Mike Welborn

Mike Welborn purchased the 1993 Nissan 240SX SE after falling into the drifting scene, thanks in part to his brother and his 1991 RX-7. He began modifying the S13 chassis, and has since included a number of aftermarket parts to the overall build. To top it off, Welborn plans on installing a forged Toyota 1.5JZ motor and Brian Crower 272 camshafts.
