So me and the brother Bryan decided to build a drift car for a bit of fun :)

The base car is an FC RX7 which was fondly known as the "kettle" due to the fact that it was constantly boiling when it had the 13b in it, got rid of that and stuck in a 1UZ-FE 4.0 V8 out of a Lexus LS400, still a bit to do but it's slowly coming together.

I'll get a few pics up as soon as I can!

Wouldn't think so, keeping the engine fairly standard to keep the cost down, run a stock engine and a mappable ecu for the mo.

Will still be awesome, will this be a very lightened version of what it once was ?
