why do people do that. choice in parts is highly questionable, especially the engine. I dont' question the engine, i just question the decision to put THAT engine into THAT car. As well as the rear axel and whatever crazy idea went into the construction of that car.

Second: if you think 240's are only good for drift and that IRS spells drift you need to go to road racing school. IRS is dope for all kinds of driving and 95 240's are pretty amazing sports coupes.
Third: most of us do not have one track minds in this area. If you think we do you need to shut the fuck up and start reading the forums more, like maybe the motorsports section?
Fourth: we don't have a problem with the american drivetrain. The problem we have is with the amount of hacking up he has done to the car, to install a live axle rear end in the car, at least thats the issue I have.
Fifth: Unbelievable upgrade from stock? Ya and totally useless unless used for one thing and one thing only. That is the main reason so many have issues with it. Taking something that can autocross , road race,drift and even drag if you want and turning it into a single purpose entity, is in my eyes and a lot of other forum members eyes a waste.
Now all you drag racing fanatics have all had your say the funny thing is the minute any one criticizes it you guys bring out the drifting JDM saw. Get over yourselves and you talk about us not being open minded?
P.S. some of us own classic American cars as well. So before you go making blind accusations maybe you should think.

Last time I checked, there's more ways to be fast than only in a straight line. I feel like slapping you too for labeling silvia cars as JDM mad tyte drifter cars.
