If you hurt anyone other than yourself, we reserve the right to punch you in the face. Since I am in the next city over of Azusa, I will be first in line because you are threatening my life.

If you ever pop your motor, be sure to leave it over at Wan's place for his speedy service It'll take a little over a year to get your car running again, just like his FD

Don't forget to tell him about the brake pads guys!

Or if you ever have a flat, be sure to call Wan! It'll take him 20 minutes to remove the spare tire from his car, and another 40 minutes to install it Talk about quick!

and we try to keep it safe
I just turned 18 I've been driving WITH a license for a year now
and im not a 34 year old using his dads car but that would be
this is my first year in college
took me about 2 years two find this rx7 and i got it because i wanted something diffrent, more like a challenge
Im going to fix this car for the sport
and I was not asking a noob question the question was simple
if there was a store near my location that anyone know that sells performance parts for rx7's
if no one knew one or there isn't one a simple no would of been fine
and i would of just ordered my parts of the net
people misunderstood the question and most of you people asume the worst too much


OMG.... 1 year of driving your DAD's car isn't enough for you to be drifting. It's not even enough to consider yourself a proficient driver. If you can't grasp the concept of gaining driving experience before taking up something as difficult as drifting, you really are a child.

The RX-7 is NOT an easy car to start drifting with (that's even for the "old folks" that have had 5+ years of driving experience).

Drifting up in the canyons is NOT safe. There are tons of motorcyclists up there that CAN'T stop quickly mid corner. If you come screaming around a blind corner and there's a bike there, you're probably going to kill the rider. I could care less if you kill yourself doing something stupid, but if you kill somebody else because you think it's cool to learn how to drift after ONLY 1 year of driving, you deserve to go to hell.

Seriously, you might think you're an adult because you just turned 18, but you're still a kid. There are some amazing drivers on here, and every single one of them will tell you the same thing. GO TO THE TRACK and GET TONS OF SEAT TIME. If you can't afford to go to the track, you can't afford to drift. It's that simple.

I'm seriously getting sick of these kids coming on here talking about drifting and all this "I'm not a kid, I just turned 18" crap.

Hahahaha... I can't believe you guys let this thread get past making fun of him for the wannabe Initial D corolla name hahahah.



But for reals, I have drifting parts for sale.

Like, I've got this slightly used DRIFT S5 starter only $500!!! I'm totally losing on this deal... and I've got a stock DRIFTING air freshener for $50 too!!!! ITS OMFG DORIFUTOOOOOO.

I'll also teach you how to SUPRDRIFT in the CANYONZ, but my fees are not cheap... and your car may take some damage... because like I might get ANGRY and start bouncing the bumper off the guard rails, 'cause I'm sUPRDRIFTZO!!!

Also, GMR is the best place to practice 'cause there's SO MUCH PRO DRIFTAR UP THAR. It's totally not a bunch of ricers with a lot of money, they are PRO. SRSLY.

I have not even started to drift my 7 at all
im gonna wait for a year first but im still going to buy some parts
im not a kid who drifts like crazy **** i haven't been drifting at all ive done before at a empty lot with my cousins car but not once in the public street or in the mountains
plus its an expensive sport so i can't afford to be drifting right now
im just gonna get adjustable suspension, and have some other parts that way when i get experience all i gotta do is install the part i have at home and see how it handle later

I totally agree with what you people are saying
that don't be stupid you could kill someone
yeah i know i have not drifted my seven at all
and yeah i will gain experience like you people said like learn what your car can do and stuff like that
im going to practice were my friend works hes a truck driver and they have a huge empty cement lot and i will practice there at night

Thanks people
you guys were trying to put some sence into me, but the thing is some of you people over exagerate and make me seem to be a stupid kid trying to be a ricer
but im not
hopefully in a couple of years i do get experience
thanks again

Aiya! Why do we youngster think were invinsible and think we can do anything now a these days. You dont really need anything to make your car drift, trust me i drifted in the rain in my fc, and it is kinda scary. I advise you no to do anything stupid and hurt other people for your joy and fun. Drifting in the canyon is drifting in the street, well if its not a track and out on a public road is consider on the streets. Just enjoy your car.

Uh huh, drift parts are performance parts, nothing flashy about them, some reading of the FAQs in your respectful section will probably answer lots of your questions.

And don't be thrown off by my name, I was a kid once also.
