Oh, heres one from Sunday at 10:30 at night, can't imagine why the cops would be by the Lincoln Way East football field at that time. Especially interrogating ppl. Thought it was strange so I took pics. Only one turned out decent to post tho. There were 4 cops all together, however not well seen.

You saved 15lbs or 0.015 of a second in the backseat because?

Just wondering/

carpet= gone, tire=gone, lining=gone. More is gone than you can see. Any little bit counts.

carpet= gone, tire=gone, lining=gone. More is gone than you can see. Any little bit counts.I see........

0.050 tenths? Your gonna need a little more than that. Good try tho. What are you going to do if your tire goes flat in.........AssRape City?

Well seeing as how I've never been to the drag stip I don't care about tenths, sorry Drehw. I ACTUALLY practice a thing called drifting, not act like I do on a forum. As far as I'm concerned the back seat serves no purpose, nobody can actually fit back there so there is no point. As for the flat tire out in assrape city:rolleyes:, I bring the spare on long trips.

Oh. so when you are drifting and a tire blowns in ass rape city.......a few miles from your house?

about the backseat, I know what you mean because I have a small backseat also. I hope you have your own room because the misses may not like that metal back there. :tongue:

on about the tenths? I was just wondering.......becasue I thought you were one of those guys who gut the entire car to save 0.08 of a second.

Well if the tire blows then it blows, no big deal to me.( paying for new tire big deal, but walking not big) I can walk an hour home if I have to. Its not like I'm a 90 year old decepid guy. I'm 18 and can move if need be, also no misses, so I'm not concerned about that either.

Good. So when the tire blows, I'll be first inline :lol:

Nice pics.

What kinda paint did you use on all those interior pieces, plain spray can?

Plastic Primer?

Regular Primer?

No Primer?

Sanding?

I've done some interior painting myself, and I came up with about the same silver color you've got there for my caps under the hood by using Duplicolor Chrome and then clearing it (BTW the clear coat dulls the "chrome" color and it turns out a shiny gray)

Ummm, not sure of the brand, but i used 4 coats under coat, and 3 top coat. just regular silver

Turned out nice, guess you implied no sanding no priming,

No, sanding on plastic leaves scars, at least from my experiences.

Dude, trust us, the backseat of an S13 is a fucking joke. The car's better off without it.

Unless you have two mates who are both double amputees.

drew - shut up.

91300 - lose the tacky interior trim paint, gain a stick shift.

when I painted my dash I sanded the plastic lightly then used filler primer. I also wet sanded between coats of paint. I recommend the extra work.

But yours came out good.

What's up with the cop pictures? Something going on?

Suislide, look at my sig, then you'll know how I feel about the auto haha. The paint is just temporary until i get actual brushed aluminum

lose the tacky interior trim paint,

Its not tacky if it looks good :biggrin:

I've got nothing but compliments from people that have seen it in person, or online for that matter but suislide your welcome to change that :biggrin:

Yeah. you just got to highlight the right places.

How do you drift an Automatic????

If you notice next to the shifter is an e-brake handle,
Thats what its all about, plus you can still drop an auto into first/second gear

plus you can still drop an auto into first/second gear

so? You still can't controllably lose traction by downshifting an auto.

I drift an automatic very well if I say so myself, as well as compliments by others:biggrin2:

Drifting is about swinging out the back end of the car around a corner with the e-brake, not burning the tires, although it helps to continue the swing smoothly

There are 4+ ways to initiate a drift, at least if we are talking about actually useful drifting. If you're talking about retarded show drifting then that is another story. And you should be aware that locking up the tires also burns them. :slap:

I've drifted in 2 nearly identical cars, except for the fact that one had a stick and the other an auto. (My '87 325es and '90 325is) Unless you don't know what you're doing, it's way easier to do with a stick. Especially because you don't have to use the e-brake.

...Burning = Spinning in my post...
Sorry for any confusion :rolleyes:


And we were talking about this application, I'll stop posting and let 91300zxtt answer the question directed at him now,

Yes, stick is easier, downshift and spin...

Meh, theres more than 4 ways to drift EC, watch the Drift Bible, I'm not going to explain them to you. Honestly no offense, I don't care what everyone else thinks about how I drift, I do it and its all that needs to be said.

that's why I said 4+. Cause I really have no idea how many there are, I just know that there are more than 4. lol :thumbsup:

Nice Pics 91300zxtt,

Now this thread is off topic even for the off topic forum,
