Feck that your car looks well it's a drift project not a low and stanced project there is enough of clowns with low and stanced cars that don't drift them.
My advice get Tyres and some seat time and have fun

Thanks lads!! thats the plan ! i also bought 4 more skid rims ! so have 10rims with tyres and we're ready to go!! :)
Get it out to Mondello the 29th and have some fun.
Do some Skids.. stat! :cool:
Going to Caseys Memorial day i think!! Cant wait to try skid again after a year of doing nothing
SOOOOO! I havent updated this in forever as this stage! since this was updated we shal go from there...
the car was done as for my funds were extremely tight.. so i did the caseys Memorial day last year... managed to qualify into the top16 (got knocked out straight away ) but was really fun!...

after that we did maybe one or two other private days and i put the car into the shed....
I then in last year in March i went :

to visit the otherhalf for a few months... and what a great place it is. the drifting and people i met including Riskey Devils /Junkhouse was unreal.. cant wait to go back in a few weeks time.
she we both flew back to ireland middle of the summer and finally got myself a proper full time job.... the minute i got home i went out to the car , got some tyres on and headed over to caseys yard in tullow for some practice , been very rusty aswell. but i was dieing to drive the car. before this we fixed a small boost leak which was there from the Waste gate , and also a coolant leak. the small boost leak fixed it was like driving a different car.

Update time!!!
So I sold the SSR Professors to a mate as i wasnt feeling them on the car. so lucky enough my all time fave rim came up for sale. so i bought a pair of Work Equips from Chris Martina . they were painted badly black (sorry chris ) :P so i threw some paint stripper on. and brought them back.

As my work for the last 2months has been 7 days a week 12 hour shifts . i didnt have time to anything really. took the car out once in tullow and that was it. so instead of giving the refurbing of the works a go myself i opted to leave them to good friend Brendan Gordon from Team Chihuahua to have them Polished and refurbed! Brendan only had them for about 20minutes and he sent me this picture. Cant wait to see them really polished and finished.
http://http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/a...psc9a1cf11.jpg
After tullow cleaning the shite off the car was simply hardship but il give the brother props for getting it done indeed!
http://http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps01462432.jpg
http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps1005c285.jpg
So next up was to treat myself to a few nice bits. for xmas!
so picked up this Kouki Spoiler which wil be painted white as temporary until our team colour is on and finished for next year!
http://http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps9e7f27d1.jpg
Also picked up this Downpipe and Elbow from buddy Dan Moorhead off his 180.

Also got this Carbon Kouki Garnish. Brand spanking new!
http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps8a4277b1.jpg

http://http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/a...psb172a3fa.jpg

LATEST UPDATE!
So over the winter... i got my Work Equips back off Brendan gordon.... because i didnt give him the full lips he didnt get to polish the sides but wil be going back down in a month to get finished for good.....
have to say they are pretty dam sweet. also we flipped a centre around to see how mega it would be. but couldnt run that offset for fronts.....
As you can see from the picture. Brendans work is really the best around its flawless.... he has been a good friend of mine for long time now. so he in know he is a guy you can trust with your rims..
http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps524652f4.jpg
http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps9a8ac7f7.jpg
Next up was tinting the rear ligths. What a Cu*t of a job . with the lights being the same a kouki. the bumps of the circle (if that makes any sense) was very hard to get the tint onto. really would be better Sprayed. so they wil be fine for a bit..
http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps45eb84c7.jpg
I also think i have a problem with collecting parts.
http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps6b56a850.jpg
So i popped the car down to my Sponsor and good friends at David Byrnes Auto Garage in Wexford to have the hydro mounted as our Welder is on holidays for a bit...
http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps02342c7d.jpg
So after going over the best place i wanted the handbrake.. we found the perfect spot for myself. and a savage job the lads did
http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps9da7403a.jpg
http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps21d87c3e.jpg
So after that i just popped over the road to good friend Dan Moorhead to pick up a set of DW Braided Hydro Lines from Wkd Imports. the best thing you can buy when it comes to hydro's!
http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps47909021.jpg
So with no pictures the Hydro is now in and working! . so some testing with that soon.
So after we sealed the front wheels. i noticed a small leak. very small at that. so i went on a romantic drive with my Work Rim into the tyre garage..... :tongue2:
http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/a...psa206edc4.jpg
So after the tyre came off we noticed we just didnt put enough sealer on ! so its now drying in the kitchen!
Also to end i have this brand new Hks turbo sitting at home. must pop it into the car soon aswell.....
So mondello on the 10th testing next week.... might have to take a hammer to the front arches for a bit more clearence on the front wheels! But shur! be grannnnd!
nice work . hydro is sweet . you gona paint this ?
Hydro is looking well...dont suppose u want to sell one of the carbon pieces for kouki lights?
