Rookie Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Holy shit I envy your fab skills so much, you rule so much at modding cars it isn't funny. All I can say is keep up the good work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpr Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 haha, some cams and it might make it over the hill! yeh its broken about 5-10mm out from where the clutch packs sit. might change to a trd diff like the truneo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furai Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Shit if your struggling over the hill... Sucks about the diff, although you were going hard. I just cant believe how crazy the switches are! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpr Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 yeh its a bit hard to get over there without much power. need take the right line, to carry as much speed as possible through the first corner. where as if you have some decent power, can run a shit line and just mash the gas after switching, and still make it. so its quite good that it forces you to get a good line. i was getting further and further as day went on, but never quite got it right. rest of it is a good change from meremere/skidpan. the last corner/hairpin is pretty choice in a small car. gravity is on your side 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ill have to try it, only way to find out I cant drive/have not enough power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what most young drift kids don't get IMO. They'd be better to start in a starlet or an MX5 than a turbo *insert generic nissan* with high horsepower. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachlander Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Cant wait to try hamptons in the wagon when its going, looks like a heap of fun in a car like that. You managed to link the rest of the track though didn't you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was complaining he didnt have enough power and needed more, made him watch Kpr and he still didnt get it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The correct response is to inform that they need bigger nutsacks. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oftensideways Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 awesome stuff man! you've got some serious skills behind the wheel and behind a grinder/welder. i'm pretty keen to drag the corolla up to hamptons but was worried how it would go being underpowered, your vids are about the first low powered car making a decent effort i've seen. might have to book in for the next DMNZ day.
