newbie to the forum

hey guys, my name is chris, just joined today, my first car when i was 14 was a 68 dodge dart gts- since then i've been die hard mopar man, pre 1971 that is. recently a friend tought me the ropes about drifting in his nissan 200zr. for those that dont know is a jdm 300z, but came factory from nismo w/rb20, full nismo suspension etc.. and i fell for it, weeks later i bought a ae86 for 200$, gutted it welded the diff and went at it. after about 6 months i decided to step up sold the 86 for 500$, i got a 89 240sx coupe for 600$- w/no interior, put a new black interior in it and left it bone stock, the car drifts almost as good as my 86 bone stock. w/ nothing done.

when accelerating the rear end hops real bad, and over bumps sounds like im running over railroad tracks. im guessing some bushings in the rear end, i plan on gettin some adjustable rear arms along with some bushings. what is your guys opinions on these, i know there ebay but they look decent and are affordable.

Welcome to the forum man! Wish I had known about that 86, $500 whoa! These are some very helpful people who can answer any question you have. Everything I have learned from them has paid off. Just dig in, search and ask questions when that doesn't work. I had the same problem with wheelhopery. I put a set of subframe collars and a new endlink/bushing set on my stock rear swaybar and that cut down on it bigtime! Goodluck.
