Drift Emporium?

Post by jsquared »

So I think everyone has seen their cars at events and knows they got it goin on, but I, for one, have no idea what they do outside of drift events! Are they a shop or a parts dealer or something? I went to their website and only saw external links for products, although it looks like they have accounts with Tomei, SSR, etc so I'd guess they do sales in some form or another.

Are the Drift Emporium cars I see at local places all privateer cars with sponsorships, or are they shop cars? It seems like I see a new one every time there is an event at Turner and every one is killer. Makes me think they are shop cars but I really have no idea.

i think ron (black s14 with rb) and nick (white s14 with sr) and kitt (r34) are the only cars with drift emporium stickers that are not shop cars. from what i've been told they do car maintence to support their drifting program and are dealers for all of their sponsors.

last i heard they have a 3 car team for formula d this year.

yea they've also snatched up several ex pro cars on the cheap. as far as I know the G's, S15, and the new SC430 are shop built.
