I like this drifting stuff... I guess next up is some cheap coils, wheels/tires, and judging by these pics definitely a sway bar lol. I'll go to a welded/LSD when power increases.

The hood fits like junk. the latch wasnt glassed in perfectly so with out hood pins this is as good as it gets. thankfully I have hood pins on the way so itll be MUCH better once I get those on.

yeah man mine at least dosent flex much at all. I felt a good difference after installing a front strut tower brace and I know Ill feel even more of a difference once I get the rear one on.. and even more once the cage goes in. but as it sits I really dont feel any abnormal flex that you wouldn't expect from any other non caged car.
