well first off I've owned both, and I e-braked my FF all the time, around corners, into my driveway, around light posts(slalom style), around speed bumps(slalom style), jacker around in parking lots, the best time was when my friend, who has a 96 eclipse turbo, and me went threw our neighborhood e-braking around every corner, as in like turn left off one block and go down to the next block going sideways... it was so easy, I never wrecked, came close to wrecking, just had bad tires. and in my rx7 it is so much freakin harder, you have to acctually use a technique in a RWD, but in a FF you just pull the e-brake and kinda go down, up, down, up, same with the gas...
plus with a FF you aren't ever out of control, you don't spin out or anything, and if your horrible enough to mess up(not sure how you'd do that) just straighten the wheel, drop the e-brake and ease into the gas and your in total control, not that you were ever really out of control...
in RWD you can get your back end too far around and spin out, you have to use different techniques, not just turn the wheel and pull the e-brake like on a FF. and on RWD your tires actually spin the whole time and you have to know what your doing.
my cousin is THE WORST DRIVER EVER, a lot of people say girls can't drive, well he drives like hes a 5 year old girl, its terrible, he know nothing about cars or drifting and he can e-brake like crazy, slalom around stuff and everything...
now, this is right from
www.d1g.com and I think they'd know what it is...

What is drifting?
Drifting is a high-skill level motorsport in which drivers control a car while it slides from side to side at high speed through a marked course. It is similar to rally racing, but is done on a closed, paved course and judged on execution and style rather than just who finishes the fastest. Drift cars are typically smaller, lightweight, and rear-wheel-drive. The goal is to apply enough power to the rear wheels to break the tires' traction and initiate a slide, or "drift." Once a drift is initiated, it must be maintained through the turn using a precise balance of power, braking and steering.
To the uninitiated it's a wild display of controlled chaos. But when professionally executed, a drifting vehicle is a thing of beauty and grace not unlike figure skating (albeit much faster and louder).

notice they say RWD cars that must apply enough power to break the tires traction... so if the tires aint spinnin you aint driftin... that the fact of it, if you FF people want to start a new style you could call it power sliding, but thats about as close as you'll ever get.
