The only reason me and jez put a cage in his drifter is so passengers can enter but I highly recommend something to stiffen the car they flex a lot

[Captain Natro]

It's not a easy job even for a skilled fabricator I'm just lucky and brad shows me the secrets and the extra skills I'm still learning but I'm learning from the best. Now iv seen the way brad goes about the job I would never do one without propper equipment again. To be honest if your fab skills arnt that good I suggest paying someone it could save your life think of it that way plus if there is a cage in the car people will look at it. If you need any help with fab stuff send me a pm and I'll help you out as much as I can.

Dont do it in Chromemoly then, needs to be done by an approved cage builder

Do it in CDS

[Captain Natro]

sweet man ill cya there, I'm usually floating around there somewhere. should take it to a test and tune pre jambo I'm there 90% of wednesday meets spectating so yer...

+1 for getting the cage rigged up by someone that knows there s#it could be the difference between you wrecking the car and wrecking other things

[51NNA]

CDS it is! i do know someone who builds them but hes not cheap, maybe i can con him into signing it off for me lol

[DVS JEZ]

Dude iv played with cars you could dream about I'm not a moron. It sure does but your building a drift car not a time attack car you don't need half the shit your buying chances are the things you replace will cause more to break. If I was building a drift car I would. Kando turbo, nismo injectors, PFC or nistune, decent cooler, e85 and a good cooling system then spend the rest of my 10 g on making it handle and safe then start saving for spares

Tht sounds exactly like a drift car i know

I built a full car from a

Rolling shell for around 6.5k that includes buying a motor a box, turbo, clutch, nismo inj, z32, kando turbo on ebay manifold, bsa built the exhaust and cage for it, i tuned it on E85. All u need is coilovers and a shimmed diff and u will mince tyres.

I have learnt over the years what u need and what u think u have to sped money on to hang with the cool kids.

My old drift silvia had everything, all custom knickles etc etc, spent shit loads, this 32 drifter i have now out handles it with just coilovers and steering spacers.

[51NNA]

well ive already been drifting in it for a few years with just a rb20- then too the 25, just with a nismo 2 way, tein coilovers and the microtech. I feel ive got the car at its limit with the current mods, so im going too the extreme with it and see how deep the rabbit hole goes lol
