Power/drive train warranty is 5 years so maybe break it at 3?

Have you driven the "Twisted Sisters" around Leakey? Awesome roads!

Even still drifting at low speeds may sound boring but if you actually give it a try instead of screaming "needs moar powa" you'll see that drifting at any speed is exhilarating and requires practice, discipline, and concentration. Don't buy this car thinking you'll be able to go to Formula D stock cause it won't. Find some curvy two lane roads and just have fun, speed doesn't matter in the end, it's just the spirit of the car.

I bought this car specifically to boost it and drift it. I will take this car like my others to the track and drift their road course. No I don't plan on going to Formula Drift but it needs more power to do big drifts. Yes you can get the car sideways at 60 with a yank on the ebrake but you can't hold it. It doesn't have enough power to move itself. Hell my modded Nismo 370Z barely had enough power to hold a drift at 60. We're getting into opinion territory here. You want to enjoy the curvy roads and not care about speed and all of that. That's not me. I didn't buy this car because the ancestor was the AE86. I bought it because I want to hold a nice drift at 60+ and not be restrained by power. Please don't tell me to go enjoy curvy roads, those only entertain me for about six seconds.

Watch this and you'll see where I'm coming from. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udhvbSQn1p0"]Drifting : Rise of the V-8 : Formula Drift (HD) - YouTube[/ame]

And no I don't plan on doing an LS swap, at least for now.

Haha that's the plan. 3 years is already a stretch, I'd be bald before I made it 5.

250-350 whp will make this a dam quick car, nice to see you went with a smaller quicker spooling setup for this car.

You sold a 370z for this? Its gonna cost you more to get this to that level. Whatever works for you. Good luck man. Sounds like you have a plan figured out to suit your needs.

All i heard through that video was "makes it easier". Not that it's necessary.

Yeah I do, thanks. I'm really only aiming for a maximum of like 300whp. I've been planning this for years.

Won't stop until I'm 100% sure that I can't continue.
