JDM Motorsport!!! :)

As some will know I picked up a new a fews weeks ago, and like any other it has been good fun getting to know it. As with any second hand car there is always going to be a couple of little teathing issues. After a few fun miles and a fair bit of dicking around on the works car park, I noticed a bit of crackage to my manifold. All though I'm not that bad with the old spanners, when it comes to dropping turbo's off I would rather get a profesional to sort it out, with the aid of the correct tools, knowledge, and time to check everything else is sweet.

I dont know about anyone else but whenever it comes down to finding somewhere to look after your drift car its always a major worry and hassle. All the places that are motorsport driven are never that interested and cost an absolute fortune. We've nearly all got a local spanner man who's cheap and cheerful but there drifting knowledge can often be slighty lacking, not to mention half your aero being left on the ramp and your new suede steering wheel being coated in eau de gearbox.lol. All the mint drifty garages are always close to other lucky sods, and never on your door step.

Well I am now one of those lucky buggers A drift orientated garage on my door step JDM Motorsport, has just opened up on the Ikon trading estate, near Kidderminster (west Midlands). Absuletly chuffed with the work they did on my car, its now spot on thanks to a few other little bits and pieces getting sorted, which went above and beyond what I've experienced with everwhere else I've taken my drift cars over the last 6 or 7 years.

Richard Clark (superclarkey on here) did all the work, and to say he knows his stuff is a massive understatment Cant believe we hadn't met before seeing as we've both been involved in drifting for so long, but it was good fun talking crap about the good (/bad) old days.

Couldn't be happier with the time and effort they put into my car (thanks again btw), I was wondering if anyone else on here has been there yet?

I echo your statements, my car is now with JDM motorsport having a few minor operations carried out to get it the way it should have been. I found out about JDM motorsport whilst superclarky was helping out get the car running at Mondello 2 weeks ago now the car has made the trip from Northern Ireland all the way to Kidderminster as i felt that he was the only one who could set the car up the way the driver Mark Luney and myself wanted.
Cant wait to see the finished car on track at Prodrift Teeside in 3 weeks.
