“Bai’s RPS13 is the ultimate evolution of the JDM pro drift car. It’s so right – the perfect amount of flashy looks combined with pure function.”

His car is equipped with a set of custom valved, drift-specific STANCE coilovers, allowing Bai to control this 750hp beast during competition.

“In case you don’t know, Bai is one of the original drift OGs. Like many of the top drifters who have come from the Kansai region of Japan – and there have been plenty – he cut his teeth on the docks of Osaka Bay, alongside his long-time buddy, the late Atsushi Kuroi”

Welcome Naoki-san!

[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]

STANCE Suspension Japan welcomes Team BURST’s Naoki san. One of the best, if not the best drifter in the Kansai region, well known for his crazy door to door tandems and his reverse entries. Looking to upgrade his suspension, he tested STANCE suspension and was very pleased and now is part of Team STANCE Japan. Here is a picture from last weekend. I think he’s already enjoying the new and improved suspension!

We wish you the best of luck this year in D1 Street Legal!

“While LS-swaps may be generally old news in the U.S., they’re certainly still a bit more of a rarity in Japan—Hence why this JDM slash ‘Emurican build attracted so much attention. Not to mention, who could ever get tired of staring at a showroom-ready, fully functional 180SX? Advans and a TRA Kyoto’s Rocket Bunny 6666 Customs kit!? Sex?—Yes, please.”
