Ive ordered a rather sexy body to build into a full on JDM drift car.

Im gonna run a Nissan R32 GTR body and it will hopefully replicate a real car as much as possible. Ive a few cool ideas on what i want to do...

These include a full aluminium cage aswell as real fabric window nets amongst other things

Kinda like this but im thinking white..
