Looking at it, I think they've got heat shields around so that the gases should escape without burning anything.

The exhaust system is wrapped apart from the "aero turbine" silencer :lol: It looks 10x cooler in the flesh! If i recall correctly, it might be road legal as well :twisted:

Nice, but comments like "Wow that's a waste of engine lol." make me dislike the drift scene even more..

Waste of a good engine, really? Look at Peter Schmidt's 360 build, all titan suspension from a Formula 1 car, custom built trans axle and 2.75l dry sump redblock with a compressor AND a turbocharger... SR20 doesn't look that much superior anymore.. :roll:

Of course if SX Nissan is a some kind of an awesomly valuable vehicle for someone, then it might seem like a waste of an engine but really.. It makes me see red when people talk about 300-series like everyone would own and build these like we couldn't afford something else also... :roll:

Awesome build anyhow, but the crowd is something I can't relate to...

Fuse, I too felt this way until I realised that half the people on DW don't even have licences and just hang around because they watch glossy videos of Japanese drifting on vimeo...

Realistically the people who actually drift are good chaps, as you know from the ones that exist on here.
