^^^ perfect for you

Re: old drifters?
 

man, I wanted an el-camino for the longest time in high school. My neighbor had a super-sport that just sat in his barn. Had 4 flat tires, a pretty trashed interior, but a real sexy 396 (if I remeber right, its been about 5 years...)sittin under the hood. The body on that bitch was flawless.


onto the real subject, datsun 510 and put a rotary in it. 8)

Might work in reverse

Re: old drifters?
 

buk, i saw one of those today and wondered wtf it was. now i know. :l

Re: old drifters?
 

LOL owned 8)

Re: old drifters?
 

not realy, its rear wheel drive. but its not good for "driftz0ring" seeing as how it doesnt have the torque to break the tires loose and keep em loose unless you want to over rev the hell out of it. we have local homo drift compitions. and the people in old irocs and ---- have the most control of the cars.

Re: old drifters?
 

those GTS arent rear wheel drive :P

only the older ones are

Re: old drifters?
 

oops :1 i admit my wrong, sorry.

that corolla has allot of hte same parts my celica does in it. like the gate maf and some other things. thats nice to know.

Re: old drifters?
 

back when i was in the market for a car i looked at the some GTS. all those were cheap and all the RWD ones were hella expensive :p

Re: old drifters?
 

johnny grow up :P


i guess you like talking out of your ass. why dont you ------- name some old drifters fucker?

corolla gt's and gt-s rock @ drifting

www.corollaclub.org/movies/5gts.wmv
http://www.corollaclub.org/movies/5drift.avi

stock. or modded. or swapped. there an all arround great car for drifting.

sinister. whats wrong with the way they look? :-\

Re: old drifters?
 

most old toyotas are way to expensive. i only have one because i got it mint off some guy for 200 bucks with 53k miles on it. probebly put about 2 grand in it to keep it running though :-\

Re: old drifters?
 

Nothing at all, I love their looks, I just turned around and was like WTF was that thing, it sounded nice too :6

and the reason he's saying the GT-S's suck at drifting is the one you pictured is FWD.. FWD aint exactly ideal for drifting :1


edit:

First and only car i've drifted in. That was pretty much accidental too. Damn throttle happy 16 year olds :6 :y

Re: old drifters?
 

it all depends on the drivers style :1

in japan both the gt's and gt-s's are used.

i had a video of a dude drifitng in a gt, then getting out. and into the gts and pulls off the same exact ----.

Re: old drifters?
 

no no, what hes saying is that.. thats a 4th gen front wheel drive model. and the others that you are refering to are 3rd gen rear wheel drive. wich i dont see why people just dont use the older celica gts rear wheel drive cars or the old celica supras.

AE86 = rear wheel drive

Re: old drifters?
 

you can still drift a front wheel drive corolla.

Re: old drifters?
 

god your a moron

ae92 = fwd

ae86 = rwd

old skool tightness

gotta <3 externally mounted oil coolers

Re: old drifters?
 

give up

Re: old drifters?
 

The reason why the AE86 is the platform everyone wants is there was something funky with the suspension design setup and it made breaking the rear end out with control really easy. Its why they only have 100hp or so because thats all you need to have fun in them.

And by drift you mean pull the ebrake right?

Re: old drifters?
 

so just because it takes alot more skill to drift a fwd. and theres alot more room for error. it means u cant do it?

and no. you dont have to use handbrake excessively to drift. people in japan have been drifting front wheel drives since they invented drifting.
it takes alot more technique and skill. but once u master it. fwd drifting is alot better than rear wheel drive drifting.

Re: old drifters?
 

Japs didnt create drifting, they stole the "sport" from a bunch of hillbilly's flying around turns for fun :y

Re: old drifters?
 

heres an interview for u fags that say u cant drift a fwd.

:1

Re: old drifters?
 

Thats ass dragging, its not drifting. My Mustang doesn't need a running start for it to get sideways. :-\

Re: old drifters?
 

ass dragging or not. if a dude in a fwd drive car can own a guy in a rwd car then more power to them.

its possible. and im looking for that video right now. ill host it and post it as soon as i find it. the guy barely even uses handbrake. he just taps it to start off the turn.. and then after that it takes alot of skill to keep it from wiping out.

dude. post some pictures or videos of your mustang even if it is stock. do you have flowmasters? all i saw was the one picture u posted. did i miss any others u posted?

thanks.

Re: old drifters?
 

heres some videos of the dude in the interview before he signed on with falken tires

Re: old drifters?
 

:o

i took too long finding that link

Re: old drifters?
 

ae92 = 6th gen.

im talking about 5th gen gt's and gt-s's
they didnt even off rwd in 6th gens.
so why are u comparing 5th and 6th gens?
???
who's the moron now?

There's some pics of my car. I'll post a pretty funny video next week that has some pics of my car. Right now the video is on VHS so when its burned to DVD I'll post it. I have a little teaser (becuase its all I could fit on my digital camera :-\ ) but I can't seem to get it to upload, I dunno if its even worth watching yet though. The story behind it is ------- awesome but I want to wait to have the whole video before I post it.

^^^ sweet ride.

personally, Id rock the ---- outa a Ranchero....

Re: old drifters?
 

HONDA TUNING: Can you explain your e-brake technique?
KEISUKE HATAKEYAMA: The first thing is not to tune your e-brake so that it’s too sensitive. Some guys think they have to have the brakes ultratight to drift in FF cars but that's not true. You need to have a lot of slack until the e-brake fully kicks in at the very top. You need that partial braking zone so you can ride it. As for practice methods, start by practicing your turns using the e-brakes. When you start drifting, make sure you don't stop the rear tires with the side brakes. Just use the brakes to turn the direction of the car, not to stop the rear tires. That's just sliding your car with momentum.

Sure sounds like ebrake pulling to me.....

Re: old drifters?
 

Here's the video, its not really that great, but the story behind why we're doing it is pretty cool. we literally did over $50,000 worth of damage in one day 8)

Re: old drifters?
 

haha so whitey tell us the story O0

Re: old drifters?
 

Well what we're doing still isn't over yet, there's more carnage next Saturday so we're getting it all on tape than I'll post it up along with the story. The only shitty thing is that the steel belts started hitting my car and all the rubber is going ot be impossible to clean off :-\

Re: old drifters?
 

dude, steel belts as in steel belts off ur tires? lol. ur wearing em down with burn outs?
i dont get it ??? that video wasnt even a teaser. it was more like a snipet :1
damn it, im too tired to think. so im stomped >:(

best way to get that rubber off is with the 3m scuff pad. dry at first.. lightly to get the big stuff. then wet it and push a little harder.
then just glaze her when ur done, a good wax. and she's back in service
