Very beautiful! One of the best IS I've seen with a body kit. Lovin the white wheels. Its cool that you actually drift your IS, you got some skills .

Yeah, the bumper cracked in half, and paint started flaking off... I dropped into a 6 inch deep hole in the ground coming around a blind turn, and the bumper got all messed up. Damn construction!

I enjoyed meeting you at the April big meet this year. I was the guy who complimented you on the rare red/5 speed 1Gen. What great pics.

Unfortunately I have nothing original to add ...

Beautiful red IS there and way to go on actually doing drift with it. I think that's one of those things that lots of us on here know it can do, but never actually do it ourselves haha.

Alignment specs are probably not optimal for anything other than drifting, but the camber is set to -3 degrees all around, and the toe is at 0

Mod list is as follows:

-Full C-West Aero
-Stance GR+ coilovers
-Altezza grill cut to fit bumper
-Altezza visors
-Perrin Shorty antenna
-Buddy Club wide bucket seats
-Tom's shift ****
-Megan Racing y-pipe
-Ghetto straight pipe cat-back
-17x9 +38 Desmond Marquis Promoda wheels
-18x9 and 18x10 +25 AME Tracer FS-01 wheels

How did you get your camber to reach -3 degrees?
