This was posted on another forum I’m on. I really like the car… it’s different, haven’t really seen anything like it before… Opinions? I can see this getting a love it or absolutely hate it response. If you have pictures of other cars that are along the same sort of style, post them up too. ![http://violentrunning.squidd.org/galleries/d/20275-3/Untitled_HDR2.jpg](http://violentrunning.squidd.org/galleries/d/20275-3/Untitled_HDR2.jpg) ![http://violentrunning.squidd.org/galleries/d/20279-3/SQD_0003.jpg](http://violentrunning.squidd.org/galleries/d/20279-3/SQD_0003.jpg) ![http://violentrunning.squidd.org/galleries/d/20283-3/SQD_0004.jpg](http://violentrunning.squidd.org/galleries/d/20283-3/SQD_0004.jpg) ![http://violentrunning.squidd.org/galleries/d/20287-3/SQD_0008.jpg](http://violentrunning.squidd.org/galleries/d/20287-3/SQD_0008.jpg) ![http://violentrunning.squidd.org/galleries/d/20291-3/SQD_0018.jpg](http://violentrunning.squidd.org/galleries/d/20291-3/SQD_0018.jpg) ![http://violentrunning.squidd.org/galleries/d/20303-3/SQD_0036.jpg](http://violentrunning.squidd.org/galleries/d/20303-3/SQD_0036.jpg) ![http://violentrunning.squidd.org/galleries/d/20307-3/SQD_0041.jpg](http://violentrunning.squidd.org/galleries/d/20307-3/SQD_0041.jpg) ![http://violentrunning.squidd.org/galleries/d/20315-3/Untitled_HDR4.jpg](http://violentrunning.squidd.org/galleries/d/20315-3/Untitled_HDR4.jpg) ---

That’s ugly as sin and this guy is definitely a poser. Season, please do NOT even mention “drift car”. Most drift cars are nice, it seems like people with shitty cars like to call their cars drift cars even though they don’t even drift it. I think the only guys that really have beaten up cars that can be called “drift cars” are Jesse, Chris St John, Vlad, etc… Most of the others are just posers with crappy s13s that can’t drift. You’ll see what I’m talking about at Shannonville tomorrow. 😃 ---

Yeah its an interesting project. Definitely getting lots of debate around the net which is why they built it. I think a few simple moves would have made it less contrived. - the exhaust, ya sure its Bosozuku etc but the rest of the car is lacking some JDMness, so it doesn’t work, go side exit or something. - The wheels are whack. If you went double over fenders you would be running some dirty 18x12-inch Work -15 offset that were all curbed and shit. Not some bullshit 16s with skinny 60-series tires…what year is it?! - The ride height is weak, obviously you would not see daylight if you were serious. And where the fcuk is the front mount? Don’t tell me its NA. ---

its definately NA, the car is ghetto as fuck. ![http://a167.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/24/l_17882dfd75c26f3b9c84295e3dba8f36.jpg](http://a167.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/24/l_17882dfd75c26f3b9c84295e3dba8f36.jpg) He prolly hucked the silvia front for the seat and wheel. who cares about a front mount? ---

I like it, its got its own kind of style going. Only thing it needs is more lower, less wheel gap. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/jdm-drifter-rat-rod-style/114974.md?page=2)
