Sam's new Drift car. JDM haters stay away :)

Car is looking sweet buddy :thumbs:

You wanna adjust the height of the pins on them catches though, you can see its pulling down too much on the fiberglass, creating big dimples :smash:

Got to be done though. The WMIC pipework for the t28 is a tad too high for the bonnet, i have already spaced the rear up as much as i can, if i loosen the pins off, the bonnet goes wonky :(

Job now is to re-arrange the pipework. At the moment though, it's easier to just slam the bonnet on it and lock the pins :D
 
Looks awsome.. and Saj runs a top shop, no wonder you got it from him...

What was youre old car that went to Denmark?

For some unknown reason, the rear lights have been run via a switch in the pocket in between the seats :wack: I spent ages looking for blown fuses before i realised :wack::wack:

It's not uncommon to see that with people who like to outrun the police. They shut off their rear lights so cops have a harder time following them at night.

That's the only reason I know of.

But other than that, VERY very nice Silvia. England seems to have it easy with importing these cars, especially since they are right hand drive already.

I thought it might have been because drift judges mark people down for using the footbrake on entry?

I've seen it done, but I would not see that so common over here until you run into the very big competitions. Otherwise it's just too much of a wiring hassle for such a small detail.

Since that car is more of a street car than a competition car, I'd figure it'd be more likely to outrun someone in the night.

But valid point indeed.

It's actually quite tatty in real likfe mate. Especially now I stoved one of the wings in at the last drift day and got it back out again with a breaker bar.


:wack:


Getting some vented frp wings on there instead. Gradual weight saving and all that tosh.
 
Have been collecting some bits and doing some work on the interior/dash.

Aircon is being relocated to the cubby on the tunnel

Looks quality dude, if not a bit busy, can you reach the switches when your harnessed up? how about moving them back to behind the gear stick so their at your finger tips?
