cliff notes:
- bought it as a stocko p.o.s 2 years ago with nothing (no wheels, no exhaust) for $14k, had to bring my own wheels, drove it home from GC to Bris, got defected at Coomera BP on the way, fkn lul
- started learning to drift in it at QR and Archerfield, made a thread about it - http://www.boostcruising.com.au/forums/ind...howtopic=678278
- only modded stuff that needed to be modded (didn't want to spend a tonne of cash on it etc...ha)
- somewhere along the line decided drifting was too expensive, probably when I got on to the 3rd SR in less than 6 months /*hurls*
- turned it into a nice street car, put it up for sale
- sold it for $15k without the wheels, (around $30k down the drain), such is cars, now saving for house
