Re: My S14 Drift Car Build Thread (soon to be littered with media content)
Thanks for all of the complements guys - and thanks for the heads up on the RS lips, those are cheap.
I spent all day today getting the new front control arms on and bleeding the coolant system. At the end of the day I was able to take it out on another little shake down lap up and down the street. This time it was dark out and my headlights aren't wired up yet, so it was pretty sketchy since there are dips and sewer lids that stick up like 3" off the road.
My good friend Mike came by and took some HD video for me with a camera that's actually worth a damn, so you can actually hear the motor!
The downside from today is the brakes still aren't working after another bleeding, so I am going to flip the little vacuum thing on the brake booster and make sure that isn't backwards. The pedal basically goes to the floor and the brakes barely work at all...making my test drive all the more sketchy.

The last video I may have been revving it to like 3k, it is basically instantaneous slide with the slightest blip of the throttle.
About to go diagnose the brake issue now.
