Looks pretty good mate but not really for me, whatever i buy it has to be black and stockish body.

LS7 RX7 :eyebrows:

 

Are you sure you'd be okay chucking one around? I drove one a year ago and although fitted in okay, it was all a bit cramped when it came to driving the thing, if you know what I mean!

 

I'd not be driving it - it's Mr P! If it breaks he can afford to fix it :)

Ill test drive a few more cars before i decide yet, no rush, as you know with a bucket seat you can get them super low and far back so not really worried about fitting in one.:)

I have a couple of suggestions for you jamie :D

I love s15s . rare and cool looking.

 

How about a toyota century? a bit retro and still retro jap drift style?

Or even a MkIII supra?

Or the old skylines if you can find one! (i think these are both different oldschool skylines?)

Or one of these. 240sx i think? Stick an RB26DETT in :p

Or be a bit very different and get one of these.

Not RWD but it would be an interesting drift project to convert it to rwd. I guess the drive train from a corolla or something would fit :p There is one for sale in northampton i keep driving past and think i should buy just for the fun of having crazy doors :p

who you bought these from jezz?

 

A salvage company in Japan. Low grade imports. They havent accepted my offer on the S15 yet though (They want £4k IIRC) I only wanted it to thrash then break up. :D

The R33's on its way though.

Sounds like a plan Jamie. You got a budget in mind for the base car? (If you don't mind me asking of course :) )

 

Not much on the base car, should be able to get something clean for under 7k.

 

240z :drool:

 

You seen the Darius vids Jamie? That is one of my favourite cars evar :D

 

Love his car:cool:

200sx is a great VFM car, but looks a bit drab, none of the pics of the modified ones have any real wow factor. The RX7 is such a nicer looking car, and light too.

 

Yeah, although i'd say ultimately the 200 was an easier car to control (Although i haven't pushed a Rex to the limit :D )

 

I think the RX7s buzzy nature makes it more fun though, the 200 can be a little sedate.
