    lol I wasn't too sure what to make of it. If it's a drift car, shouldnt it be running a forced fed setup as oppose to a naturally aspirated lump to gain silly amounts of instant torque to start the rear wheels spinning? I don't see that setup giving massive amount of drifting action unless it's in the wet

    These things are wicked guys the guy that converts them lives round the corner been taken out in a few of these!

    They bike carb them because they are carbed engines so far easier to put them on than put the injection system on.... think they push out around 160bhp and sound schweet!... Proper beasts, if you went in one you would not think it was a waste of an engine!

    No, not at all.

    Take an ae86 for example... it's just a 1.6 twin cam... very popular for drifting.

    That car is wicked. Best use of an F7P I've seen in ages!

    NA throttle-response is good for drifting
