:D :D :D hi blur! something new about your car? :D
|
drifting is fun but i rarely doo it with my car .It eats up the tires and the tires for my car runs about 300-350$ USDa peice so i try not to do it as much. (about 1200$ for 4 tires!!) Plus i'm still in the learning phase of it and i reallly dont wanna crash my car into something. I'm just gonna buy another car for drifting. My NSX is gonna be for track use. ruinning GTon the track since thats what it was made to do. soo one car for drifting and another for track use

I drift, but mostly I like to do wangan on the highways and touge up in the moutains I think drifting is overated since everyone is getting into it.
|
My Boyfriend does drift sometimes when I'm on a car.
It's a little scary, but it's fun! Maybe when I win a lot money, I buy a car and do drift. haha. |
Drifting?!
O_o!!!! I love Drifting<333333.... Its great!!!<3... |
I really want to get into drifting someday. There's no way I'm gonna learn how to drift in my Z, I need to get a hachi roku or an S13 when I get some extra money.

Nothing new... I think I'll have to move to Japan for learning to drift..... :D
I want a Trueno!!!! |
Here's a great clip from one of the JDM Insider dvd's. I highly recommend the dvd's, they always have awesome footage from drifting to wangan, even kanjo (those dudes are crazier than the drifters and wangan racers combined)
A cute girl that can drift is my dream girlfriend haha |
what if everyone just suddenly started drifting?? x.x'''
(like professionally x.x''''') x] andd ...if anyone can answer this.... is a 1996 honda civic hatchback dx any good for drifting? xDD.... jw >.<'' because that's the car i'm hoping to buy, lol |

basicly physics says RWD>FWD when talking about "drifting" other wise FWD does have its advantages in other race events such as autocross or drag (highly controversal) |
FWD FTL
I don't think I can go back to driving a fwd car. My Tiburon was only putting down about 185 whp, I had a really tough time getting traction on launches, and the torque steer was horrible. A limited-slip diff would have helped, but it would still be weak compared to rwd or awd. Hey typesblur, what year is your Z? I used to have an 84 2+2 auto :rolleyes: Funny how I used to think it was fast when I first got my license lol |
I think that for drifting the best choise is a 4WD... obviously with the transmission changed and adapted for this use.
With RWD is really easy to make the car slide, but if you are not fast and reactive with steering wheel (and when you are too fast) is really hard to exit the curve without going in 360°... with FWD I've never tried... |

mine would run mid 13's on the quarter. now i have another 80's car im setting up for drift. and with some suspension changes should run around 12.8 on the quarter. |
Here's a bad ass vid I found of a touge run with 3 cars.
I know the white car is definately an S14, but what is the black one? I think it's a Nissan Cefiro, but I'm not too sure. Quote:

i would'nt say, that i love the sport , but its kinda a pain in the ass to learn lol,
BUT! once again the same time its like drawing . except it involves the police and and alot of tuning . |

Initial D is such a good and cool movie!!!!!!!
(and it's dubbed in Italian, too :vsign: ) have you ever played with the game of Initial D? |
I just got a doner S13 with a torn tranny and busted rear diff, i don't know if i should try fixing it and trow in a LSD or should I just part it out and trow money in the SW20...
I drifted an AW11 before, the thing just keep going because of the heavy back end.. it was fun :) Too chicken to do it with the SW20... the car is not that well balanced....... |

I use to love drifting so much when I was younger, only a couple of people drifted around where I lived but when that movie came out about it people started doing it too. Its all fun if they want to race cool but when there assholes about it then its just annoying and no fun at all. I remember this mountain near by use to be so perfect for racing and drifting cause it was an abandoned road so you could go all out and not worry about hitting someone but now there are too many people on that mountain.
|
Unfortunately I know what you mean... for neofites it's just a fashion, something that is cool...but they are not passionate, they are not lovers... and so they waste the magic atmosphere that is all around this sport. That's a pity...
@Blur: Wow, I want to see your work!!! :D Your car will fly with this new engine!!!! Put on the pics, put on the pics!!!!!! :cool: |
