Lada practice car - Drifting forum

Motary · 09-11-2006, 21:38

Since I'm still underaged to own a driver's license ( currently working on it

), I have this to practice my driving skills with, had it about for two years now

The engine is a Vaz(domestic name for Lada) 2106, 1.6 liter sohc, with a carburator

I haven't done much to it performance wise, only the following:
Denso iridium power sparkplugs
Welded differential
replaced worn off parts with new ones
adjustable cam gear
home-cut tires

( this is more of a rally car than a drifting car )
improved cooling system

But I have done quite a lot of work to make the inside of the car look nice, the exterior is whole different story..

I was actually going to make it look nice but since after I let a few friends to drive it, fohget about it

hardcore !!

i want to see that thing go sideways

Quail · 09-11-2006, 21:58

Thats quality mate! The interior is mint!!

Where are you located btw?

gaz_moose · 09-11-2006, 22:13

guessing by the steering wheel being on the left id say not around these parts.

and im gutted at seeing this as i was gonna build one of these next summer already got the axle and was looking for a fiat twin cam.

Its orite! You could still have the 1st UK Drift-Lada!

Dori Edd · 09-11-2006, 22:34

That is seriously, seriously cool. What helmet is that?? Looks badass.

cookwibble · 09-11-2006, 22:51

that is awesome. truly awesome.

you dont see the outside when driving so no need to tart it up

Dragon Force · 09-11-2006, 22:57

You seem very handy with the spanners for a 15 -16 year old ( i assume that's how old you are from the post!)

Tru tru maybe jus a new once over colour is just enough i think! but the inside is damn clean i have to say " I LIKEY"

Motary · 10-11-2006, 10:25

I'm 17 and thanks for the comments, I didn't expect them to be so warm, few more pics

I am located in Estonia, eastern-europe, lada's are as common as dirt here

Opps! Sorry guys, I meant it's SOHC, not DOHC, so sorry >_<

I use this helmet nowdays, the other one is by Meno.

Oh, I also made a hydraulic handbrake for this, you can't tell very well from pics but it's next to the driver's seat, next on the list for winter season is a bigger radiator and floor pedals b(^_^)d

Black Betty · 03-12-2006, 22:35

haha, quality!

You must be pretty darn tall for a 17 year old, considering where you have located the seat and gear stick

Todays youth hey

Nero Serpente · 04-12-2006, 09:37

I think its verry cool to drift that!!

Maybe you can put an Fiat engine in it like the guys from Top Gear did a couple of years ago

Motary · 04-12-2006, 16:11

I don't think there's much need for more power, I'd like some stiffer front springs tho, It's quite understeery but I can cope with it.

Im 189/6"2 if you care

RandomGuy · 04-12-2006, 17:19

thats ace... you're 17 and doing all this... youth of today eh
