If you could build a drift car...

[Captain_ClutchKick]

You wouldn't get an engine reliable and powerful enough for £500, but if you looked hard you could get a fairly recently re-built SR20DET out of a Silvia or a Bluebird or something for about £900 :).

 

Ah, no, the idea is that it is the same car powered by one engine of its own and another from exactly the same car, joined at the crankshaft to make a split straight 6. Not many people mess around with engines like that these days...

Arn't engine too complicated to do that now, wouldn't you have to compleatly re-write all the engine mangment?

would that car not only have like 150 hp from that straight 6 so it wouldent be very good for drifting?

Ah, ok, i see what you mean. Yeah, you only get the odd few people with a lot of money or tuning company that does that these days. I have seen a few examples though.
