drifting would be difficult... awd turbo has major traction unless in dirt or snow

Yeah, when you're using awd you break traction on all 4 tires for the length of the turn. It's technically a power slide because you use more initial speed and less counter steer to keep the tires off.
My very near dead clutch can't handle doing that on dry pavement. Once I get a new clutch and up the power a little it should be nice and scary.

Well I dont know an exact price, I didnt count, but put it this way...

Just before I bought that I sold my 2003 Honda S2000, and the cost to buy it, ship it over to the UK in a container, have the car delivered from the port to me still in the container, and then get it fully road legal, cost pretty much all the money I sold the S2K for.

Dangerous- Yeah its got a fair bit of minor battle damage, but ive never managed to finish a drift day without knocking at least one bit of aero off in the past, so no biggie there.
Its REALLY nice mechanically and I plan to jus spend the money keeping it mechanically great and the body around as tidy as it is now, no big changes, thats the only reason I bought it- the spec is really good.
As long as it looks good from a few meters away im happy enough. I dont wanna let it turn in to a wreck, but I dont to perfect looking bodywork- im too wreckless for that.

Tyler- Aside from swapping some sponsor logos for others (depending what sponsors offer me!), ill jus fix anything back to as it is now- I like the fact its offensive and tasteless, its like me!
I dont buy all the "classy" thing when its jus some old cheap Jap car, most people not in to cars still thinks they crappy old cars anyhow, so I always go for wild racecar looks.

Actually, one thing thats changed is the "Sexy Knights" sunstrip. As awesome as they are, I dont want to pretend im part of a team im not, and also driving round the streets with "Sexy Knights" written on your car in huge pink letters in the UK is likely to get people thinking you're gay, lol.
In Japan it was fine as theyd not really make the connection, but here its different, lol.
I'm changing it to "Manko Bancho", I can get away with that in the UK, though would raise more than a few eyebrows if you had that on your car in Japan

Ive got very little stuff on the car TBH, I have one round of D1SL on DVD where it came 5th and qualified first, but thats it.
I know it won a round of D1SL and a few other events, but never seen it.
