In total, i'd say theres near £5000 tied up in the 200 so far (which would include the 17x9.5 Rota GTR's i got for £280 due to the fella not having a clue what they were worth
), with another £3000 planned before it see's the track again.
Why oh why didnt i buy someone elses drift car with all the work already done to it...

I suppose.. Originally Posted by s13-ste

In saying that, i was clueless about the drifting a year ago.. I didnt even know how to do it properly.. Used to just hang the tail out in the Skyline and Trueno at every opportunity, which is completely different
Now though, theres a full DW handling package coming, adjustable lower front and rear arms, hydraulic handbrake to get teh best out of the Skyline calipers, full set of bushes, a full VX bodykit (and possibly overfenders, depending on the new wheels) and then some more power..
It would be cheaper to build a fcukin house.. lol
