Here is some #### I've done today: pre fitted my pop up's , they will always stay up I think it looks sick.... on a hatch :P and got my rear brace with a spot to jack up the car...... since the car will be super low and jack wont slide under my bumper ( my old car was like that I always had a hard time lifting it during tire changing and the kit was not as low as this one )

So on my old car when I am drifting and suspension going up and down front tire rubs off fiberglass fender... so maybe this will help
http://i51.tinypic.com/2hh2mxh.jpg
got aluminum plate traced and cut to fit perfect and then bent a little lip where tire will rub instead cutting into the fender. that will be protecting my nice D-max fenders lol I hope
http://i53.tinypic.com/160z9yf.jpg
Fits nice and tight
http://i52.tinypic.com/ztvl9t.jpg

http://i56.tinypic.com/29ohbx1.jpg
Sweet!!
I don't know much about drifting as a sport, up here we try not to, LOL.
my first thought was bad spot for the oil cooler, but I guess if your not going wheel to wheel.
Is there a site or circuit or somthing I could learn more about what it's all about.
Hey, do they make those color smokin tires in green yet?
Eugene Great work!
I hope Everlast sponsors you for the Full Deal!
Keep an Eye on your daughter, she will start to turn heads soon!
Spend as much time with her as you can, she will grow up very fast!!
dwdw
Aw man, I know! She now turns heads but I am dreading the ones when she is a teenager! Just pray! Thanks tho!Quote:

Thank you Eugine for the picture...
Love the color , car and how you build it up ....
Gelek also looks very nice ! :)
Let me know if you need anything elae from us !
Oleg
Its an over used word but, AWESOME! The photos of your hard work and the build is amazing!
Awesome build from the ground up. I'm more of a import drag racer enthusiast but can definitely respect the drift scene and what you've put together.
Great attention to detail! Looks excellent. Gives me some new ideas, although I don't drift mine at all. Really like how you left the engine bay white.
WOW! Alex said it was, really, a must see! He was Soooooo right! WOW!
I Love Plasma
OK, drifting huh?
Check this sheet out.
http://iconmotosports.net/2011/01/hi...ins-drifter-2/
Oh hail yea.
Great work Eugene,lots of great pics and thanks for the time to write it up.
Now for the only critique that I can see from the whole build but I am sure that it has been so long since I was building cars they have fixed it.
Are you running an electric oil pump so you can pre-lube the engine?With the oil filter upside down 2 things will happen on start up expecially after an oil chage you are starting with a dry filter so the engine is running dry on lube for 5 to 10 seconds which puts wear on the engine and also without a checkvalve the oil is going to drain back out after a run. But like I said it has been years since I built an engine and you have probably taken precautions for what I mentioned..Really curius to know..
Great work the Eugene , keep it up and win a few races in that car..
