i dont see how an mk3 is a drift car. just my opinion.

Get a 240... The MKIII is a crap car for drifting.... even if you get good with it you could always be even better with something else.

^^^^^ agreed. mk3's seem a bit heavy. depends on what you got already though.. what he wants is doable if he wants to dump the money in. hed just see a better outcome from a 240 and itd be easier to drive in a drift scenario.

you know i dont get why everyone talks about mk3 supras sucking for drifting ... i Daily drift mine and ive had no problems ... i mean sure a 240sx is easier to drift but why not be unique and drift something very few people can ... mk3 works for drifting just keep control and dont over gas it because of the heavy rear end will want to keep its momentum and swing out

...and im currently building a 7m-ge from the block up and alls im shooting for is 300-320 hp since you really dont need much more than 250hp to break traction easily ( i mean i can already break traction no matter if the pavement is dry or wet with my lightly modded 7m-ge)

also side note my 1993 integra ls was able to break traction whenever and keep spinning all the way through 2nd and that only had 130ish hp just goes to show you dont need 400 hp

Is drifting the only thing you do with your Supras? Why can't you destroy American Brand cars doing your "sport" Other than on the track what are you going to do with tons of horsepower, like the new Corvette that does over 200. You can not drive 200 on any public road for long. Then what if you wreck at 200?

So the only reason you have for your cars is the adolescent thrill? This whole thing sounds childish and do not understand your thinking at all. What about a drive on a nice Sunday, driving for fun without being a hazard to the general public?
