I really really really want this. I just can't afford or justify it. Which sucks.

Virtually the same engine set up as my 940 had. Say good bye to your oil levels though if you want to drive it daily!! When I did the 15G turbo conversion on mine set to 14psi, it liked to burn the oil more than a Honda, hence the start of the V8 conversion :lol:

I will say this though, they are very rapid with that engine set up!

That's pretty cool. Seen quite a few old skool RWD drift potentials recently.

Trying to persuade my missus to sell her Beemer, have my Mazda 6 for her and then I go and buy something fun with the Beemer money, have drifting in mind. Still working on it, wearing her down I hope! :lol:
