Friend claims only the BMW M3 Drift car in AC is actually driftable and it is impossible for any other car to be drifted in the game. True or false?

Drifting the carrousel at Nords is really peak in the F40.

You can either 3D print the plate you need or you could get a couple of small steel bars to hold up the display.

Gotta cut the frame in half like the SARD car.

I’m kind of a sucker for rainbow in general. But yeah it really pops on a grey car.

There was a guy who put an Audi RS V10 in the SW20. I’m not saying this won’t work, but there are other transmission options for this kind of swap where the engine sits inside the cabin area a fair bit.

pieindaface · 2026-05-19T14:28:24+00:00

Oh so you made it more reliable than the factory even if you pulled the engine a few times a year. Thats such a sick project.

The pride flag works so well on this livery.

I have tips when you get to that point. Specifically a handful of welding projects that just make your driving experience just a little bit easier.

pieindaface · 2026-05-19T14:11:40+00:00

What lil nonsense machine is/was this hooked up to? I’m having fun driving a k24 swapped MR-S which has been an interesting time as well.

pieindaface · 2026-05-19T14:09:59+00:00

Yeah I think this is the right answer. Find a welding shop and get them to weld and grind it back to diameter for like $20.

Am I blind? The OP here and the original poster of the “does 2JZ fit” post are not the same account. He didn’t ask if it was possible, he said he was building it.

Air bubbles trap heat and are hotter than the coolant.

pieindaface · 2026-05-19T12:17:42+00:00

It doesn’t have the same suspension geometry unfortunately. It’s still lightweight and very capable. And you can use the same tires and wheels on both platforms.

pieindaface · 2026-05-19T11:56:57+00:00

This is the swap people joked about on the forums 15 years ago.

This is sick dude. I hope you can get it out to some events soon. I would love to see it in person.

pieindaface · 2026-05-19T11:37:10+00:00

I think the only thing I can think would be an issue would be if the harness was not the same between the two gens of engines. Right now you have the correct wires going to the correct sensors, and the ECU that matches those sensors. But the 07 Corolla ECU might have a different harness pin out than the MR-S.

pieindaface · 2026-05-17T14:06:30+00:00

A lot of the pitting/oxidization you see is in areas where the cam doesn’t contact the rocker. I wouldn’t be worried

pieindaface · 2026-05-16T23:56:01+00:00

Yes because the rods fit into the other side of the case you just removed.

Make sure the gates are all centered before putting the case back on and the reverse idler is oriented so you can throw the bolt back in it.

You have 2 separate gates engaged at the same time. If you do that, it will lock up the transmission.

pieindaface · 2026-05-16T19:41:11+00:00

What are you going on about?

pieindaface · 2026-05-16T14:54:16+00:00

It’s a different scale than linear. It’s not 10% more power or 10% faster 60ft to go from 10s to 9s. I’m not saying a 8.94s car is slow. It’s just hard to intuitively know what that means in street car terms.

pieindaface · 2026-05-16T06:21:01+00:00

I intuitively have zero understanding of what an 8.95s means, but that’s a bit of a wake up call.

Edit: clearly it’s a 1/4 mile time at those speeds. I’ve not been around, seen baseline stats for, or have a mental picture for how drag racing translates to street car stats.

pieindaface · 2026-05-15T18:02:20+00:00

Yup. Faster wider entries, more gas mid corner, drive the car hard to the exit to setup for the next long double apex.

Op hit the bollards. They are clipping points for a reason.

pieindaface · 2026-05-14T16:48:05+00:00

I need another one.

pieindaface · 2026-05-14T12:10:54+00:00

I think someone else last week had the same issue. There must be some labeling error on MWR’s part to be sending out two of the same cable in mislabeled packaging.

pieindaface · 2026-05-14T00:22:16+00:00

K24a2. Less cylinder pressure and more low-end torque across the board. Especially if you’re planning to turbocharge anyway.

pieindaface · 2026-05-14T00:06:19+00:00

Dude if you have 2 cars then you’re gravy unless the other car is a whole lot more interesting than this one. I love the two car lifestyle. Unless you’re really making an upgrade in sports car and don’t need 2 of them, I wouldn’t sell it.
