SOOOO pikey and out of order but I had to just watch and laugh as it happened!!!!
The "Cable Tie Incident" will go down in history and be talked about in drunken pre track day pub visits for years to come!
Sadly we are not really building a drift spec car so I would have to decline your kind offer.

Awesome plan chip with just 3 flaws!!!
1. They make terrible drift cars!
2. I am a shite drifter!
3. I have no fooking interest in drifting
Actually 3 is a fib so I may well do!

2. DWYB is for praticing not competing
Drifting is only one step up from banger racing in terms of pikey motorsport + these cable ties will help you drift.

I had good fun there in a mazda MX5 that had STANDARD suspension, it was fucking terrible, but still good fun.
Me too but days like the DWYB ones make you better
Interested in it or not, I firmly believe some basic drift skills are well worth having for when things go wrong and you end up sideways when you didnt mean to, so much better if you have the "mad drift skilz yo" to keep it on the tarmac when that happens.

I have to admit, Yorik was fantastic fun on sunday, even if he did try to kill me twice!
He isn't the most practical car in the world, and it is a pain in the arse having to do journeys in two cars..... but to see the smile on Lee's face when he's had so much fun in him......... tis worth it.

Lamdba, chip, injectors and all new engine sensors have arrived from MSD. As did a full MSD coilpack conversion
New billet Fuel rail and ECU from Reyland should be coming today. As well as new uber bling Aeromotive fuel reg, gauge and fittings.
Collins moniter arrived last night.
Bundles of aeroquip and fittings from THINK as we are ripping the entire fuel system out from tank to injectors and starting again.
Few more bits to sort and going to get the head skimmed very lightly as Chip and Stu want to do this once and do it right!
huge thanks to Chip for pulling the Ryan loom out of CossieRichs saff last night! Top work fellas!!!!
I am PROPERLY EXCITED!!!!!!

Taking off Chips new T3 Turbo for him!!!! (well undoing the ONE bolt that was holding in on )

The project manager was doing what all bosses normally do!!! FUCK ALL!
well actually doing nothing was not entirely true... I did bust it licking its bits!!!
and then it sulked...

Depends what you want. Assuming it's a car engine'd car you want - you'd be better off looking at SEIW (The 'I' means independant rear suspension, the 'W' means Widebodied), besides that, just look for the best spec for the age and budget you want.
