you can learn how to drive first before you start drifting

 

No.....drifting is Sick! Hard Parking is Gay!

 

^^^lol i think drifting is pretty cool. i just dont tell anybody i like it, i say autocross or something. if i say i like it theyll be all like "Do you drift your car? Is it fun? do you have sr20? im just kinda like lol.

but back on topic if you wanna drift and stuff just fix whats wrong with your car first then start practicing. just cuz you might own a 240 doesnt mean you have to drift. ive had my 240 for liek a year and dont drift even tho i like it. too risky for the roads, leave it for the track.

 

Sorry guys but I bought a 240 just to drift, I didnt just own a 240 and then found out about drifting. What else chassis that has super wieght distrabution and is hella cheap besides a 240sx????

 

what exactly is your "budget"?? like everyone else said drifting is expensive, it is very abusive on the engine, tranny, brakes, and suspension components...

how old are you?

also if you dont have tools and your gona have a shop do your work, dont even bother drifting..

 

thanks everyone, I got a little more clearer picture,

does anyone know if 91-93 mustag V8 would be suitable for drifting, it has lsd and enough of torque!? or it might be to tricky for begginer

 

go for the mustang. 1st reason... it saves cars for us. 2nd reason... it saves cars for us. and when ur new at a forum, u probably dont want to start ish with people that have high post counts. they might actually know more than u. just a thought.

 

theres that one jzx90 markII in D1 street legal thats auto, and he does fine...pretty decent lines and everything...as for drifting with the mustang...yea sure why not. however if you were to go on...say...club 4ag and show or ask things about your car...nobody will really take you seriously, if you go on a mustang forum and talk about drifting your mustang, people will probably try to kill you. and rape your sister.

 

my buddy drifts his 88 notchback just fine. do it. do it.

 

I don't down anyones attemp at anything, but you are getting urself into a costly hobby.

in my 3 going on 4 years of ownership this is my list of destuction:

-3 motor
-3 trannies
-2 differentials
-3 Radiators
-i dont know how many hit curbs
-1 K wall
-lots of syn motor/gear oils 50-60 dollars every 2000 miles ( motor ) and right after practice session
-LOTS OF GAS ( infinity sign)
-Entry Fees ( average of 150 just for practice)
-30 plus sets of tires ( used )
-Upset girl also lol.

and with all that still have not entered an "official" competition yet due to money and travel expenses

and it was also befor me joining the Air force. most of that stuff was done with college refunded checks. It sucks when you break something and have to wait weeks to fix it.

just an thought man, but don't let anyone stop you dude

Carry on.

 

yea because people who post comment on the net all day know everything....

 

they certainly know more than a newb that doesnt even own the car yet. jeez. use ur brain before u post. read back and look at the person he was sayin ish to. tell me that person with the high post count knows nothing. just stop. its one of the most knowledgable people on this forum.

 

i actually did not intent to ish anybody,and i agree that it wasn;t the right way to get into the forum, but welcoming remark of the most knowledgable very much dissapointed me, sorry but i get sensitive sometimes, ispetially when i am new to environmnet

 

You shouldnt be sorry going240, these guys can be buttheads sometimes

 

Yeah, we are *******s for the most part...
