    I shall measure one for you tomorrow :thumbs: it's exactly the same core as I used in my V-mount setup, which is currently supplying around 410bhp at 1.3bar. the cooler should stay efficient to over 600bhp :smokin:

    we're just chosing some now, would you rather have upright like Phil's or horizontal like a normal one?

    Very roughly.... less than £200 for the handbrake and mounting plus the brake hoses which depend on whether you want braided or solid and whether you want to keep ABS or scrap that at the same time

    I'm presuming (possibly a bad idea), that the handbrake will be a universal fit? I need to fit it to a 300zx...

    yeah, it'll be universal. You basically fit it into the brake pipe that runs front to back, but you need custom pipes to do it. Braided ones are the easiest solution in plumbing terms, but they're more expensive than solid copper ones.
    It's usually worthwhile modifying the brake plumbing to remove the ABS at the same time.

    aye, the ABS was getting binned anyway. Braided would be the best option IMO..

    Cool :smokin:

    What else is Driftworks going to be selling?

    You're all doing a great job there, it's cool to see the shop expanding sooo much in that small amount of time :)
    Really liking the custom stuff you're having made, and selling :)

    Howmuch for a full set of poly bushes for the "whole" rear of my s13 ?
    And have you peeps got any cheapisch Boost Gauges & Controller?
    Not that i've got the money at the moment (Being a student, and keep fixing problems on my car sucks ass:( ), but i've recently acquired a FMIC for my S13 so... heh

    cheers for the support :)
    Like Euge says we're all sorted out with proper office and secure stock facilites nearby :smokin:

    We've got a lot of stuff up in the shop at the moment, but loads more to come :D We hope to have pretty much everything people will need for drifting, all at sensible prices people can afford. We're starting off with 200SX stuff as that's what we know best, but can now get all kinds of bits and bobs. Expect to see tools and safety gear very soon too :)

    I'll get on the case with the handbrakes now if they're that popular.

    If there's anything you'd like to see us stock or any other suggestions about the business, please let us know. We want to do the best job possible and welcome any input you guys might have :thumbs:
