Hello!
Wandered over from the sxoc just to get the odd bit of advice now and then on our S13. Its a track car more than a drift car but it seems to want to go sideways quite a bit (250+BHp on budget tyres ) so thought it'd be a good idea to register.
More details of my/our car here (3 of us own it!)
http://www.mdracing.co.uk/s13spec.asp

And yes it really did only cost us £70...however suspension and a swift big-end bearing change (nowt wrong at the mo - just being cautious) will bump up the costs a bit
See you round the gloucester/cheltenham area!

Goodness, how did I miss this thread?!

My name is Peter, I found out about DW from the D1GP event at Silverstone. I'm from the States, so that automatically makes my 240SX a piece of junk because of the anemic KA24E that came under the hood.

I've owned 2 S-chassis before my current one, both were fastbacks. I don't get to drift often because the roads are terrible where I live, and law enforcement is pretty harsh, since it's a small town with numerous cops. There's only 3 other modded S-chassis (all of them are S13's) in the town. One KA24DE-T, one SR20DET, and one RB25DET.

I've got a lot of stuff for my car, but never any time to put it all together since work keeps me so occupied, and on the move. I'm planning to have a built head by the end of summer, using a set of JUN 272 cams, and a full Tomei valvetrain.

But that's pretty much my story, I'm glad to be on the board!

Hello from G8 summit place, lol.

I'm Alex, I'm 16 and I'm into drifting for 3 yrs. I used to have a ride, but it was junk, so now I plan to build a drift car based on Ford Taunus 2 door.
I also design bodykits and make them, so if u want to get a design, or something like that contact me. =)

Yo, I'm new and I shouldn't really be here because I was an ass and sold my first rear driver..... yeah you guessed it, a ratty S13, last month. I figured I'd better get some money to finish my Euro shed so I can sell it and try my best to afford an S14A.

The week after I got it I went up to Silverstone so my Dad could get some pics from the Formula One cos he's a pro photographer and I ended up wandering over to WRC-Tech and had a chat with one of the mechs over there. I know he's on here somewhere, with a Liner GTS-T, and he was sound as a pound so if the rest of the scene's as helpful and chilled out I can't wait to get back on.
Boring intro over, Cheers.
