Nice job on the actual build, its a shame that it will be banged around on a drift track.

And the zip ties... uck.

I was scrolling through the pictures wondering when you were going to start the drift build, then saw this:



spot on. +1 props; looks like a real drift car.

What's funny is from the earlier pics, I said to myself, "These fucktards are definitely Australian".

Then I saw the pic with the American license plate on the Mustang in the background.

The rollcage and front/rear tubing looks awesome, though.

Spun bearing on dyno makes me lol, though. So does pathetic GTX spool.

I'm glad I'm not the only person who's had a hard time with the EMS4. Why live in upside down land and not run haltech or motech?

There wasnt even much hazing. I dont get it. The build was definitely big money. Drift just isnt out thing but any 300+ miata is awesome.

It was a drift build, the point was to crash into a wall after spending a lot of money on bodywork/paint/graphics; the sub-par turbo setup had nothing to do with it.

it was a GREAT drift build. You couldn't ask for better results.

As far as the turbo build? It spooled like **** and couldn't idle. I'd much prefer Soviet's setup, as a bonus, soviets car doesn't look like it would even offend the residents of Skid Row with how cheap and dirty it looked.
