The Soarer has landed

[cptsideways]

10 weeks of hard work has gone into the making of my new drift car, planned to be competing in the D1 series & at lots of other events too doing demos & passenger rides etc.

Bet you've never seen one of these before

1988 (yes DVLA got it wrong) Toyota Soarer Twin Turbo GZ20

Nice one

[flat_steve]

Leftfield choice, I like it! What happened to your lovely MX-5 then?

[cptsideways]

I still have the MX-5 but it has to go soon as running out of space. The soarer is half the size again!

Thats fantastic.. Now change the wheels and get some nice retro ones on, and take the stickers off! . Nice car. Can't be many of those in the country! Love the older jap cars. They have a certain thing about them. Like the older square silvias, etc.

I have some original RS Watanbe's for her, she looks cool on those. Stickers are on for the season off to have sponsors logo's applied this week too.

My kinda car!

Thats excellent.

Mrs GMan bought me a voucher for Drift Academy at Xmas. Just need to get around to using it but I can't wait to get my Skyline down to see you guys.

[turbo-tastic]

Oh yes That is cool.

Will you be drifting at Rotorstock again (remember me from last year. The guy with the dog )

I'm taking the S13 down as I have 4 spare wheels with crappy tyres to kill.

Those Watanabe's are almost ientical to the wheels I had on my tubby. Mine were grayish, with a shiny strip on the very edge of the rim. very nice wheels in my opinion!

[cptsideways]

Identical to mine

Bit of a thread resurrection, but it wasn't your car I caught the odd glimpse of in 5th Gear doing donuts was it?

[turbo-tastic]

I think it was

Theres a couple of threads on SXOC about it aswell. Shame they didn't have more of the drifty stuff, and less of Tom Ford.

Or more of the Girls Aloud, and less of Tom Ford

Well spotted, I was in there amongst all the smoke missed it on the TV myself though

I take it they used a clip on myself & Julian Smith in his blue Skyline?
