myself and fc3sleo are doing this, but have run into many obstacles on the way, mainly being many things breaking down due to the cars age, but the first thing i would say is get the suspension and LSD sorted first, coilovers and a 2-way LSD is the way to go, and then stiffen up the chassis, power wise should be fine, we both have a TII, so stuff like anti roll bars, bushes strut bars should also be thought about,
we also use ours as a daily driver, so you have to think of that too if you also using it as a drift car, o and another thing is the handbrake is pretty useless when the car is on the move, dont think much can be done about that though, (i think :rolleyes: )
Goodluck mate,
Patrick,

nice thanks for the replys, im starting with coilovers and im looking for a LSD, iv\'e had 2 drift spec s13\'s and a AE86 with TRD 2 way coilovers etc. So im know what im doing as far as setup wise.
Im starting from scratch with the car and was just looking for pointers for suppliers etc, and as far as the handbrake goes im probaly gonna put in a hydraulic one as i\'ve heard FC ones are useless.
