    Bit hard to remove the seat out of Zweett's car when it doesn't exist.

    Long story short; it can be done, as you've seen, but its not the easiest car to drift - regardless of how much or how little weight you remove from inside the cabin.

    The problems are overall weight, the length of the wheelbase and to some effect the flex in the chassis.

    All i know is it powerslides like a Mutha F&#%er (that very means good) if you throw it around a bend at around 80-100km/h in the dry, which makes me think it could be what i call a "performance drifter" drifting to go faster round a corner not jsut to look good. But i don't think i should be trying to drift on normal roads so havn't tried :p

    Be very very careful with stock suspension though, you can get quite a "kick" when you right it up again.

    Since getting new Coil overs - lowered another inch + 2.5 cambre on the rears, it slides beautifully round corners at high speeds
