Hey i was wondering if you guys could give a couple tips on faint drifts. Recently I got my alignment done and the camber was reduced from -3 to -1.25 in the front. Now when I go to do my faints I loose front traction. any suggestions. I got an s13 fastback. Maybe I should just get camber plates and change the settings when I want to drift.
Any suggestions???

 

you need to stiffen the rear and keep the throttle.. kicking ht eclutch wouldl help also

 

step on the gas.. on on on
just as you let off the weight transfers
to the front and turn in one direction
then Stomp on the gas and yank the
wheel back the other direction. ..

this all happens extremly fast and with a fluid motion

 

Yeah its when I yank the wheel back that I loose front traction. But also I step on the brakes alittle after letting off the gas, so maybe Im shifting to much weight to the front?

Thanks for the help guys.

 

dont hit your brakes unless you are trailbraking to contol or correct the slide

 

i also herd that the S13 has a bunch-o understeer ??

 

They do but that is solved super quick with some tires and entry speed.

 

Went out drifting last night and Problem solved. Between not hitting the brakes, and the new steering spacer I put in I got my feints alot better. Thanks Guys

Did a bad*** drift around parking lot island, wish I had a camera.

 

thats what i like to hear... s13 understeer..wierd thing i noticed alot of ppl are starting to take away the 2-3 degrees of neg camber in the front.. i dont know .. i dont plan on gettin rid of mine.. it's pretty unprofessional but as far as i'm concerned i'm just tryin to look kool and i'm so damn rough with the car it's gonna get sideways anyways so why not look koo wit lots of camber haha..i need tires
