You know if you're Drifter..

Something I wanna share from the Net.
(my favorite are mark with *)

You know you're a drifter if...

- When you drive, you look out your side window more than your windscreen.***
- You think the primary purpose of wings is to PREVENT flight
- You are happiest when your street car's tires are worn to racing depth and the wear bars are showing
- When something falls off of your car, you wonder how much weight you just saved
- People remembers you by your car stickers instead of colours
- Passenger seats are luxury items
- You bought a car before you buy a house
- you upgrade your car to Stage 3, and yet you haven't bought a house.
- You think scrape marks on your car is beautiful, and you proud of it like a battle scar.***
- Instead of hidding pornos under the bed, you hide car parts under your bed from your significant other.***
- After winning a lottery, the first thing you'll think off is upgrade your drift car...
- You save broken car parts as "momentous".***
- You quote your street tire wear life in weeks rather than miles. - Your car have more torque readings than HP.
- You love rainy days.***
- You enjoy driving through winding roads than straight highways.***
- You know where are all the clipping point on the route between your house and your office.*** - When you go shopping, you leave shopping cart drift lines on the aisle.***
- You look at empty carparks and stared at it without blinking.***
- You always want to change something on your street car to make it handle better
- You have the urge to dab the throttle everytime you do a U-Turn.***
- You believe that to turn right, you need to turn the steering left.***

You drifted TOO MUCH if...
- Tyre manufacturers send tyre samples in hope of endorsements.
- You spend more on tires than on food.***
- You spend more on car insurance than on house payments.
- You sit in your race car in a dark garage and make car noises and shift and practice your heel and toe, while waiting for your motor to get back from the machine shop.***
- You have enough spare parts to build another car
- Your family members moved the family TV and couch to your garage to send time with you
- Your kids play with car halfcuts instead of toys while growing up.
- You make sure your wife and kids are secured in your car with at least a 4-point harness.
- You make sure your significant other and your kids wear helmets when you're driving.
- More than one racer supply store recognizes your voice and greets you by name when you call - A neighbor asks if you have any oil, to which you query, "Synthetic or organic?" and they reply, "Vegetable or corn."
- After you tell your wife where you'd like to go on vacation she answers: "Why...is there a drift event there?"
- You watched Fast and Furious : Tokyo Drift and you think "I Can do better than THAT!"
- You are the type of person who goes postal when you have to sit in a traffic jam for more than five minutes, yet you can spend five hours in the staging lanes
- You wash your car like it was your firstborn child, you tend to its needs like it was your own body, you protect it like it's your family, then you drive it like you stole it
-Your mechanic names the new wing of his shop after you
- You're tempted to wear your racing suit just to drive to the office
- You get pulled over for doing 150kmh in a 70kmh area but the cops will let you go if "they can look under the hood"
- Small animals and neighbour pets went to hiding when you approach any corner.***
- When you play driving simulation games, you tried to set the car to oversteer and tried to drift in it... even in F1 races.***
- The UPS guy took to taking Steroids so he could keep up with your shipments

Going Faster - Engine Modifications (Mitsubishi 4G63)

The Mitsubishi 4G63 turbo 2.0-liter motor is an amazing high-tech power plant with a huge capacity for increased performance. Straight out of the box, it generates 200/220/240 horsepower, but simple bolt-on modifications can increase that to over 400!

To unleash the increased power from your turbo-charged motor, you need to allow the turbocharger to breath more freely, on both the intake and exhaust sides of the motor. Generally, you should start from the ends of the system and work inward. When you have opened up the intake and exhaust as much as you can, you can switch to a larger turbocharger for even more power. Then there are additional ways to add power to the motor, including electronic add-ons. Note that none of these modifications involve taking apart the motor itself – most of these add-ons can be put on by an amateur mechanic.

All horsepower figures in this page are measured at the crankshaft (as opposed to at the wheels). Horsepower figures we quote here are approximate; as always, “your mileage may vary.”



Stage I - 300 horsepower

These modifications are the first steps to getting more power from your 4G63T.Doing all of these modifications can increase horsepower on a 1G car from 195 to around 300

The modifications generally work best in the order they are presented here. If you do them in a different order, you may find no improvement until you perform the earlier upgrades.


Here’s the Stage I performance checklist, in order:
-Mechanical Boost Gauge
-High-Flow Air Filter
-Compressor Bypass Valve Upgrade (1995+ only)
-High-Flow Cat-Back Exhaust
-High-Flow Catalytic Converter/Off-Road Pipe/Or just remove it
-High-Flow Downpipe
-Boost Controller
-Fuel Pump Upgrade
-Intercooler Pipe Upgrade
-Exhaust System Porting
-Turbo Upgrade (1995+ and AT cars)
-High-Performance Clutch


Stage II -375 Horsepower

Congratulations! Your car now has around 300 horsepower, and (in AWD form) does 0-60 in under five seconds, and can run the quarter mile in under 13.0 seconds.

If it's just not enough, follow the Stage II modifications checklist for 375 horsepower or more.

-HKS Vein Pressure Converter (VPC) or Similar
(The HKS Vein Pressure Converter changes the way the engine measures air flow. It eliminates the restrictive factory MAS (Mass Air Sensor) in favor of a much-less-restrictive absolute pressure sensor. The VPC can easily add 30 hp)
-Turbo Upgrade (if not already done)
-External Wastegate (for race turbo)
-Fuel Injector Upgrade
-Front-Mount Intercooler
-Extrude-Honed/Custom Intake Manifold


*ALL THESE SETTING ARE TESTED AND PROVEN AT THE TIME*
*RESULT MAY VARY
