At the recent Prodrift event at Punchestown, the crew from Drift Ireland had a stand with some very cool motors. This A31 Cefiro belongs to Peter Taylor, a regular on the Drift Ireland forums. It's Peter's regular, daily driver and he also confesses to the odd slide on his daily errands. The car currently features the base RB20 with an Apexi filter, autobahn88 front mount intercooler, turbo back exhaust system, TD05 turbo with GT-R injectors and a Power FC.

Up front we have a pair of 17" SSR Professor SP1's 17x9 ET11.

A Bride recliner for comfort and support during the daily runs.

The kit is a bit of a mismatch of unknown items, although Peter has remodelled them somewhat by smashing them and zippin' them back together again.

The rears are 18" SP1's, this time 18x10 ET11. The car has been lowered on Tein drift series coilovers. It's got a 2 way LSD, Driftworks Hicas removal and KTS adjustable front arms.

Back on the inside, we have a Nardi wheel, Bride gear boot, STRI gauges, KTS six point cage. I'll be back shortly with another car from the Drift Ireland crew !

Paddy

I love ceffies... Although they are seen on Aussie roads, we don't see enough of them.  Either they are overlooked, or not enough of them make it over.  Visually, I prefer these cars over the toyota chaser / mark II if we are strictly talking jap sedans.

Anyone got a number on how many Cefiros were made?

Daily?  That sounds awful!  I would have to recommend more water and less Guinness.  Never thought I'd say that!
