There are different Types of drift, Power Oversteer, Scandinavian flick, Hand Brake drift and just Loss of Control...

The Type of drift is up to the driver... But Proffessional drifting is being sideways before you take the corner...

Extra points for arm out window...

If your looking out the drivers side or passenger side window to see where the f**k your going for more than a couple of seconds without spinning or overcorrecting... your drifting  

sideways is sideways it just comes down to how long you can hold it like that... (directly proportional to the size of your balls)

Yep!

As soon as the car is sliding, it's "drifting". To what degree depends on how much skill you have and the perfomance of the car.

if you really REALLY want to know and want to buy a kick ass DVD you should get the Speacial edition Best Motoring Drift Bible it is bad ass. Keiichi Tsuchiya is teaching you how to properly drift.
That is the Vid to watch guys.

I mean I think Tsuchiya should know what he is talking about. They call him the "Drift King" because he practically invented it!!

Seriously, this DVD will open your eyes. You will come away after watching it with a whole new understanding. I sure did.

90% of what you think you know about Drift is just plain WRONG.

Invest the $39.00 and get wised up.

PowerSlide = POWER, powerslide is all about power. ohh yeah and if u get sidewayz after entering the concer its a powerslide

Drift = nothing to do with power, all about skill and technique. If you watch drift bible you should be able to get a good idea on how to drift, Most drift requirer the car to be sideway before entering the concer for example when using the handbrake, u pull it before entering the concer and rls it just as u start to turn into the concer

HandBrake and Brake Drift, should be the easies drift to pull off when u start drifting; and basicly explain drifting as the car is already sidewayz (or movin from being straight to sideway) before u enter the concer.

Justin, it's a sad sight back home...but we must forgive them they have never been properly taught in the art of freestyle driving :D

This is drifting...click or click and save...enjoy!

Please tell me this is just an inexperienced "Drifter" getting all excited about losing traction for the first time!

Please DON`T tell me that Danny from "Japanese Motorsport" is the only guy in Australia that can drift!!!!

If you want to click on over to http://www.driftzone.com you can get plenty of footage of Australia's current national drift champion (Darren Appleton, not Danny from JMS) as well as many other excellent Australian drifters in action.

You'll find plenty of drifting, and you might mistake it for powersliding. Of course the difference is usually in your head.

Its a sad shame when some people are so quick to label all Aussies as wanna-be's just because they're not Japanese.

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
