hey we thought show show post some pic of our drift car were building over the winter. its still in progresss so we will post pics as we go.

this is the car b4 we started to strip it for the build.

heres a pic with the motor out and getting it readdy for the new engine.

we had to cut the rad support cuz the engine were putting in wount fit.  
 ![http://i664.photobucket.com/albums/vv9/180sxjay/DSC01845.jpg](http://i664.photobucket.com/albums/vv9/180sxjay/DSC01845.jpg)

we had to make a custom spoiler because the car is going to be going very high speeds so we needed to keep it planted to the ground.  
 ![http://i664.photobucket.com/albums/vv9/180sxjay/DSC01856.jpg](http://i664.photobucket.com/albums/vv9/180sxjay/DSC01856.jpg)

because the car is going to go to differant tracks the spoiler needed to be adjustable, so we can adjust it according to the track.

x2  
I can’t tell if this is a joke thread or not.  
I hope you’re not seriously using a cut up hood for a “spoiler”.  
You want to keep it planted at high speeds. So you use half a hood for a spoiler. Then you cut out the roof???

I think that spoiler is perfect.  
Function over form. But in your case, it looks good AND performs.

hotness…lol

it’s not just that, the rear quarter looks like it got hit as well.

There’s a hell of a lot of spoilers out there for serious track\drift that are adjustable…

maybe the spoiler ain’t a finished product but I can see why farmer and others think it’s a joke, I was digging the start off car to begin with, guess we’ll have to see what happens but seems like you guys are doing some unnecessary fabricating _to each their own_ lol

I hope to God that car was either a bondo queen, or you didn’t use the same car for the following pics as you did in the first one…

Lose and fail. Both. Together.
