Taking the car to Tailem Bend Motorsport Park tomorrow for the 2nd round of Stadium Drift SA. The track used to be the old Mitsubishi test track, so its not too special but has the ability to modify the track layout more.

Here is the layout for tomorrow



Getting some 4 metre long ramps made up so i don't have issues getting the car on and off the trailer, here's hoping it works!

Will be loading the car up tonight for the 1.5 hour drive ... and leaving at 6.30am

I love the way the fender flare makes your front end a more cohesive than the usual s14.3, Keep up the great work!

yeah the bar is certainly higher then the rest of the kit... and its not the bar's fault its just that the s14 is higher at the front body wise compared to a 180sx. will be changing the bar soon to something different.

some more pics!

some killer pics from Luke Hobbs!

Just curious, what upgrades did you do to the engine before you tossed it in? Did you upgrade timing belt, HG and water/oil pumps to N1s?

when i first put it in the car over 18months ago it was stock with a new timing belt and a new water pump. everything else was bolt on mods.

i have since done ARP head bolts, MLS head gasket, and then more recently the bottom end got a quick freshen with new GTR rods (Neo RB25's have rb26 rods standard anyway) resized with ARP bolts, new crank, ACL race bearings and a crank collar welded on. still using the OEM oil pump.

Track_Battle_Intro This is the new national series for Australia starting in Melbourne in 1.5 weeks. This means a 10 hour drive towing the drift car with crew also! Will be a long drive but so so worth it, we're actually using part of the thunderdome to drift on which will be interesting.

Froffin These guys are awesome so like their page, post up your car and if its awesome we'll send you stickers!

FB Page Here is the link for my professional FB page, please check it out for updates and most importantly like it!

Some more pictures!

road tripped it over there. left 5am fri morning to get to calder at 3pm to set up and unpack.



my car was faultless and performed brilliantly all weekend only issue i had was a bend tie rod and castor rod bracket being out of wack after a hard hit when tom monkhouse spun in front of me. steering wasnt the same afterwards but being the drifter i am i made do with what i had. was running some crazy toe out at the end... something like 30mm out. flicks in HARD hahaha.
