I live in Portsmouth so I am quite Central, to be fair the hardest thing is going to be stripping the car and prepping it for a fibreglass kit etc, I am thinking of removing all the panels and replacing them with fibreglass ones, but obviosly I am still learning.

I have the car in my parking space at home where my MG should live and I have to find a garage or something similar to start getting the work done.

The good thing is the wife is really into drifting so tea would be on hand the majoirty of the time.

I suppose the most important thing to begin with is going on the scrounge for things like bucket seats strut braces etc i really want to get this started and really don't want to be spending 1,000's though I have a few quid tucked by for essentials like a GTS lump and gearbox.

It can be fitted by is not an easy install as the prop needs modifying as to doies the gearbox tunnel in the car.

Where do you live ??

Drop a PM with you email address and I will send you the pictures of her, as soon as you see her you'll realise this is a decent car solid, not an MOT failure and I have already spent 500 on a tune and brakes service etc, jsut feel she is being wasted and want to give her the chance to strut her stuff with the BIG biys what do you reckon ??

Hello Stamford !! if you PM your email I'll send all the pictures and if you want you can have a look over the car as it is in Portsmouth anyway, I was kind've hoping that as long as we kept the cash down to a minimal it was something that maybe we could both take on board or I can do this with some help and guidance. I have pretty much made up my mind this is what I want for my car and I would rather turn her to a drift car then try and create a show car etc. I have the car all I need is some people with the time. UI'll also PM my numbers address etc and would be more then happy to meet up when ever and what ever time work permitting.

Should be good espiecally for next year at some meets etc.

Matt

You should go on the 200SX forum and look for Gerry Poore.......he was one of 'our' karting drivers and works for Halfrauds.......he developed a drift car for them and also has 2 or 3 of the cars himself......hes a total petrol head and a genius with his car.........he uses his on track days by the way.

If you can't find him there........then I will try and introduce you to him but I warn you........hes not the fastest guy at getting back to you hehe!
