It’s time to bring an old friend out of the retirement home. We’ve had this S14a parked out the back of DWHQ for the best part of a year now, and you’re about to see a lot more of it. We want to prove you don’t have to have a 666bhp mid engined monster, or a 550bhp BonBon powered mentalist machine to enjoy drifting – so we’re going to build a proper real world drift car, and show you exactly how to do it.The DW S14a is reborn – this is a good day.
Meanwhile, you may have heard that we’ve been having big clutch problems with the S15 since JDM Manchester, and it’s been slipping on and off. Well, the clutch finally died at Japfest, and the £3000 carbon clutch that has done sterling work over the last few years has finally let go. We salute you.
Fortunately, Exedy hooked us up with an awesome new clutch that will hopefully contain the billion torques.
World, meet Joe. Joe, meet World. Joe tidies stuff up, fixes stuff, and makes DWHQ generally a happy place to be
Over in shipping, Nick was delighted with his new wallpaper of Bon.
Finally – we have our Rod Chong lookalike Kam with this weeks amazing Friday giveaway – a JDM Tyte newspaper! If you want to win it, all you have to do is reply to this thread and tell us what you would do with it. The winner will be announced on Monday.
Mmmmmm…..Do-Luck!!
someone said tyte? where is another tyte? I want tyts!
Oh, by the way, my collection lacks that cute Hello Kitty in glasses. ken ai hev it, pleaz?
I would use the newspaper in the bottom of my canary’s cage. As I fed my canary extra hot pringles, the newspaper needs to be extra absorbant.

I’d be boring and (try to) read it. Then I’d use it as wallpaper – I’m redecorating my room soon and can’t decide on what to use. Although I’d cut out the Hello Kitty and turn it into a sticker for the car.
