So fucking stressed out. HELP!
 
So I have been offered the oportunity of a lifetime. My dad's friend's wife is making a drifting video for the sundance music festival. It is featuring all the pros... and she wants me to be in it too to show that anyone can drift. I have a 240sx sitting on my side yard right now with no engine. The problem is that I have to have the car FULLY OPERATIONAL on the 10th... 9 days. almost all my ---- is in the mail, but I don't know if i have enough time. I'm still in high school right now, so I have less than 9 days. If I have my car ready they'll pay for me to go to drifting school, give me a brand new set of falken or yokohoma tires, and put me in the video. I just don't know if it will be ready.

If anyone lives in the bay area and wants to help put a 240 together.. (help, not learn). I am begging for help. come on over some time this week and help me install my ----. I neeeeeeddddd it ready.

Thanks -Alex

incase u forgot he bought it with a blown engine? if i remember right haha... man goodluck but its possible. i took my ---- apart converted it to 5spd and put in a new engine in like 2 days. iono bout learning how to drift in 9 days tho. that's a life long skill needed to be learned over time and practice.

good call on the spun bearing... ya. that engine is gone... it also got some whip cream in the i/m from an experimental nos experiment. I won't have a zillion horsepower with this motor for the event.. it's built for turbo, but i dont have the money or time to turbo it in 9 days. and it doesn't matter i suck at drifting.. it's a clinic!!!! they teach you how to drift, and supposedly a bunch of pros have come out of this clinic.

you can't fix an engine with a spun bearing? I thought some machining and new bearings and it was good to go?

wohoo. someone on a different forum had the idea of just renting someone elses 240 for the day and promising to pay for any damages. good idea.

drifting and saying "well its easy anyone can do it??"


thats a nice way of getting rid of idiots very very fast. while people in rx7's shun this ---- people with 240's praise it. just remember, if your going to hit a guard rail, make shure you keep your foot planted on the gass and go through it and </yourself>

are you thick? it says that it's a ------- clinic.. in clinics they teach you how to drift. no guard rails, and proper instruction.
