my first drift car

lo people i have been an avid drift fan for a while and thought it was about time i give it a try so i aquiried this from maximus a few weeks a go



had a couple of problem on way home but max came and saved me the first time and when i got home the part that held the thrust bearing decided to melt to the shaft disabling the clutch so after replaceing the bell housing with anew one and new part fo ethe thrust bearing decided to give it a spruce up decide to black the three back window out and prep the car for some paint
