They Drift Wicked
hey wats up i have a 1986 NA supra and i agree they are absolute crap to drift..... when its dry :naughty: but believe me as soon as the raindrops start a fallin im out on the road busting out on a wet day i cn pull some of the sickest drifts. so yeah i would say they are a wicked car to drift. oh and on top of that from behind the fat arse of a supr looks pretty awesome on a 45 degree angle (i know cos my mate has a supra 2)

check your tire pressures; when I started driving my mkIII my tires looked a little low, but a guy i know said they were fine, that they would heat up. I left it alone and started having fun when i got used to the car. I had some trouble drifting, but i could do it. when my car was in the shop have some work done on it (front end got knocked off alignment), i had the guy check the pressure: 19.5 psi.
Sooo.....i bumped it up to 32 psi (normal tire pressure) and went and had a blast! I couldn't stop drifting it was so easy. (unfortunately, though, i live in a small town of 15k people, and the best drift spots around are in the middle of the rich and snooty neighborhood, so i go drifting in random spurts and bugger out before the cops are notified. |
drifting
i noticed that when i drift i usulay pull hand brake give more gas. youl notice ur back end will kik to the side, when it does that u jus turn the steering wheel to the side u want to go to. make sure u practise this in a open area. i actualy knw couple of ppl that died from doing this, so be very care full. and rember practise makes perfect.

mkII drifter
i agree u don't necessarily need a FR car to drift but yanking the E-brake in a FF car just doesnt have the same feeling and i think its harder to control too. i've got an '84 MKII (3300lbs.)with 213k on the pretty much stock (home modified exhaust) 2.8 and as long as u kno how to drive u dont need to pull the E-brake to even get it to kick around i go to lincoln tech in indianapolis and there are a bunch of kids with 180sx, 240sx, 280z, and even a couple of 300z s that are badass and then there is my MkII and 2 MKIII supras and the mkIIIs are a lot bigger all around than my mkII the kids with the nissans like to talk shit about toyotas or did until me and one of the mkIII owners went out with the nissans and my old-ass stock 2.8 5spd MKII kicked the shit out of the nissans and this is on dry pavement and 2 of the 240s have had RB25 skyline engine swaps im just saying if u truly kno how to drive u can do amazing things with any car and screw nissans too, long live the supra!
