Thanks
90% of all the drifters here are RHD.. MUCH cheaper cars and when they dont pay taxes its cheap! My cars are LHD ONLY since i hate sitting on the wrong side. I have also payed taxes so my cars can have license plates if i want to!

I got more steering loock!
Im borrowing a friend of mines knuckles. They are rewelded etc.. That is probably the most look you`ll get without insane spacing, removing the anti-sway bar and making new wheel wells.

Sucks ***, debries from broken stuff brakes turbos real easy. The question is if it's cheaper with a new chra instead of a whole new turbo. But the only saving is turbinhousing and compressorhousing.

Hope you sort it out!

haha, im working my *** off to afford this and im getting kinda tired now!
To bad there is now way to get enaugh horsepower on a rotary without turbo.
Everyone using LS1s for drifting now and its soo smooth!

Anyway i made some decals here the other day just for fun
Looks cartoonish but thats the theme. Im making more this week if i got time!
On that picture you can also see the new rims. Nice enaugh for drifting...


I also picked up my other FC from the "workshop dungeon".. I found out that it was so high humidity that everything was rotten and more rusty!!
I may be able to have the FD engine done and in the daily FC next week Maybe a test run?!

Any OEM Rotary > Any stupid piston swap.

Go 20B, or 20B Renesis (make one).

hehe.. Im to deep into rotary to quit using it now Great concept and i love the way it delivers its power! 20b would be nice. After cleaning up the garage and pushing another FC in (and my fathers renault out ) i got enaugh motivation to get the cars running again! Gonna do the rew engine this weekend and cleaning up the drifter.

Im selling all my non rotary cars now so i can start saving for a LS1/2 project though. It kills me, but i REALLY wanna build a Lamborghini diablo with supercharged V8 haha.. yes a real one..no kit car ****..irritating..probably gonna be a useless car..cool though, with alot of power..
