On the other hand the farthest thing people went in terms of drifting here in the UAE is this:

I dont know if they're holding up well nowadays but they want to go where you want to go..

the older 2004/2005 one's are just as cheap as 350z's but are usually automatics, its easier to find a manual 350z. They are around 35000-50000DHS depends on the condition

I was thinking about that, But the only garage that i seem to know is Tensai tunning in Mussafah, i've been asking around but no one seems to know so far.. Would it just be the axel that would need to be removed and program the ECU? i'm guessing that would take around 3-4 days. But do they do a good job here? Where? Price?. The way i see it, in this country everything is doubled, price...time...literally everything haha.

No bro it not that simple! well first of all you need to buy the RWD coupler from PPG or some other company! then need to be installed in place of the centre diff,
then the front axles are cancelled and that it.
ohh you might have to give up the ABS on you car too :grin:
Well in long story but the reward is priceless :!:
ive never had as much fun in my evo in 4WD mode, it worth every cent i paid.

+1 tensai is the best bet for this kind of job!!! they did a very very very goood job on my gear and the conversion to RWD on my evo (Y)
