Possible with enough commitment on my 175's, I was running Mich Energy's constantly then though as I lived next to CostcoSteveP wrote:Kaos are you running bald or 155 width tyres something...
1.4 breaking traction in the dry enough to get it sideways with an open diff... never happened to me in either 340's or 2.0 360's! 2nd gear in the wet however...

Sorry for the hijack Nikdev, but I have to show that you can definately drift on dry, with a open diff and even a variomatic (so no clutchkicking!) Allright, it are original wheels..

Yes, you need speed indeed. What about above ^^Frits wrote:Nikdev, are you still driving on open road to the competitions? I do, but its not great..
Most important issue is that when the car gives up, I'll be stuck in a different country with my uber ovlov... (like a few weeks ago with the engine blowup) That sucks bigtime
Yes i do, but I have just upgraded my license so i can take it on a flat bed\trailer. Going to do that next season(but i need a car that can pull it, so i probably need to sell the daily drive 360Frits wrote:Nikdev, are you still driving on open road to the competitions? I do, but its not great..

Where did you get the relocation kit from? Getting firm info on which plates fit a B200/230 is proving tricky...

Nope, it don't.. no horn and need to remember to cancel the indicator all the timeWooDooUK wrote:Alley Cats FTW!
Does your Luisi Steering boss keep the horn and indicator canceling the same as standard?
I have seen a place in the states that sells them.
Thancks guys!
Some other recent pics of the car:

Using it a lot lately, just soooo much fun

Random pic parked as we was watching some local hill climb rally, showing the poke of the wheels:

And BTW I am paying a large amount to Intrax on Monday, so they can start manufacturing front and rear coilovers for me
