    dont have a car ATM! but drive my brothers car which we are working on

    1988 nissan cefiro (a31)
    currently a drift project car
    with fully adjustable suspension , ride height, damper, camber etc
    adjustable strut braces to stiffin the susp and body up a bit more
    its been stripped of all air cond parts, carpet and sound deadening! which makes it a hell of a lot lighter
    adjustable caster arms
    adjustable tie-rod ends
    a steering lock spacer for extra steering lock
    lightweight 3 peice 17inch wheels from japan
    and alot of other spare 16inch wheels for tyres
    no rear seats!
    front seats are from japan also "bride" zeta iii bucket race seat for the driver
    and a reclinable "recaro" for passenger which both weigh a ton less than standard seats and give alot more support for when your drifting
    LSD from a gtst
    currently only a somewhat standard rb20e (single cam n/a) engine but gonna drop a rb20det (turbo!) engine with an rb25 gearbox and turbo

    it does really suck to drive on the street in traffic becuase basicly its a drift/race car with crazy springrates and just the stiffness of whole car

    cant wait till its turbo and we can have a go on the track

    NO RICE !!!!!!!

    1995 honda civic, customised as seen in avatar, also have Celica GT4 to do daily runs. In march bought my dad a new 530d Sport, absolutely lovely car, but nothign beats the attention from the civic, when your in the mood that is,lol.

    My civic was voted best civic coupe in UK by fastcar magazineand best civic coupe in Europe by Redline Magazine.

    Mind you its getting a bit out dated these days, i started it as my project while at uni!!! loved it, endless amount of friendly women attracted!! e e he he he

    '98 Ford Fiesta. As a freelance writer my commute is something in the region of 20 seconds - the time it takes me to make it from my bedroom to the PC. The car takes me to the shops, and that's enough.

    Just make sure you don't take it to Alton Towers, Staffordshire boy. It'll fall to pieces and injure 30 people :)

    Hey Crazy_Rob,

    Have you tried one of those "clay bar" things? I've heard that they're pretty good. I'm over in the UK and was looking at Zaino products too.

    A guy on ebay is the sole importer and has this kit up for sale
    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280009001653

    Do you recommend them?

    Regards

    Stuey
