as for myself, i don't get the old 'rx7 purits' comments.. but i get some comments about all the jalous people in my region.. they cannot understand that i have a good job, and can afford an FD.

My friend drifts with his new/leased 350Z.....A couple of drifts later the doors dont seal right..... Even the door for the gas tank is not flush with body anymore.....

Its pretty obvious this abuse is not good for the car....... You don't need to be a rocket scientist........

I'm just looking out for you..... Don't drift the FD.....Unless you like driving down the road like a dog that doesnt walk straight...........

Sorry man, but this is bednight story for kids under 5 years and even they probably won't buy it.

Drifting doesn't affect the unibody, neither does the alignment - end of story. I've drifted few cars pretty hard (more than 1000kms of track drfting), and there were no side affects.

I'm glad others like you know so much more so I can learn from them

And at least I happen to know a thing or two about drifting... http://www.parsek.si/documents/soru/mobi/a.avi
