Looks awesome. Any action pics? Are you in competion much, if so how well are you doing? Definately need more pics though.

Ive got some action pics which i'll get up, ive been in D1nz for 4 years drifting a VL with a RB25DET, and some heavily coustomised suspension, my progress has been up and down, but I know im at D1 level, (people are gobsmacked seeing a commodore do that, though its a very good platform for a drift car, its just that you can't buy the suspension ready made like most Nissans, you have to get it purpose built,
now moving into the VR ive had to start over, and it takes a good seaon to get used to a new car in drifting

to date I am the only non japanese car to be doing it, and the only one with a V8

NZ's road laws arent as tough as they are in Australia, you can do almost anything you want to your car as long as you get it certifted

I drove it home after I bought it for about 4 hours but it was a boring old clubsport, after doing up suspension and everthing else its hard to tell.
although my VL felt waaaay better and much more responsive after a 6 point cage, and thats the key since the commodore shell was flimsy
