This is the only form of drifting I've perfected.

Its where you "Hit the gutter and Rip a wheel off":D

Rear wheels - a good place for beginners to start

Front left - more advanced

Front right - maximum street cred!!

Bonus points for ripping a wheel off and still completing the next corner!

lmao @ MIKGTR. thas funny shit man, i see where your coming from, it's easy to do....

most people seem to power slide from mid corner on... this is a good place to start, as you get better and better, you can do it earlier in the corner, then finally, as they do in Japan, and as Denzo does, do it well before the corner, then carry it into even the next corner....

all takes practice

LOL another one of my favorites:D especially if you manage to bruise both thumbs somewhere during all the over corrections!!

Guest drift_me_silly

fark you guys must be experts

i've only ever tried in a gem and a vl, both raining, both locked diffs, both times got chocolate cake all down my pants...

what i find the very hardest in drift is keeping a straight line, while going diagonally forwards, sideways...fark, i just can't get it, but once i held the gem just like....this.........fark!.........all the way through a set of lights...kinda...

the vl was a shyteload of fun around two-lane roundabouts...hold the steering, control speed and direction with the throttle...never been in a car that flexed so much, though. disconcerting, that.

I have a video on my computer of that Kazuhiro Tanaka maniac...dead set LUNATIC, and he's drifting into corners, all the way thru until halfway down the next straight.... drives that red s15... but they seem to pump the clutch on corners and wheely it up.....i figure thats how they keep it sideways......

OH, and the comentators literally blow their load everytime they say TANAKA (OHH TANAKA OH MY GOD..only in japanese), quite maniacle.....but kool

i practise FWD drifting with the handbrake on the local roundabouts in the rain....rather funny.....no torque drifting is quite... slippeery

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
