Michael Russo of 9NINE2 and Reese Marin sit down with us to talk about drifting across Europe and Japan, documenting the trips, and how years of persistence in media and motorsports turned into real opportunities.

Episode 180 is dedicated to one of the most iconic drift platforms ever made: the Nissan 180SX. We sit down with Pat Lynch of Archive 180SX, Cole Mannon, and longtime friend of the shop Johnny Monaco to talk about their obsession with the chassis, how they each discovered 180s, and the styles, stories, and builds that shaped their love for the car. From rare aero finds to deep dives on body kits, fitment, and the culture around the 180SX community, this episode is all about why the 180SX remains the drift car.Check out our Sponsors!AG1:Check out our AG1 affiliate link:⁠https://shop.drinkag1.com/FACTION⁠You will receive a FREE AG1 Flavor Sampler, plus a bottle of Vitamin D3+K2 with your AG1 Welcome Kit, when you first subscribe (a $72 value!).⁠⁨@drinkAG1⁩ ⁠ #ag1partnerEAST COAST DRIFT SCHOOL:@eastcoastdriftschoolCHASE BAYS:@chasebayshttps://www.chasebays.com/COUPON CODE:chasebaysafterhoursLIMITLESS AUTO FAB:@limitless_auto_fabhttps://limitlessautofab.com/RAMSTEAD MFG:https://ramsteadmfg.com/We have a Patreon!
