I've invented a new sport, THE OFFICE DRIFT. This is kind of based on the glass of water in the Fujiwara Tofu Shop AE86 in Initial D, combined with being without my car at varios occasions.

Objective: To do fancy footwork, side steps, and slides, all whilst carrying your hot cup of coffee back to your desk.

Rules: Yet to be defined, But spillage is frowned upon.

Scoring: As this is an artistic mpresion there will be two sets of scores, similar to the floor routine in gymnastics, for Artistic Impression, and Technical difficulty. These two scores are then graded against the level of the coffee in your cup. IE The fuller it is the higher you score.

There are bonus points sytems available also, these can include office drifting around the boss, carrying two cups, and just about anything.

Help me share this wonderful new sport to the world, make your next coffee break more interesting, do a big power over coming out of the kitchen ad keep it sideways all the way to your desk.

OFFICE DRIFT WHENEVER POSSIBLE AND POST YOUR STORY HERE!

I think the final setting was thursday night, two weeks ago. That was the last thing I can remember doing, and didn't even realise it at the time. But I can specifically remember making noises whilst doing a 360 through the door before offloading the drinks and performing a perfect park job on the couch...then ofcourse, this ended up leading to stumble the stairs and into the taxi :lol:

Huh! ... great idea Doc..

I have been office drifting for a week now (on and off as the confidence fluctuates), and today my manager caught me in a huge drift (Power over -- moved into a Fiento -- then onto a Sido)...

No, i didn't lose my job or get frowned apon by him... he actually challenged me to a drifting duel .... "we'll drift for pink slips he says" .. so i'm like whoaa! ... totally up for it ... then b4 i know it, he performes a massive drift in front of this presentation with all these parters in the next office and .. well, i just couldn't compete ... he had the guts to perform a power ower with opposite lock not once, not twice, but 4 times without spilling a drop or breaking a sweat!

bla bla .. lost my mug .. so any suggestions to the best style of mug for office drifting?? .. i need to beat this manager!

As I discovered the other day by mistake, a spray of Mister Sheen on your floorboards will add spice to your Home/Office Dooorifto session. There is now a frictionless section on the left hander from the kitchen into the dining room before you swing right to make it through the door to the living room and the grip of carpet. Get it wrong and it's straight into the lounge chair quickly followed by your toasted sanger and Milo. Get it right and you're a king! :D

Floorboards+Mr Sheen+Explorer socks=Ultimate Indoor Drift setup

or does when anyone else confront a crowd in a major shopping centre, you mock downshift, quicken your pace and weave your way thru the people, followed by a triumphant handbrake 180 when you get thru???

i do this all the time at parra westfields in the foodcourt on a thursday lunchtime, (close to uni) most of my friends think im nuts but they are starting to join in...

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
