dude that thing looks nice:bigthumb:
love the side exhaust
have u seen the skyline r32 drift pickup

Yeah seen it a while ago on a japanese DVD, there was also a supra pickup but i belive that its dead now

Heres a vid of it the only one i have ever seen and it was this that inspired me to do a pickup

http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?...=drift+extreme

However i wanted it to be unique, so decided to do it without the big bars hangin out the backend, the wide arches were a freinds idea and i must say finish the car, had to but some kinda box on the exhaust as is was to noisey for the track according to the officials :whateva:

more work to come after Christmas

cheers for the comments

from you guys' experience with this car, what would you say was the most neccesary thing to drift the car properly? i'm looking into drifting my '89 N/A as well, but i'm kinda skeptical b/c it's my daily driver as well, and supras aren't cheap to fix :[

Most neccesary thing would have to be to stiffin the chassis and weld the diff, or you could shim the diff if you dont want it permenantly locked
