S13 turbo

good diff

stiff suspension

drivers seat, steering wheel, gear stick, dash, good front tyres.

Basically, after that it's practice and money.

Can't remember who it is that is up there in the AUS drift scene who has an S13 or is it a onevia (s13 and 180 front end) who has about 220rwkw and is one of the most competitive cars on the scene..

a stock S15 turbo'd SR20 with tuning and fuel mods etc will make about 200rwkw.

a stock S13 is about 1100kg.

remove anything not required and close to 1000kg.

Get a commodore

any model will do... vs, vy, vt

find a corner...

go around it fast and stab throttle...

this is cheap and will have you drifting in no time.....

or the other suggestions sound ok i guess

Aren't most commodores single spinners?

So you get this drift and sometimes it will almost seem to snap back on you when the other wheel decides to spin instead?

Stick with the Silvia's, the NissanSilvia forum's are into drift ...

yeah right....all that will do will cause the car to fishtail, hit the gutter and flip onto its roof or wrap around a telegraph pole....Or if its a single spinner...lay one big black line down...I wouldnt try to drift a commodore unless I had some major suspension work..Stock they are awful

now heres THE cheapest way to drift.. Take any front wheel drive car, place 2 McDonalds food trays under the rear wheels and pull the handbrake on...Then take off !!! - Hint the trays usually last longer if its wet weather

i say with starting off.. build yourself a pretty decent r31 manual rb30.. I currently have one now, just standard with a tune to run slightly better (advance timing, richened up) without a locker in the wet i get it on pretty stupid angles.. Way more fun to throw around than my 300kw r33 that i purposly built for drift.. (Because it doesnt pick up speed to over 130km/h in 3rd gear when sideways :P )

So get yourself a R31

r32 rear coilovers

s13 front coilovers

swaybars

strut bars

strip the shit out of the interior

adjustable front arms and rods

s13 brakes

Alloy rad

4.11 diff gears

minispool with 28 spline axles

exedy heavy duty clutch

bodge your own exhaust

get it running nice.. always service it..

If you want extra beef.. add a high lift n/a cam

and you have yourself a drift car :D and trust me.. u can throw them around something kronik

You must be doing it wrong then....

Make sure you have ACDC cranking, your wearing correct attire (wife beater, footy shorts and thongs) and your hand out the window holding a stubby cooler with a can of VB in it...

THEN youll be able to drift a commodore

Stick your mates in the back, some cases of beer in the boot and youll be the next DRIFT KING

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
