drift car
what do you think is the ideal car for drifting???
|
Supra.240SX,180sx,silvia,skyline,AE86,RX-7,RX-8,corvette,impalaSS(prefer 96),pretty much almost any rear wheel drive car, just watch a few drift videos and shows and look at the cars they use.
|
anything rwd can drift. it's all in the setup, and mostly driver.
|
for refence the 180SX and 240SX are the SAME EXACT CAR. Anyway when I had a 240SX (89 with SR20DET drop) I found it t be one of the best cars ever for drifting. i drift in my supra (only a few times i try to keep my supra in tip top shape.) but it seems a little mroe difficult maybe becuase of the extra poundage.

nissan s15 sylvia
the best drift car ever |

thats my opinion too all those crazy japs use those sylvias over there 240sx is close behind |
uh, it's Silvia.
and Silvia = 240sx |
true,
the silvia is japans market version of the 240sx but they're still different cars. |
silvia looks better then 240 i love the style of it.
|
AE86 and mazda miata for the acutal handling but they are both under powered. the 90 body style 240sx with a SR swap is probably the best for the money and makes enough power to continue to stay competitive once you get better. I would try to avoid the S15 model because their transmissions are weaker. the trans is the same size as the one that i have but they shoved a 6th gear into it.
|
do a tranny swap thats all u gotta do

thats like saying the supra = celica it came from the celica but its two diffrent cars now |
the silvia is different from the 240 it may be based on it but it looks better and etc.
|
same car.
S13 240sx = RPS13 180sx S14 240sx = S14 Silvia The only difference is the driveline. They're the same car. Same chassis codes. |
no bud
just cuz the cars have the same chassis doesnt mean its the same car if you have a 240sx and you tell people you have a silvia theyre gonna look at you like your an idiot. i dont care what you say at this point but theyre different cars in my book. |
Man are you serious? Maybe if you tried to do some research you would find out for yourself. In the US they are called the 240 SX. All the way from 89-98. In Japan they are known as Silvias...with different versions and diferent motors, respectively. Check it...
89-98 in US is 240sx because of the motor (KA24de). i'm pretty sure that the 89-90 came w/ the SOHC engine (pignose). In Japan, the 89-94 had many models. -RPS13 (Hatchback with both Redtop and Blacktop SR20DET turbo's) -180SX Type X ( Hatchback w/ 1.8 Liter motor, ca18DET turbo) -PS13 Has different headlights than US coupes ( coupe version some came with SR20DET also) which also have Zenki and Kouki Versions - Sil80. Has a PS13 front end with a Hatchback rear end. The non-turbo models came with SR20DE's. Same motor found in newer SE-R's. Then you also have the 95-98 models aka S14 which came w/ blacktop SR20DET's. Also have the Zenkis and Kouki. Then you have the 99-01 which are known as the S15. Blacktop motors and slighter upgrades than the previous model. They all share the same chasis. That is why people can do different front end conversions and what not. |

Hi guys~
here is a clip of a MKIV drifting that we recorded a while back. This owner is my personal friend and I am responsible for building this car and providing all the necessary information when my customer needs. I hope you all enjoy it. Supra rocks~ http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...40137568313748 |
well heres a mkIII in south africa drifting , all that was changed on this car is the D2 shocks and stearing angle was inproved. check out this clip and rate it if you like :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3A3N-6tPVmY

Could those of you that know start a how to, thread.
For those of us that are interested in drifting and are interested in learning how? Or just for those whom are curious or have questions? I have some and I don't want to scrap my noise figuring out "how to". |
i think the best one of all is the silvia's but the one i would love to see drift would be an 89' Mazda Rx7 Savanna. Those thinks are sick! My mkiii will do good as well.:dance:
|
RX-7 (Gen 3) Was born to drift and RX-7s brother is the Supra.
|
The 240sx(USDM), or Silvia(JDM) or S-Chassis (both have same chassis - hence the name S13, S14, S15) are the best drift cars. That's why most drift cars you see are S-Chassis. That's why they're the most popular car among tuners and enthusiasts in Japan.
|
The 180 and 240 are the same except that the 180 is always going to be RHD because they were JDM only, and the powerplant for the 180 was an SR20 instead of the KA24. The silvia also shares the same S13 chassi but it is a coupe unlike the 180 and 240. the only difference for the JDM models is the body styling the underlaying platform is the same. The reason why they are so poplular in japan is that they are very cheap and there are hundreds of them laying in junk yards to get parts off of because the SR is not a motor that will last long without good care taken on maintanace.
|
actually the 180sx had the ca18det 1.8l turbo 4cyl, still a better motor than the ka24e tho.
|
|
in my opion, anything back wheel drive is a good drifter, but Rx7, S13/14/15, 350z, 370z, Supra, Soarer, and AE86 are pretty good at it.
|
its true, anything RWD can drift with the proper suspension and driver skill. the best for money reasons and for beginers are s-chassis nissans or AE86's. you can drift mk3's but they have a worse suspesion design in comparison to s-chassis.
ok let me clairify everyones fail of trying to explain s-chassis S13's: 89-90 USDM 240sx had a KA24e, a single cam 2.4l 91-94 udsm 240sx had a KA24DE, a dual cam 2.4l 89-94 JDM silvia's had a SR20de-t(coupe style body)(205hp) 89-90 JDM 180sx had a CA18de-t(hatch style body) 91-98 jdm 180sx had a SR20de-t S14's: 95-98 USDM 240sx had a KA24DE(dual cam) 95-98 JDM silvia had a newer version of the SR20de-t(had 215hp) S15's: only sold in japan came with the best version of the SR20de-t(250hp) there were HICAS editon s13's which came with a VLSD and all-wheels streering. any questions?.... :dunno: |

sr20det stock 6-8psi roughly 200hp ka24de stock with turbo 6-8psi roughly 270-280 WHP building one right now going full forged with a 50trim should make about 500 whp and hes still gonna have less than the cost of an sr swap into his car even paying labor :bouncy: |
