So, after looking around for a long time, I have finally found a drifter to build up. It's not your average Drift Build though as the car is slightly out of the ordinary.
Yes that's right, it's a Lolvo!! It's a 740GL Turbo (thanks to Scruffy aka Mike for the model code). It's fully loaded with heated seats and front and rear screens, Bose sound system, leather etc.
At the moment it's running a safe 10psi which equates to around 215-220 bhp. As the bottom end is forged, it will happily run up to around 15psi just by using the manual boost controller. It has adaptive fuelling so it's as simple as removing the battery terminal, turn up the boost, re-attach and fire it up. Allow it to run for five minutes and drive. It's got a welded diff already, so it goes sideways very easily. It's just a case of turn in, clutch kick, and BOOM!!! sideways. It's also running a cheap filter that makes the best noise when it's coming on boost :lol:
I've got simple plans for it, lowering, paint, wheels and strip the interior. The Monaco seat I have will go in it along with a decent harness and that's about it. For the paint, I'm going for an old school hot rod style with matte paint and some hot rod type graphics, all rubbed back to give it an aged look.
I will update this thread with everything happening so if you like it, keep looking in, cheers
