the KA can take gobs of abuse. but in my case they are always selfdestructing, or sumthing

nice mate, welcome from Australia ;), are those panels drift replacements ?!, if so well done !

hows the drift scene (albeit car scene) over there where you live ? and what type of rims are they on the front, they look cool

the drift scene here in the US is starting to blow up. the problem is the traffic laws and cops dont like us playing in our cars. so we dont get the practice we need.
yeah, the car gets panels and suspension parts everyso often.
the wheels on the front are from a 280z
the ones in the back on the snow pic are off a z car also.
i have no idea why my host has been acting up. sorry about red x's

As long as the scene isnt as bad as the fast and furious movies portray it to be, its all good :)

Welcome from Perth, hope you enjoy the site and forums. Grab some happy snaps from stuff over there and im glad to host them for you.

man, the fast and furious is really just a dumb ass hollywood movie. i mean, there are guys like that. but they are just a joke. there is always a bunch of dumb people in evey scene. i live in ny, not california so we dont act like that.
you guys in NZ and Aussi have better cars and parts then we do(as far as nissans and RWD cars go) all we really wana do is have fun:D

see if these pics show up over here. i dont know why the host dont like this address

RHDS13 gave me the link
i know i need more power. this is my second 240 in 2 years. so i guess it's time to jump on some sort of DET motor. i'm not sure what one yet. i like the idea of an RB. but i mainly drift and dont want to comprimise the handling of this car.
the onlu guy i seen drift with an RB is Bav(i think that's him) in a vid he posted.
anyone wana send me an R32 clip;)

tomj

S13 is better then R32 for drift, though a red 32 just won the latest jms drift comp in S.A (south australia)

www.fullock.com has some nice videos, including the red 32 i just mentioned.

S13 is said to be better due to less weight and the more torquey nature of the SR over the RB engine.

Get some of your mates on here too, we would love to hear what the scene is like over your way :)

i seen the red R3 at japanesemotorsports. i'm always checkin out their drift videos. that r33 is a monster.
i was thinking more along the lines of an rb20. less torque but stronger block then sr.
i'll be ordering a front cut next week. but i'm still not sure what motor i really wana go with. what do you guys think?

here are some DOW vids

yeah rudeboy is kinda DG and somewhat import fanatics, good bloke

these guys are the shit and their skills are ++++++

i have shared the love with gavs vids, his RB goodness can be found on xxx american forums

chris' 350z was awesome, he used to have a FC with an sr in it and he now drives for signal in one of their full house drift cars(180 s15 front)

tony drives the white FC and is getting some big sponsorships coming along(cant say yet)

the white onevia with the green stripe is JR and he is falken sponsored(they have awesome D1 USA cars too)

rudeboy

i guess money has alot to do with it. almost an extra thousand bux.
plus i wont have to get a driveshaft made.
i'm only gona make about 300rwhp. plus the 20 has a higher stock rev limit. great to drift long US road coarse corners with.

i think i'm gona rebuild the motor in about 8 months anyway. so the extra money saved on a 20 will go into forged internals and cams.
then i can make more power then a heavily modded 25. mabey;)
i may buy an RB25 if i find one just laying around.
