I think that's a popular drift setup, should be lots of fun! Welcome! Don't forget to check out the conversions section. pose you cam question in the Gen 3 Internal section for best results.

Ive always thought one of those or a 200sx with a LSx and a turbo or 2 with the Skyline conversion/body kit would be fun & make the real ones look stupid lol
