u wanna get a car to do some drifting?? get a ae86 hatch

perfect for drifting...(yet harder to drift than s13)

you will gain ALOT of skill with the ae86

thankx, i heard of the 86 corollas capabilites, maybe if i find one at a good price. ill look into it. im a fan of toyota, but i wanted to get my feet wet with nissan, if you know what i mean.

maybe look into the s12 200sx. they are either v6 (gay, dont get it too heavy), turbo 4 (weak), or n/a 4 (even weaker). but they might be a good beginner drift car. i dont know too much about them tho....

in the us i think we only got non turbo 4 and it was front wheel drive so dont bother

stealthj · 12-08-2003, 04:02 PM

no we actually got the v6

was it front wheel drive?? if so, then sucks!

TheLogikal1 · 12-08-2003, 04:17 PM

nope, im pretty sure spitz was right and it was rwd

Lets see some specs on the supra.

the car doesn't matter.

it's the driver.

and don't just expect to jump into drifting and be good right away. it will take YEARS.

i have a 94' supra TT six speed veilside kit, erubani raceing hood(carbon fiber), SSR 18"s wrapped in khumos, HKS coilovers, TRD strut tower bar, greedy aluninum pedals, tom's shift knob and a short shift kit and a personal racing steering wheel (thats pretty much it for dress up and suspension) as for performance i have BlitZ blow off valve, Blitz intercooler, HKS intake, Blitz boost gauge ( in 3 pod gauge with oil and temp.),Blitz boost control, HKS cat back exhaust and downpipe. thats prettty much my car. its all white with a black targa top. i busted up my FLUG hood when the latch broke so im puting on the carbon one. it also has a veilside wing, but its very ugly, i might get a rod millen carbon fiber, but im not sure yet on which wing i want to get to replace the ugly one.

ive drifted some with my supra, im getting okay at it, i just wanted to see some opinions on some LIGHTER cars that drift well. and im starting to like Nissans (silvias+skylines).ive been driving (racing) cars for 4 years now. im starting automotive school next month, and im selling cars right now for money, i might open a web site for my business, i plan to customize cars. i do body work (starting to) and i install custom audio systems ( pretty basic stuff right now, plan to learn fiberglass work.) I also have a 95 3000GT base ( got it for 2,000-hell of a deal)

tell me the last time you saw a boost guage add power...... what you listed here wouldn't make it "brutally fast" at all. Lets see some pics of this brutally fast supra.
