Any Ford Mustangs, especially the most recent generation are great fun and can be equipped from the factory with killer brakes and suspension. Fox-body Mustangs would benefit from a hydraulic clutch. Pontiac Solstices came with factory performance pieces and the engine is tunable. GXP version came boosted, but there were track-ready specials. Typical drift cars like S13 and AE86 have great aftermarket support but finding clean examples are getting harder to find. Insurance may be a downside too.
Big, RWD sedans like Nissan Cima/Infiniti Q45, Toyota Celsior/Lexus LS400, Toyota Altezza/Lexus IS-series, etc, among others can be converted to drift cars. Look into their engine and chassis families for performance parts compatibility. BMWs have a huge aftermarket following. Mercedes-Benz has great cars, though many are automatics. Still, they're bulletproof. Some people have even converted old-school Jaguars for drifting, but even with V-12 power, they're still custom jobs.
Australian Fords and Holdens, RWD and with torquey V8s ranging from mild to wild, whether it's a sedan, coupe, station wagon or ute. The Holden/Vauxhall Monaro/ Pontiac GTO gets special mention since Top Gear featured them with D1GP drifters, which loved the cars. GTOs may never be cheaper in the states. Remember, many teams are converting to V8 power for torque and easier maintenance. Hyundai Genesis Coupe comes from the factory either with a tuner-friendly turbo 4 or V6.
Rotary power, while high on revs, gives great power-weight ratio. FDs are a challenge to find clean. 3-rotor engines are obtainable and swappable. Good luck with 4-rotors! RWD. Classics like Toyota Cressidas/Mark II/Chaser/Cresta, Soarer, and Skylines, Stagea, Cedric, Leopard, Cefiro of different years are great swap candidates, but older gens are getting harder to find. Depending on model year, some came turbocharged. Zs of all years have huge following, but early models need stiffening.
Drifting started out like this if you don't like it then stop drifting buy a Honda and hit v-tec like a bitch!!!! This is an amazing video keep up the good work :-)
@MrJakedott It started out there but it shouldn't stay, Im not a ricer you faggot, I just have more than an ounce of brain power unlike you obviously. Its dickheads like you who raise insurance for new drivers to $4000 a year on a POS car, and practically $15000 a year on a good car. If you want to keep street racing, soon enough natural selection will catch up to you... I would also never buy a honda, unless it was an nsx.
@feAr636 where do you live? my insurance is only $105 a month and i drive a 89 240sx. it might be because you live in a big city. not trying to argue at all just wondering.
@JDMdrifterboy7 Yes I do live in a built up large city, and I am a great driver while still being careful on the road. I have no accidents, and no tickets yet am still being charged out the nuts by insurance just because Im a teen aged male driver. You can probably see where my anger comes from lol
@feAr636 have you ever looked at other insurance agencies? and also ask your agent about a video you can watch to get a discount. its really lame but i did it when i was seventeen and it took off $30 a month on my bill. there are a lot of options where i live. but i don't know about your city. anyways nice to find some one on here who isn't a total prick. lol. peace dude.
Well, Im guessing this isnt a closed course because of that pedestrian vehicle @ 3:34... All I have to say is fuck people like this who race/drift/drive like retards on public roads. Its people like you who make insurance so fucking high for young males. I love going fast and sideways just as much as you do, but go to a god damn track.
@feAr636 lol go pay your insurance, hack cars serving their purpose. nothing else, i seriously doubt that these guys out in the mountains make your insurance higher, i doubt their crashes even make news. but... i dont doubt that your a fag
sick video. weve started doing touge racing here in california a fair amount where i live, not so many downhill drifters but a lot of guys run 240s and s14s but have them tuned more for grip than drift since it gets them down the hill in the races a bit quicker. im condsidering getting a drift car soon but my touge civic comes first unfortunatly. i might buy a second hand 240 tho to start learning so techniques
awesome videos on we love to do man. Looks like a blast out there. Me and a buddy are gonna try come out this spring to see some of these places we can only dream of first hand.
mountains are where it all started, so i guess you could say they want to carry on that tradition so to speak. sure as hell aren't tossers though, have a lot more balls drifting on a mountain than on a track in my opinion.
Hmmm it MAY be the LSD...or more the lack of one....it's quite common to weld the Differential wich results in a 100% LSD....this is a very cheap modification and one of the obvious downsides is the permanent lock of the rear axle, so when doing narrow turns, park etc. you tires will screech, hop, rub and so on!
