Like I said this is the best drift car I've owned by miles, and Ive had a few :nod:
Supercharger gives awesome power delivery, has enough poke to light up 265's in 4th, totally different to a turbo and for good reasons IMO. Was able to use 4th on the limiter at Santa Pod on a hot dry day!
Modern chassis makes a huge difference. So much grip the way you want it, was able to keep up, even catch up, to pro drivers at the pod pretty easily
Can't really praise the car enough, if you don't buy it for how awesome it drifts then at least buy it for the noise it makes! alschaser:
So far it has served me as an excellent daily drifter, however add a cage and other competition parts and it could easily be a pretty competative car. Or keep it as a daily, it costs me 700 a year to insure fully comp and returns 30mpg average!
Only bad points are, as you'd expect from drifting - minor cone scrapes and rubber, could probably T-cut it all out easily enough I just havent had a chance. There is some damage to the rear drivers quater which I will get better pics asap
Build thread is at the bottom of my sig so you can see the life its lead since my ownership since September last year.
Will get more recent pics up soon
I don't feel like I have to justify the price, it owes me nearly double that anyway!
