Stray 180sx

[STRAY]

hi guys
Its Justin, (yeah evan i finally came on the site) i joined when i had my convertable s4 rx7.
I now drive the 180sx with STRAY plates, it used to be 'DEXTER'. Its a CA 18 but its highly modified and is capable of producing over 300rwkw. At the moment im only running 18psi n im getting around 255rwkw.
I havent put my royal drift sticker on yet but you will know my car if you see me around. Its 1/2 camelian, with 17inch volk racing rims.
Anyways catch u guys around.

ps the site is looking good.

Thats one mean DRIFT machine. You should go to the track with that sorta power.

[STRAY]

id love to man, but me thinks i have to be more confident driftin it, its so laggy and then comes on boost so fukin hard. But i need new coil packs and plugs at the moment, i had it running 26psi (just under what it was built for) the other day on the dyno and it kept running out of spark and missing something awful. So she is back to 18psi until i spend cash.
Also if i crashed it on the track id be devostated. Zelios is already fixing my bent guards n cracked front bar after a hungover incident with a driveway.

Ive jus got to get confident with the power, its not easy after driving that rx7, man that car was slow (even with it running 1 bar) hehehe, the 180 is an animal.

You will get used to the power alot quicker on the track on a "no speed limit" day at somewhere like Wakefeild Park which is a very confidence inspiring, safe track. It is much safer than trying your car out on the road and your driving would improve much more rapidly if you do some driving courses with instructors. They would explain the techniques of how to control and how to react in emergencies plus its a good way of being shown how to drive your car to the full limits safely. I can't recommend these courses enough.
The likely hood of crashing your car on the road are far greater than on the track at a track day. Plus there is the added benefit of no cops, which feels great. Please don't go too silly in your very highly powered car and become another statistic. This goes to everyone. Thats why i want to organise some days for us further down the track.

[Driftpimp]

all you need is a few runs at drifland... nice and safe - no gutters, and lotsa ppl in the crowds to get you revved up.

With that sort of power youll be able to keep up with the nationals just hope your suspension is up to the task
