I know this maybe not to some peoples taste lol ive built this car for drifting but is road legal.
it has to run mega camber and 4"longer bottom arms to gain over 70degrees of steering lock (running team sunsets angle kit) and on the front im running ET-05 9Js which doesnt help

Ahh I don't think I can make any BDC events, I'll have to see. Would be nice to get some nice drifting photos of a zoner with something special (like epic lock!)Teeside autodrome is a fair ole distance from me too though

That's some serious lock...
I would assuming you would have to modify the inner arches for wheel clearance?

not the cleanest engine bay at the moment ive gotnew bmw covers to go on, here it is :
nothing inside the arch was cut/modified apart from a longer fexi brake pipe, the strut has a relocation plate on which brings it out to gain clearance

Whilst not to my taste. It looks well built to perform a task. Nice lump up front also.
