GBE Drift Car round up!
Drift Car heaven at GBE.
Over the past few weeks we've had quite a run in drift cars, I guess this shows how popular drifting is at the moment!
The highlight has to be "Rusty Slider" - a Ford 100E Prefect. Well the shell of a 100E at least!
From this:
To this:
Tom, who owns the car, has done an incredible job and it's a real credit to him, the car is running a Nissan CA18DET engine with a Link Monsoon ECU.
See more pictures and info on the car here on Tom's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rustysliderdrift/
Here is the graph, not bad for such a small car (306HP and 285 lbs/ft):
Also in the workshop and the dyno we've had this awesome little BMW Compact with a 1JZ swap:
And an ex-British Drift Championship Chaser JZX90:
This Chaser has seen some serious abuse, but that's what drift cars are for right? :) - again this car is running a 1JZ and a Link Storm, once the map is finished it'll run some serious horsepower.
The BMW is a "home built" project again running a Link storm ECU. The car has caused us 1 or 2 issues, but we are hoping to see good power from this too!.We imagine the owner is going to have a lot of fun with this car! Video's to follow we hope!
This has been quite a picture heavy blog, so apologies for that, videos will be up on YouTube in the next few days.
