+1 on the "this isnt a build thread"..
Most people would be better off purchasing a built car versus building one. I mean look at some of these "build threads".

Im down to watch it start decaying anyways
Because theres no way it can get anybetter





Car is dope af btw

I think this should be under the "Whats did you buy today" or "The Pic Thread"
Not to add on the trolling but I have to agree with Sileighty_85 on this.. Awesome purchase man but not sure the purpose of a "build thread"...
But just to summarize is this where we are?
-Fly to Japan
-Buy drift car
-Drift drift car
-Make "build" thread/pray for internet fame???

Honestly, I think it's kinda cool to be able to see what becomes of the car. There's so many hero cars from the older days of drifting that we (the fans) never get to see again, but this way at least one of them lives on. At least that's my take on it.

Well. I have already spent 4000$ on upgrades for it. Like a completely new front setup. If the turbos are in a bad condtion Ill upgrading for a new single turbo setup. I have a good turbo laying around that would suit this engine very well, but if the old turbos are ok and work, theres no point of doing that yet..

What's a front setup?

Turbo's? as in more than one? the engine is already converted to a single...

Do you know anything about engines?

Stop being a moron...

Front setup as in new knuckles, extended LCAs, rack spacer and a new swaybar. Gave me 56 degrees of steering lock which is pretty good on double wishbone.

You clearly dont know much about this car do you?

It's two HKS GT-SS!

lol ok that ones my bad, with your giantic fucking pics all i saw was a yellow engine bay with a 2JZ and big single.


front setup could be mean anything, front bumper, front mount intercooler, front tube chassis...

Nope not a damn thing. I prefer to actually drift and build cars rather than watch other ppl drift. Unless im there in person then thats a different story.

thank you, zeitgeist!

current condtion,

car's exterior is very clean, there's a damage to the right side skirt, but i have some spare skirts for it so don't worry. there's a few cracks on the fiberglass, but not very many and none of them are big. the paint is very nice, no sign of oxidation. underside of the car looks okay too. not super clean, but it's a drift car and it's been used hard so obviously not polished. i could not see any rust in real or on all the pics i've been through. engine seem to run nice so i'm hoping for the best, haha.

the last two or three years it's just been standing at Kids Heart, Tezuka's shop. Before that it was stored at Bee Racing for many years, covered with plast.

Just to clarify, are you actually 23?!
Because if so, I envy you so much man.
I'm 21 and no where close to getting a car like that.
But I'm happy someone close to my age is living the dream drift life haha.
Any idea on how long the shipping will take?

Definitely interested to see what this car evolves into. I bought my car stock and it has been a great experience for me to build it to what it is today, it's very gratifying. I grew with the car as well with my skills behind the wheel. I hope that you're ready for a car like this and not just jumping into it blindly, so far so good though as long as it turns into a "build thread". Good luck man

Thanks guys, my age is not correct here. I'm only 17. I'm not an experienced drifter just to clearify that. I have drifted only one time. I play a lot of games though

Expected arrival is 27th November, in Norway
