If you can afford it, yeh go drift, i'm sure it would be a hell of a lot of fun... I'd love to race cars, or drift in events but cant afford it.

When im earning better wages in a few years i might be able to... I am only a P plater, & an exceptional one at that! hahah.

how about doing all that and actually making it handle.. driving like a machine on the track instead :wave:

Drift is overrated..

p.s. there are stack of HR31 that drif.. go to any drift day and you'll see a few out there.

im confused. let me get this straight, you just purchased a nice ride. now you are thinking of respraying it and also turn it into a drift mobile. I think someone saw the jap spec orange r31 that was on one of the car magazines and wants to imitate. Although, if you have that kind of money to spend, by all means go for it.

The car they're talking about is the R31 House HR31 that came over from Japan for the drift nats.

Last year BOWZER participated in the drift nats, as well as a few other 31's.

Pics from last years drift nats

now everyone is building a "drift" car, full respray, vetrex body kit, deep dish wheel.

But how many people really able to afford drift a car like that?

a small error will cost u the bodykit or a wheel. U can see MANY example that people give up drifting their car after build up, then what's the reason of building one?

:werd:

As the title says, im wondering about what to do with the HR31. My first point is that there aren't that many HR31 GTS's on the road, my counter to that is that there aren't too many GTS's drifting,

Please guys tell mw what you think I should do

Your input would be helpful

Ok let me get this straight...From the couple of topics you've put up here, your 13 and its your dad's car yeah?? So why are you asking us what YOU should do with your dad's car?!?!?!?!?!? Im sorry but doesn't make sense to me hey

As for what i rekon your DAD should do with it, he should just leave it as it is, maybe oriantate it slightly towards track work but i wouldn't be touching it....

I read somewhere that drift is becoming the new "rice"...Im agreeing more and more every day

Right Boof, firstly my dad doesn't have time to go on the internet, so I do it for him, if you want to right stupid comments to a 13 year old, by all means go ahead, im just hear for POSITIVE comments, and constructive critism, and since when has drifting become the new rice, about 3 months ago it was huge, to my belief

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
