They’re not played, they just blew up recently because of the whole drift scene.

Now all the ricers think they’re drifters because they have Option stickers and the first season of Initial D on DVD.

i dont believe its because of the whole drift scene… well maybe it is. :dunno: I know that wasnt the reason for me at least. The power to dollar ratio is what won me over.

b18c1 swap - 170hp = $3000

sr20det swap - 220hp = $2400

And the sr20 comes with torque

:tounge: 😉

the drift scene wasnt a factor here either. i dont plan on drifting my CAR 😃

my reason: the car is a STRONG platform to build from! RWD with a 55/45 weight distribution and light curb weight plus there arent many 240 fastbacks in western PA!

im kicking myself for not buying the fastback I looked at, but the guy was a prick, the car was pretty beat(rusted out hatch, shotty interior), he kept telling me the blue book was 2100, and ther was no way I was paying over a grand for this car, + he basicly told me he neglected the car its whole life, didnt change the oil pump when it was scheduled, motor blew, he had another one placed in it… I wasn about to spend 2100 bucks on a beat ass 240 that would die when I needed a car, but damn I wish I could have picked that car up for cheap… used my 6k loan and dumped a sr in it.
