Default Rear Engine Rear Wheel Drive EF/EG/SI/DelSol

I am new to this site and could use some tips on getting more people to build this kind of tire smoking drift beast.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaPOxe2Q4Q4
Also same s/n on photobucket. Many mods and many hours of custom labor but not much on the cash side, well not as much as it could have been.
Front ef everything, took the cv axles apart to keep the berring end still in the hub and torqued.
Interior, eg cluster, custom stainless, power windows, locks, 4pts, buckets....
Rear eg full k member, shocks, steering ( welded ), si sway, upper camber inner and outter, sohc jdm zc, header, intake, cam gear, etc...

Overall,
Hurst roll control line lock for the front wheels, bleach water squirters for rear tires, keg fuel cell, del sol roof shocks from trunk for hood, del sol mid window, 32oz cup holder, push button start, p28 chipped, slotted and drilled rotors, hydro eg clutch setup under the dash, eg wiring, hid's, aluminum radiator, welded differential, ef cat and resonator, exedy clutch and more. Te only thing that doesnt work is the gas guage as I never installed one in the keg.

Anyone local to Puyallup Wa. that is savy with this forumn I am game to let anyone take notes, measure, ask whatever, etc as long as it is posted and pictured for the mass's and linked to me somehow. I have pics, videos, spare parts, knowledge, tricks etc and am no mizer. Want power windows in your ef hatch? I have pics on how I did it for 25 bucks at a junk yard.

this thread is win!!

looks like you did a hell of a job on it. props

must have awful weight distribution though. i'd be scared shitless to go around a corner quickly, or even slowly if it were wet out

With the keg full 15 gallons and the 3/8x2 angle iron I used to triangulate the cage for the keg shes got a little weight. It rails corners in the dry, is ok in the rain, but all pumped up driving in slippery well, lets just say a little mini drifting is some time required for excited conditions. The biggest draw back to the cornering is my total penny pinching cheapness of welding the differential. 1 tire skips alot in parking lots and shape turns.

I still have the hope that 1 day out at the track someone will loan me some nasty drag slicks so I can see if I can wheelie off the tree so I dont want to get carried away with balance weight yet. + the snows coming and my go kart has heat, cup holder, a roof and I bet even if I dont make it far I bet it will be fun and I will still have warm *****. 1800 miles since build and I am on my 5th set of tires.

Good job on the fab work. I know it wasn't easy.

Here is a drag Civic that my friend built and ran about 4-5 years ago:

Top notch custom fab thats for sure. Impressed with the setup. Creative and obivously you choose smoky rear wheel burnouts as the purpose. Though I would be curious how it does at the drag strip.

I will get to uploading more pics shortly, I have a great net connect but the worst laptop with no battery and a few wires twisted together. It is a time consuming process.

Saw your car on youtube a while back. I was wondering when you were going to post it up on here.

Sweet ride, now 240s at drift day will have to deal with Hondas.
