side view, but clearly his mouth doesn't move.

Correction: His mouth does move, but it's hard to see due to the shadow.

Ssiscool

Correction: They don't switch sides during this scene.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: In one of the aerial shots after the first race. The police cars are driving onto the street. If you look closely you can see several police cars parked on the side streets waiting for the cue to pull onto he streets. (00:23:45)

Correction: The police could be deliberately using this tactic, so not a mistake.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: In the beginning of the movie when Brian is testing out his Eclipse on the track you will notice that the camera view has changed from the passenger seat to the driver's seat. When the camera is in the driver's seat you can tell that Brian is still driving, now on the right-hand side of the car. This can be noticed by the proximity of the door to the driver. (00:03:29)

Correction: It's not changed sides, the camera has just zoomed in more.
