yeh the arab videos are interesting, tho i dunno if its 'drifting'. they're all front wheel drives carrying alot of speed, with a little handbrake thrown in for good measure, dont get me wrong, im damn sure i couldnt do that like them, and its fun to watch, i just dont htink its drifting.

and as for the titles, crazy arab drift should be renamed 'stupid arabs stand on road side while different stupid arabs attempt to lose control of there cars at high speed'. a bit long but much more fitting

PS - just saw the one where the guy gets hit, and im sure that killed him, so yeah, my new title is even more fitting!

Gets hit? I know there's one where one dude starts running, and the car slams the back of another parked car, but the guy didn't get hit.

As for police, I don't think they're as active as ours are. ;o)

The speeds they do this at are boggling though, hey!? And around trucks on main roads etc. Crazy =-]

Yeah Ive seen that clip of the guy getting hit cause he wasnt fast enough to get out of the way. Im pretty sure the guys dead as well due to the impact from the car which sends him flying quite far, crazy arabs haha.

don't have a link, just have the video. will load it up sometime. it isn't actually on a street, its on a track. the cafe thought was just something that poped into my head.

but i just came across this shizzle. this guy is nuts. he gets it past 90 degrees then pulls it back....on an open road.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
