Thought some of you Rollaclub members might appreciate a gander at the build photos I have of Matt Harveys ae71. I Watched a large cross section of people in Hobart, including a few small jobs myself (diff, front suspension) make this car happen over a bout a 3 months period, culminating in its first outing alongside its sister car, Lloyd Smiths 1uzfe ae71 for a drift demo at the Symmons plains round of the V8 supercars. Lloyd did a large section of the work at his garage (handy with a spanner as well as a steering wheel is the skid kid) and AzCustom did most of the fabrication work.

 

 

Both cars at Symmons Plains...

Wow ! They get away with all sorts of stuff in drift cars. Belt mounting is far enough away that the belts should be crossed, loose end should go back thru the buckle and they should be much tighter on the bar. Non sealed battery, not ventilated either and uncovered positive terminal. Here's hoping the scuits picked that up before it raced.
