    Here is my e36 328 drift car.

    Bought the car 2 months ago to start drifting.
    So far I've done 4 drift days, everytime I've broke something so I'm definetly trying hard enough!

    How I bought it.

    Spec:

    Welded small case diff
    'My first drift car' £30 jobby hydro
    Modified Willie rose hubs
    E46 wishbones
    Polybushed all-round
    6mm rack spacers
    Chizfab crash bar

    The car was in need of tlc when I bought it. It had sat for over a year.

    Work done and parts replaced to date:

    -The fan as it had previously hit the radiator that had not been mounted properly.
    -Radiator had to be replaced due to this.
    -Two front wheels were like 50 pence pieces so picked up the dare bbs reps!
    -car would only Rev to 5k, rear abs sensor fixed that.
    -2x new track rods
    -fitted 2 seats as it came with none
    -fitted the '100% genuine' takata harnesses [emoji6]
    -installed a stereo for beats
    -general tidy up.
    -bonnet clips fitted

    So now looks like this...

    Future plans are to just keep drifting it until I get a good bit better! The car doesn't want for anything that I can think of to make it any better. I just need to improve!

    Felt like I was having to put too much effort pulling the hydro with the small handle!
    So found an aluminium tube and created this monstrosity!
    Does the job nicely though!

    I also managed to destroy a driveshaft! [emoji2]
