Street drift in D1

[Evan]

** taken from jdmstyletuning

D1GP.co.jp announced last week they are starting a new 'street legal' series to try and get an interest of those drivers without the funding to compete within the high cost class of the D1GP international series.

The specifics for those who cant read japanese:

- must have legal road-going documents (ie rego compliance ect)
- no tubbed fenders/one-off metal body components
- no carbon / beamless door replacements
- no airjacks
- no custom / standalone relay / fuse switchboxes
- brakes must stay stock dimensions; no swaps from other models of same make or not
- no sequential gearboxes
- no motorswaps from other model into other model, same make or not
- no fuel cells
- no plexiglass window inserts and replacements allowed
- no complete dash replacement parts
- must retain OEM amenities (ac/navigation/heater)


Should be interesting to say the least!

No engine swaps or large brake upgrades? It sounds like a good idea but i'm not sure about those two rules. It'd rule out alot of cool cars, and what about the hachis, alot of them have engine swaps in them, even street drift ones....
