Any advice on future mods to aid drifting would be nice, i know obviously i really need a LSD and a better suspension set up, and i want more boost and a FMIC. Been in my mates with an LSD and to be honest i'm not sure i could really put up with the noise it makes at low speeds!

Hello fellow Colchester chappy.

Hi, names daniel. Im new to drifting im a reasonably sensible driver but i want to start. Im looking at getting a GTS-T.

RednaxelA · 17-03-2005, 18:56

hi, i'm new here, got directed to this place after looking through the newera movies(n1 brooksie), i don't know who it is pulling the drift in the fast, east and extreme trailer(mitto?) but thats where driftworks caught my eye! :E

ne way, i'm from wellingborough in northants, about 20 miles away from silverstone and 10 miles from santa pod, so i have geography on my side! I'm gonna be getting an s13 shitter to learn in soon, then prolly approach newera for an s15 later on down the line. I did have an import 350z down for deposit through the bristol import centre, but pulled out when the car wasn't as advertised. The bastards kept my deposit despite telling me at the time that it was fully refundable, but stupidly i didn't ask for a receipt at the time. Anyway, i definately don't recommend them to anyone here.

Shout outs to anyone in the area, gimme a heads up on abandoned airstrips and proving grounds in the area, anywhere with a lot of empty tarmac really(thats free to practice in).

Hello all,
John Hinchy here, another Irish lad, been drifting for a while now.
Used an 82 manta up till recently.
White one with redtop on 45's, but went and bought an ex cop mv6 omega, plated up the diff so she is all ready for the new season

Great site by the way

l4ckl · 24-03-2005, 18:30

my name is antony lacki (L4CKL) and i'm an alcoholic.....

sorry wrong forum..

i have been into drifting for a while, but i'm not a drifter yet. i have recently bought an R33 GTS-T skyline which is mint but i dont want to start/learn how to drift in that as mistake can be very costly.

great site by the way. and i look forward to watching the drift champs throughout the year.

ColinR · 27-03-2005, 19:49

Hoping to grab some advice from some of you more experienced drifters

Anyways, Hi,

Colin

Nice combo E30/M50... I keep trying to crash my E34 so I can pikey the 24v into a cheap E30 but it's having none of it...

Nick · 28-03-2005, 01:27

alright pimp

id like m50 power...

see this guys i am recruiting... german powered drift boy faction is growing.

6potWil · 28-03-2005, 03:17

Its a nice little conversion as theres quite a few in America/Europe, but less well known in the UK so far.
Best thing about its the smooth progressive but strong power all the way to the redline.

downhilltougerunner · 28-03-2005, 11:59

Hello,

I'm new here so thought I would say Hi. I live in a small village near Milton Keynes. Lived abroad quite a lot and used to drive anything rear wheel drive on the mountain roads. Had a four door Escort 1.3, BMW 318is, AE86 Saloon, and some others. Currently saving up to import a full drift spec 86 again.

Bought a UK 200SX and a lot of tune up parts for it which I am now selling to fund the AE86. Hope to see you at a meet soon. Anyone near Milton Keynes arrange meetings? I've driven past the "cruise" on Sunday nights and seen the OPT Drift Club people parked up. Didn't stop though as I think cruises are a bit.....how shall I say..... :dermal:

DriftLexus · 29-03-2005, 23:01
