OK change of plans... thanks to OPTION1 im getting a JDM shell with a sunroof http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/smile.gif already stripped bare so a lot of parts will be needed.

the plan is to turn it into this...

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/photopost/data/500/medium/narkscarv.jpg

So far the plans are (keep in mind this wont be street registered)...

Engine: 4AGZE
Oil Cooler with remote filter
FMIC
2.25 or 2.5 inch straight pipe from front to back
Pulley Kit
Internal Work
Cams
Fuel pump
Injectors
ECU

Suspension:
Tociko custom coilover setup front with Cusco Camber plates
Tociko rear adjustable dampers
Custom springs
Sway bars
Strut bars

Driveline:
T series rear end (drum to drum for now... might upgrade to s13 bits further down the track)
Kaaz 2way LSD
Lightened flywheel
HD Clutch

Body:
Completely gutted
1 fixed back and 1 recliner
Full race style cage
Custom gauge cluster (no dash)

Exterior:
Stock at first (custom kit later on with guards front and rear, custom bonnet and hatch as well as front and rear custom bars)
15 or 16inch Work EWING rims

Im estimating about 18months before it is fully ready to the way i want it...
Only thing i will do until i have all the other parts is the suspension... then i will start hitting the prac days and building it up from there.

Hoping to have the LSD and suspension in by about august...

So yeah... finally starting to happen and i cant friggin wait... ever since i got the taste for it in december at banzai its all i can think about http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/biggrin.gif

thats exactly how i got pulled in, a mate in his sprinter showed me the art of drift, and i became an addict instantly.

your plans sound mad! should be a neat project to watch as time passes.

just a personal thing, i think it would look good (and different) if it were painted yellow and black panda, black bottom half. then put your graphics over it. its just an opinion.

i might mess around in paint and see what i come up with.

numbnuts over here (inark) used to own an A31 cefiro with an RB26DETT set up for use in the D1 drift comps by Kids Heart in japan... you might recognise it... its the black one that won Drift Nats after Jairus bought it off him.

I still think you shoulda kept the old girl.

Now hurry up and get a track car... tandem drifting is gonna be no fun by myself.

BTW, wtf is with the black door, it looks like you're too povo to paint the door to match the body of the car.

he bought it off me before round 4 of the 04 series where he came first in the privateer class... thats what monkeys talkin about http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/smile.gif and then this year went into the pro class where he is now racing the Chasers Pink Pussy 180.

as for the door... havent u seen a lot of the D1 cars new styles... sure... theres is carbon... im too povo to coat it in carbon http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/biggrin.gif

but as for costs... considering i will be doing 90% of the work and the engine is only costing me half what it should the costs wont be anywhere near what some morons pay for a near stock JDM ae86
