um, you already have one. &nbsp; our bumper is an aftermarket 180sx bumber......I've seen numerous videos/pictures of them with our bumpers...if you think about it....our bumpers are better for drifting since we don't have a low lip...it'll slide over a curb without cracking.

also, it's not a bumper, it's a front fascia <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>


BTW....you might want to specify what bumper it is that you want.... <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

i think he's talking about the drift style bumper.. its such a bitch they make it for everything except the S13.. even make it for trucks?!..

i would say the only way is to get a S14A?the 97-98.. bumper and you would have to cut it .. like the owner of pacific rim and then you would have to get it to fit the S13 front end..

btw you are talking about putting it on a S13 front end right? not the 180?..

a drift bumper? are you serious? what constitutes a "drift" bumper from a regular one? is it one with a bunch of cracks and rock chips in it from running into stuff?

i guess i'm just not "hip" to what all the young kids are doing these days

The Drift front end is from street weapon kits, and I think it is stupid to be considered a drift front end when it is fiberglass, and on my friends 200sx, he hit a pothole and it completely fucked it over. &nbsp;and yes they do make it for a Tacoma &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/butbut.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':but:'>

It is called the Drift kit, you can see it in their adds in Import Tuner, and I believe Turbo... They make it for Cavaliers, 200sx's, like I said before, Tacoma, Civics, all kinds of mainly FWD cars... 200sx w/ Drift Kit (http://www.streetweaponkits.com/cgi-bin/STRstore.cgi?user_action=detail&catalogno=20095-DR02)

How does a front aero make a car more 'drift friendly'?

Hmmm I quit reading import mags, there nothing more then drivel written to generate more money for there advertisers. They just write what you (the normal half witted moron) want to hear. This "drift bumper" is the most obvious example of how the import scene has turned into nothing but a cash cow &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>

Very Very true ca18guy, IMHO, the only "import" magazine that is worth a damn is Sport Compact Car, just because a lot of the time they actually have some valid information about things like SR swaps into S13s, stuff of that sort. &nbsp;With that front end, it makes driving virtually impossible on a account of its size, and it is just too damn big

I don't know guys, almost all the cars I see drifting do have bodykits...as it's mostly for show...so a completely stock bumper doesn't cut it. &nbsp;so I can't disagree with getting a kit.

also, the cars I see are usually lower and their bumpers are lower...so all in all, I actually kinda like the kit...but if someone asked me what it is, I'd tell them it was a gift, don't know the name. &nbsp;I think that naming a body kit "new drift kit" is kinda gay...especially since most of the cars are FF! &nbsp;LOL


to me, the stock s13 240sx front fascia is the best drift fascia....not as cool looking, but more functional.

Sorry guys if I want a kit, but I wasn't asking for the street weapon crap. I didn't really mean specifically the "drift Bumper" I am looking for the s13 conversion that includes an aftermarket bumper instead of the stock due to the fact that I would probably end up wanting to put a kit on my car anyways.

A REAL Drift bumper would be no bumper and a large fmic. Or a bumper held together with tape and lots of scratches. The best thing about it is you could do it for free. Juss crash your front end or tear off your bumper. Only thing you have to buy is an fmic.

Hardcore drifters are the biggest cheapskates in the world.

I agree... a 'real drift' bumper is to not have one at all
