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

      Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?

      thanks GTSboy. My confusion at the moment is i am trying to locate the ignition, ECU battery power and the ECU negative The closest thing i can find is the for the S15 on Page 8 of the Wiring Specialties web page https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9F33_M_GgENQnZ6STMxVmVNd1E/view?resourcekey=0-eZ4nNRwRoqa1qvKlWWHm8A I cannot find the same diagram for the R33 RB25DET Series 2 dash plug pin out.... Do you know what the Pins? or know where i can find the same pinout diagram for the RB dash plug? Thanks for the advice on the box... i like a 6 speed so might be on the lookout or the box now.. a topic of discussion for another post...

      Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.

      Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
