The guys in the EDC (European Drift Championship) run stretched tyres on their 200sx's, skylines etc. It effectively creates a stiffer sidewall.

and a glass sunroof?
Uhm.... Yeah.... never thought this car will ended up like this.... should be a low budget tramp drifter, I had this shell for ages and put it together in a couple of year between the normal bussines, after all it's quite pimp drifting with sunroof open
I certainly am, but don't talk to me about Megasquirt!
since today there are some changes, bought a M88 engine and a "dicktator" stand alone system, never heard of it before, but wa a bargain
Shame about the tyres! What is the story with you guys in Europe and stretched tyres!? To me, they look terrible and must handle even worse!
I think it looks cool... Otherwise, I dont think I can put 265's around them at least the rear wheels are 12j but my arch isn't wide enough to keep the tyre-thread inside... It isn't a problem when your wheels stick out here in holland, as long the thread is in....

These are two of the most unique styled Beemers I've seen in while. Simply amazing! 8O

By the way, how did you decide on Poo brown, with electric lime interior?

Is there a story? :D

Ive got a small company here in Holland in building rollcages and other constructions for autosports, so the cage had to be some crazy color...
After throwing my brown lighter on the desk next to a fluor-marker I knew it for sure....

Yep... not sure about the turbo Im gonna use

I love the brown also, but I need a sponsor to pay my fun either...

Finally..... Can drop my car another 25mm and there's space for 30mm more offset/wider wheels.
Got a mould, so if someone's intrested, you need to cut the rear arches fo proper fitment.
