Savage build, something to be proud of surely
this is savage!! fair play!! a few ideas i might try myself!
Quick Update!
I had my first competition in a good while last weekend at DriftFest Fermoy,
and we collected a few bits to make the car a bit more 'Manly'!
New Front Bumper, unfortunately we couldnt get an Origin to replace the one
originally fitted to the car so a Uras will do for now!
We also got a Rocket Bunny Rear Wing and got both painted and fitted for the event..
Still waiting to decided on a colour for the wheels, then the car will be almost
finished in terms of 'Looks'!

I qualified 10th overall placing me in the Pro Class!
Here's my Top 16 battle against Sam Farrell.. My biggest worry of the
weekend was going against a slow car as our S14 has a huge amount of grip
and slowing the car down was going to be tricky, despite doing everything
we could to try get rid of rear end grip, it was still too grippy and i straightened
handing the win to Sam who drove a brilliant lead and chase run!

All in all i'm delighted with the weekend, the level of grip is something i havnt
experienced before and i'm happy that what i'v learned in my time off
competing is working! I also found the gear ratio's of the RB25 gearbox to be
completely unsuitable with a 4.1 diff, so i'll be changing something there soon!
Few more action shots!

One on the best build threads on here by far, amazing detail gone into her, well done and all the best for the future mate...
Why not purple for the wheels to match the interior ?
Thanks dude!
We had debated over purple for the wheels but we think it'd be too dark and dark wheels dont work against the grey when the car is on track, moving etc!
Kinda thinking it should be a slightly brighter colour, i'm looking at a mixture of light bronze/dark gold and get a pair of XXR 527's for the front to match the rear!
Kawasaki Green maybe or Mazda True Red ? Red on grey always looks awesome...
Great build. Keep it up and keep us posted.
blue againsrt grey works well!
