View Full Version : r32 4 door drift project
hows it going guys said id make a thread about my 32 , i had this car about 2 years and before the superdrift day had literally drove it about 3 times. about a year ago i resprayed it but due to only being able to spray at home i had to use cellulose paint which is utter shit so it will be getting a proper respray in 2 pack soon, it was going to be used as a road car but never got around to putting it on the road . being sick of looking at it go to waste i decided to get into drifting on track , entered into superdrift last week and i was doing shit for the first half of the day but after 4ish i really started getting back into the grove after 2 years away from any form of rwd after 5 i was getting all the corners linked and really enjoying it, so the car is going to be 100% drift car never to see road again

Cool car, shame to see a nice 4 door R32 being pulled apart for the track though.
You were flying in wgh from what i saw.
Car looked savage on track :cool:
I have the following parts.
Adjustable rear toe arms + new polybushes to replace the hicas ball joint in the hubs.
Practically new set of yellow stuff pads for rear brakes.
Alloy bushes to tilt the subframe for more grip.
P.m for extra lock options.
looks cool man, pity its been taken off the road but sure could be worse. good job..
Is this Shane's old car?if so I was wondering where it went
Also don't put in Perspex windows they will fade and crack with age and sun light use polycarbonate or lexan as everyone else calls it

@grange- i wont be selling any of the glass sorry especailly not the windscreen my biggest fear is cracking that as i know they are near impossible to get :(

Looking Awesome dude! Glad to see it finally being put to good use! sitting on my drive for far too long so it was!!
Red is a savage colour in a r32 ,will make a nice driftmachine
sucha cool car, shame to see it tracked!
Ok so this car is going down a completely different route. Kit gone big wheels gone being resprayed and road going . So far iv got the wheels sorted 16's . Car is currently being sanded to bare metal for a shit hot respray in true black
Glad to head its going to be road going! Looking forward to seeing it finished! Are you going with a gtr front?
Iv been looking for a gtr front for 3 months now and cant find one so its gonna have to be standard :(
Aw yes the track idea made me cry. what size are your wheels and offset
They be 10.5 wide . Cant remember the offset but its negitave . And also has 25mm adaptors on so much arch work is being done lol
They do take a good sized wheel though in fairness. I'm going to have fun fitting my 9j -40s on the back. Keep us updated
