Just thought I'd share a few pictures of my car at a drift event up here in Nothern California. NASA is doing their US Drift events and this was a private event to test out their first one.

 

How do your CV joints hold up to this type of driving?

-Z.

 

Never had a problem with my CV joints. I did have a problem with my rear wheel bearings until I converted to a later style rear trailing arm. I think that problem was mainly from the bigger wheels.

 

The pics aren't working for me.

 

Did you cord that tire before or after the drifting?

 

Looks like you did a good job chewing up your tires there! I'm currious about the dash you've got in there though. Is that a fully custom set of gauges you put in?

 

After about 2 hours of straight abuse those tires finally gave up on me. They were Khumo 712's. I then bought some used Bridgestone S03's (barely used) for $15 Each, drove down the street and had them mounted and balanced for $30. $60 for rear tires mounted and balanced, what a steal .

My car is an early car and I did a new style dashboard in it. So I did all autometer gauges. I've got a Tach, speedo, Gas and temp. Not gas pressure but actual gas.

 

So wanna hook the rest of us up with the source of these $15 S03's?

 

The last two drift event's i've been too, people have been selling used tires. usually about $30-50 for two.

 

I have seen it asked before, but never found the answer, where did you get that hood scoop. At first glance I didn't like it, but damn it grew on me. Must be the residual Subaru in me.

 

very nice pictures,drifting is fun as hell
How about some video?

 

Junkyard baby! It was only $40 at Parts heaven. There was a 924 or 944 with a fiberglass hood and I just unbolted it off.

 

I'm curious as to how you hooked up the gauges? Are you still using the DME and KLR?

 

The hood scoop is a replica 924 Carrera GT hood scoop in the wrong spot.

 

Awesome pictures! Your car looks beautiful in action. I'm a big drifting enthusiast and it's always cool to see one of our cars keeping it slideways! Maybe one of these days I can afford to build a drift car, that would be fun! But until then, my 944 is going to spare its tires. I'm sure some people here aren't familiar with drifting as a motorsport, and might not understand its purpose as such. Keep it countersteered, Ryan!
