JZX100 New drift Bish!

Yes....Another project!! So after selling my s15 and regretting parting with it i went out and bought a scooby....well that didnt last long because 4wd really isnt for me and is boring!

While i had the subaru i really wanted something rear wheel drive that i could skid again. I had my heart set on a jzx100 chaser that titanautoworks had for sale for a long time, how it never sold before i got my hands on it ill never know!

I went out to Tom from titanautoworks place to take a look at it, and just knew i wanted it. Put a deposit down and set the wheels in motion for a new skid car.

So after 2 weeks i finally got a chance to get down and collect the car, I drove it all the way home with one garage plate in the window and no reg's how i never got stopped once god only knows! For anyone that doubts an auto can drift...Mine can .

Ok enough with the bullshit heres some pictures and what ive done so far:

Ill have a lot more to come in the next few weeks, mostly just making sure the car is road legal to pass an nct and ready for the trackday on the 1st of July.

So far im very happy with the car, seems like it was very well cared for by whoever owned it before me, even has a partial service history and an original service book.

Future plans are:

Two new rear droplinks
Get rid of the auto box

Oh and remember to bring a camera next time im working on the car....
