    Would be a bit dodgy considering the chassis of the car will be under a lot of stress when your drifting and the welds would be likely to crack.....

    but if i was to weld in some metal pipe going from front to rear it would help it not pull itself apart no?? got some strong scaffolding pipe there and a bitta box iron so would be fair strong. need it to be any wayt for the 450 bhp engine in the front part !

    only askin as i have everything there and be cheaper than buyin a shell
