Cheers for the info.
Those guys are pretty fkin good. Are they pro's? Car's certainly look like it. Seeing all these vids and stuff you've posted up is making me want to get an S13 even more.
I need to get one and start my own local drift crew so they can fix my car when i smash it into things.

Not Pro's, but Phil in the black S14 in the pics aboveis one of the best in the UK, the Pink 350Z is a mega bucks tuner car, but not driven by a pro in that vid just pretty good, and the other vid is matt in his S14 and like Phil hes not a pro, but hes very good!
Ive been in that car with Matt, and he's proper nuts, only reason hes not won many comps so far is hes sooo agressive he ends up crashing, he awesome.
Having a bunch of mates that will help you fix it will help soo much mate, im a bit fucked at mo as not many of my mates are into cars, Greg (Bigwig) comes to help loads, but he lives miles away so even thats not so easy!

Update, seeing as ive got some pics thanks to Greg...
We (me, Dan/Fudgeass, and Greg/Bigwig) took the old engine and box out, swapped all relevent bits onto the new engine, and put it back in.
Taking it out took 2hrs tops inc removing all the pipes n shit.
Shame fitting it has took a good 7hrs now and we still not mananged it
Just cant quite get it all lined up perfect
old engine out
me lookin like a proper gimp next ot the old engine
old engine and box on the floor
the new engine
me cleaning out one of the cam covers
the new engine and box once bolted all the bits i needed to it
the new engine almost in place
getting there....

Back this weekend i think mate.
That ones internally standard.
Bolt-ons are good enough anyhow, can get 350odd with no prob anyhow on std internals.
But if I break it i might uprate the HG and Pistons, esp if I can get em for free...
Im more interested in the new turbo n balloon blower that il be fitting soon.
Esp as now I realised itl fit in a better place to how I thought, so a big front mounter is now no prob...

Shame as my mate has been out nigh on every day drifting and been to two more practice days so is waaay better than me now
Seriously tempted to do one of them Volvos soon, R5GTT engines bolt straight in, so thats ideal as thats my specialist engine

Got the engine in and mounted properly at last!
Once we knew how, what took us 7hrs of trying before was done in about 45!
Thanks to the prop having 2 UJ's it was easy to get the prop into the gearbox by removing the prop mount and the safety hoop thingy.
Getting all the gearbox mounts in is a right fiddly arse of a job tho, which is annoying as its a 2min job to remove em!
Nearly there...
Went down the scrapper on saturday and found this...
So robbed a few bits n pieces off it, tho the few bits we couldve done with, we didnt remember to get
Started to remove the front bumper too, then decided i couldnt be arsed, and went home
Got some parts for doing a 5stud hub conversion on sat, should have the rest by monday. Then i can fit the deep dish Work Equips off my GTR onto the S13

Today alone I ordered some adjustable rear camber arms, a vertical hydraulic handbrake, and off in a bit to go pick up the rest of the bits to do a 5stud conversion

Think your gonna use it much tho?
Under normal track use you wont touch it.
Only reason I got it is its massivley useful in drifitng to initiate the drift and adjust the angle if you cant by other means.

Saw the vid you put up where the guy has a vertical handbrake. Did i see you put somewhere that the car was supercharged? If you did I can see why you want one on yours.
