For a small cost I can get hold of:
High Octane - 2000
High Octane - Overboost
High Octane 2
H O 3
H O 4
Who has seen any of these and are they are good ?
Anything better than the others and the rest ho hum ?
Which ones have good / high Toyota content if any ?
Or is it a case of seen one seen them all ?
Your solid opinion would be appreciated.
Thanks.

They're not the worst video's ever.
The presenter is a bit of a tool although he does own a SW20 that gets modified through the series from boosted up stock setup, to huge turbo to TRD widebody kit.
I'd say they're better than what I have seen come out of Australia. Hiring them is the go though, they have them at my local blockbuster.

I own them all and have even meet the team.
Overboost is the best performance DVD ever created. The Japan trip is outstanding.
Next is probably High Octane 2000, great to see the Option Speed trail out the back of Rotorua (Sad thing is trucks have used the road to much and turned it to lumpy for them to ever return)
#2 and #3 are probaby worth watching once. There good, but not as good as 2000 or Overboost
#4 was shit
This is all based upon my opinion  But Yeah, #4 they go to the US and go around all the car shows, and a couple of minutes of drag action. And the Viper scene is quite good, wont ruin it for you tho 
The new one is due out in June/July.

Is it just me or is the video quality of these dvds shit? I've been watching High Octane 2000, and the video quality is below what I would call acceptable for a DVD you pay $20 plus for
