Yeah it got my hopes up because I still to this day have not been able to find any footage, drift or not, of another stagea on a track.

Aaaaaages ago I remember seeing a vid with a crazy 260RS in it at the drags in JP somewhere, it was crazy, launched and it spun through nearly every gear down the track, but I'll be stuffed if I can find it again :) It was a collection of cars at the same drag strip, and one was this crazy HUGE black landcruiser that sounded like it was a 747, it didn some crzy launches too.

I dunno, I didnt see the time, just kept watching the launch and watching it leap left and right on gear changes :no: oh yeah and it was black.

I've got the silver rs4 in NZ doing the 11sec run, if that is the one you are talking about?

haha youve gotta love the way most of the cars take it kinda slow around the onevia/180 thats spun out, then BAM stagea drifts around it at full lock! it was doing a nicer job than most other cars out there hey...

must be making some serious mumbo - it was still spinning and fishing a far while up the track.

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
