Devil Pig Drift / Track car S14 Ls1v8
Hey everyone. Im new to the forum. Name is Mybo.
Been following the drifting scene since early days. about 5 years now. Mostly just watching from the side lines. Taking the time to do research, on what i should do.
Now its time that i take part. The itch is just too much
Thought id share my project with the boys.
I originally paid a local "tuner car builder" to build me a drift car.
Long story short.
After 2 years a decided to build it myself. Fetched all my stuff, lost a whole bunch of money
and here we go

1 - you shouldn't lift heavy stuff with your back like that, use your legs.
2 - nice project, good luck! This has lots of potential!
