    Cool!
    I should do that to my style-5s when I get them refinished for summer ;D
    Although I'm probably going non-shine grey or black.

    Since the whole point of drifting is not to have traction the gear box wouldn't be highly stressed.

    for input guys will have a proper sift throght thread on conversion when i get a little more time/sleep, gearbox will take imence battering drifting & my genral driving style. i know it is a fairly low bhp for it's size but reson for 750i must make soo much torque 5tourings are very lardy compared to 200sx and similar and make very good power with few mods so im hoping to make up for the shortcomings with driveabuility (is that a word) no turbo lag & power everywhere + can get low mileage whole car for around £300! got a few thousand to spend when i finish breaking my old car & my friend is a good engeneer. i would never consider taking on a project like this with my very limited spanner skills.
