    My first e30 vs e30 tandem.

    NOW WITH VIDEO!!!! :D

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7F1Kty4HnOA



    and I left the camera at home. :p

    It was a nice one too.

    Erick (rwdrift) vs Luis (etxxz)



    GT3071R M20 vs OBD1 S52B32

    Luis did thankfully take video of it. Ain't nothing great, but here's his YouTube editing:



    We come in at the last round (~4:11). Didn't come out too good but hey... it was fun. I'm hoping to see some pictures, but my hopes aren't too high.

    PS: Is this like a cockblock? :p

        You're not kidding. Back when he still had the bronzit car, the first time I walked up to him at an event to say what's up, we spoke for 1-2 minutes and then he finally admitted the car was on this whole time. At idle you cant hear anything!

          Can't see the vid at work, but damn I'm excited to see it when I get home.

          Eric, that car looks so menacing, simply awesome! How is your new intake manifold working out? Have you pulled the plugs to see if you are getting consistent combustion across all cylinders?

            The manifold is doing pretty well. The response of that along with the new turbo and shorter gearing has been phenomenal. This car can go faster with much less effort.... and it revs so fast now! :D

            I'm still trying to get used to it, but it's more and more fun as I do.

                  The video is taking forever to load for some reason (some times it does that over here, i don't know)... BUT your car is all sorts of win. I've said it before, but damn! It's nice to see some folks actually driving (or in your case drifting) these cars.

                    Eric do you have a link to a build thread on your car? Nasty stuff, what gearing did you swap to?

                      I wish I was a competent driver.

                      That looks like so much fun.
                      that 24v sounds perfect.

                          We're lucky that the track owner is starting to promote drifting more often. It's not the perfect drifting place, but it's better than nothing! :D

                          I'm just giving mine a nice run before it kicks the bucket. If this car could talk, it'd have plenty of stories to pass around :)

                          Right now I'm on a welded 3.25 diff, thanks to BenM who donated an open diff off his old Schnitzer 7 Series.

                          Just takes practice. It's a blast, and it gets addicting fast!

                          But yes, Luis's 24v sounds sick!

                            Now with quick video!



                            This is all I could find guys. I don't even have a single action picture because all photographers decided to not even shoot at night (when I finally got out of work).
