I told you the night before I was leaving at 6am, you went out on the pi** mate! It's your own fault!

Nice pics fella, I think its time we had our own section titled
DRIFT ZONE.

Post Wed Aug 31, 2005 1:07 pm

Drift Zone sounds good!

Here's one from Driftworks of me giving a wave.

thats a cool picture

.....now go get welded diff haha...

Post Wed Aug 31, 2005 9:27 pm

The diff locks up okay, just needs a touch more power.

Post Wed Aug 31, 2005 9:51 pm

yeah, i could do with either more power or a much shorter final drive..

my old LSD was great for the courses similar to what we had on monday, just used to bury my foot and chuck it about haha. was easier in a way, but more difficult in other way.

what ratio is your LSD?

Post Wed Aug 31, 2005 9:59 pm

Mine is 3.91, yours is 3.46 innit or summat?

On the longer track I had to 'mange' up the straights when Jonbuoy was in the car through lack of power!

Was ideal for the shorter track, just needed 30bhp or so more.

Post Wed Aug 31, 2005 10:33 pm

Great pics and vids boys.Shame i couldnt go. I need a 325 to cain tho! lol

Post Wed Aug 31, 2005 10:36 pm

"manji", i saw you doing that. looked good:)

yeah mines 3.46 its stupid. 2nd gear tops out at way too fast.cant keep the revs up enough, have to clutch kick it a lot.

my 3.91 used to feel like it was running out of puff going round big roundabouts you know like massive motorwat style roundabouts.. i'm gona try a welded up 3.73 next that might provide a happy medim

Post Wed Aug 31, 2005 10:40 pm

Yeah, I reckon a 3.73 or maybe 3.64 would be ideal.

Plus I still want 230bhp ish!

Post Wed Aug 31, 2005 11:32 pm

yeah haha. and me..more power would be nice....but i reckon i'll stick with a lowly 2.5...and then go up to massive power all in one go... like some ridiculous amount of power....probably achieved with some kind of expensive engine

i like the lower power makes me work more and not be lazy.

Post Thu Sep 01, 2005 1:54 pm

my 3.73 lsd is fine but running out of beans on the bigger track.... so was having to drag on the handbrake (not very successfully i add)

Post Thu Sep 01, 2005 5:23 pm

Dave where did u find that pic? did they get any of my massive powerslides on camera?

Post Thu Sep 01, 2005 6:13 pm

On the driftworks forum mate, there is one of your car in a rare non-drift moment.

They must have missed your drift somehow!

Post Thu Sep 01, 2005 6:17 pm

bollocks all my photos are shite too
