drifting my cheap volvo 740 TI 1

Drifting my 87 Volvo 740TI (turbo intercooler) w/ 280+k miles

Bought the car for $350. Put about $1000 into it and learned to drift with it. This was the third event i attended and the last with the car. I still suck but im learning :P. After this event the second to third gear syncro was about gone, clutch was slipping, valves on the head were broken, turbo was going out, the gears on the diff were cracking and chipping off.

mods:
3" exhaust
ported manifold & 13c turbo
mbc
cone filter
bov
welded diff
gutted interior
bigger sway bars
strut brace
stock old grandmother suspension!
and some crappy tires!

@heterosapien69

Built another car with a solid drive train....its even a wagon :)

So your gearbox is fucked?

[masterchimself]

@hellboyXsas

Yup'. The stock transmission isn't very strong. Most guys swap a t-5 in.

Im sorry dude, i didnt ment to be angry! But is there something wrong with ur car since u need to shift so often?

[masterchimself]

@hellboyXsas I'm not shifting. I had to to hold the shifter in gear. If i didn't the car would slip out of gear.
