Nissan Silvia S15 Friends Racing D1GP

Friends Racing D1GP (Drift Championship) S15. Formed in 1999, established in 2011 in Tochigi Japan, Friends need no introduction, specialising in Nissan S15s, they have been prolific in all types of racing from time attack to drifting and continue to strive for motorsport perfection. This car has serious heritage mostly being used around the 2008 D1 Championship and truly encapsulates an era of drifting that is unlikely to ever be seen again.

No expense has been spared in making this into the tyre destroying 600ps beast that it is today, featuring a 2.2 stoked SR20DET engine, 260 Tomei cams, 87mm pistons, Trust TD07, 850cc injectors, wet nitrous, HKS dog box, Cusco LSD and a host of other supporting mods listed below.
