I really don't see why people always want to turn evos and sti's into drift cars. It is stupid and a waste of time and money.

While this is true, you should not act as though it's not in their bloodline.

No its going thru a complete makeover. The car will be in the Hankook colors similar to our 350Z we will also be campaigning.

Those were for a magazine shoot we did. The rubber is orange so yes orange smoke and skid marks!

Good luck with this, do you have a blog so we can follow the build and racing?

Are you going to do a rwd conversion?
