[QUOTE=Exhaust;3248617]I still dont understand what that was supposed to mean.[/QUOTE

At that point in the movie Tran and company were asking where their engines were. The sales guy, Ted, owner of the race shop was supposed to have ordered the engines. However he was also a shady guy who did a lot of side illegal jobs. So when this comment was made it was Tran assuming Ted sold the engines off illegally to make more money ( a premium) rather than sell them normally to Tran like he was supposed to. Rational being that a week before race wars everyone is scrambling to get their cars prepped. As some of you know, sometimes before a competition things go wrong. For example, someone may have a SR20 that blows and someone is willing to pay double for a SR20 1 week before so that they can compete.

The bigger question is why Tran is even in the market for SR20's. We see him drive an S2000 later on but it begs the question if anyone in his crew was riding in a Nissan. Then again, it's a movie, who cares
