So you want to drift? Here are 8 cars that are desireable.
[IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/T-MAC/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot.jpg[/IMG][IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/T-MAC/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-1.jpg[/IMG][IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/T-MAC/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-2.jpg[/IMG]
1.Nissan s15 (240sx or 200sx)
Engine -SR20DET
Pros - Strong engine, JDM engine swapps availble, Most advanced 240 or 200 available, much aftermarket support for body and engine, reliable, sport car feel.
cons- Hard to find after drift craze, much interrior wear and tear, over used, costly,
don't repop interrior pieces(dashes,door panels,etc).

2.Nissan s14 (200 or 240 sx)
engine -
KA24DET

Pros -Decent engine power,reliable, much aftermarked support, sportcar feel.
Cons - hard to find, not as power ful as SR20DET, costly,
don't repop interrior pieces,much interrior wear.

4.Nissan s13
engine -CA18DET

Pros - lighter than s14-15, great project car,basicly built for drift
Cons -Hard to find,much interrior wear,

5. 86 Corrola GT-S
Engine-
4A-GZE (i think)

Pros-Bullit proof, easy to find parts, great price, easy lexus v8 conversion.
Cons -regular engine is weak,not so easy to find car, lexus v8 has no or little aftermarket support.

6.Honda s2000
engine- KA20

Pros- Great looking car, cheap parts, carbon fibre evry thing, powerful as hell, lighter than lindsay lohan.

Re: So U Wanna Drift?

he forgot RX-8, GTO, Solstice/redline, FC.

And no the FD motor is not bullet proof. They are self destructive motors that unless the reliability mods are done they wont last you very long.

Re: So U Wanna Drift?

theres already a list of cars on this site. Not to mention there are cars that should be on the top 10 that u forgot like the Mustang and Camaro i realize drifting started in japan but theres no rule that says u need a rice burner to drift. Thats the best part about drifting its more about the driver than the car. I think i would kill to see someone drift a custom 32 ford hotrod at d1 though lol.

or get a classic benz and seriously mod it as you would do with any drift car get a modest 200-300 hp/tq that would be the crap

Re: So U Wanna Drift?

oo man especially one of the old diesel benzes lol. imagine that shit sideways with white tire smoke and about twice as much black smoke rollin out sidepipes lol god that would be kick ass actually no one would ever be able to foloow u close or they wouldnt be able to see lol. Is there a rule or soemthing that says u cant drift trucks? i mean i had a old ford 4x4 with a lift and 35s and that 460 would put that truck sideways with barely any effort..... all the lil hondas would be shaking if that thing was chasing em down

Re: So U Wanna Drift?

tip? i take it u havent drivin many trucks. my last pickup had a 6 inch lift and 35 inch tall tires with a 5 speed transmission. it was built for mudd but you could hang it out sideways all day long and it would pull right of it. the only problem was new tires were $200 a piece and that got old after the second set.
