Hi Guys ...

I need some opinions ... i want to get into some drifting and i was wondering can you use a GTR for drifting ...? Can you just make it 2 wheel drive easily and drift it .? or should i buy a pure rear wheel drive car .?

Thanks for the advice in advance .. I have a few cars in mind ...

BTW - if anyone has a good drifter for sale PM me ..

We have two or three GTR 32s drift at Archerfield but if you are just starting up it is probably best to get something a bit more basic but it is completely up to you. We have a 180sx for sale at the moment and it is a perfect drift car. Jump onto www.option1garage.com.au to have a look and for more details

As the other guys said mate...you could...it is possible..but i think if your just starting out, get a pig like a KE70, S13, or gtst if you've got your heart set on a GTR. It would be MUCH cheaper and you could spend more on worth while mods such as suspension, 2 way diff etc..

but in the end its your call

EDIT: I see in your info it says you own a sprinter? AE86? Use that.

i find it amusing how people suggest it would be cheaper to set another car like a GTST up for drift, all cars will require a great deal of money to be spent. the only difference would be the initial purchase price of the car. you would be looking at 15k + the purchase price of the car easy.

      I know it's an entirely different engine, but I noticed practically 0 difference removing or adding 2x 3in (5inch body) 400cell cats (one in each bank) with regards to sound. So changing the cat to change drone I suspect will have very very, very, very, very, very very minimal impact.

      200 cell cat will probably help. Do you have room to tee off a Helmholtz resonator anywhere along the exhaust? These can do wonders for drones, with a little experimentation with regards to length.

      The car revs up through the gears much better/faster now, and fuel consumption doesn't really seem to have be affected either on a Hwy cruise, which wasn't expected  The FAB9 intake manifold has been problematic sourcing though, I've contacted Plasmaman to ask about their intake, which you can get different runner lengths spec'd, and, their different options for throttle bodies  The only real physical drawback with the Plasmaman intake is how to connect it to my current OEM style airbox, as FAB9 make a OEM style back half of the airbox to suit the larger diameter throttle body, and all that is required is a 30°bend silicone pipe to mate the throttle body to the airbox Car also goes in for some exhaust work in a week or so to fit the biggest resonator they can fit clearance wise in the front pipe to help remove some of the drone, there isn't alot of realestate under there, a rough guesstimation is it will only be about 3-400mm long and maybe 90-100mm diameter, and with a 60mm exhaust that doesn't leave alot of space for the internal volume of the resonator to do its thing I'm thinking I may need to bin the "high flow" 100 cell cat for something a bit more substantial, yeah, and restrictive, like a 200-400 cell, to help, but, I have ample room for a really large bodied cat to replace the current one which has around a 4" diameter body I may look around in the recycling bins and see if I can find a massive newish cat that was "replaced" with some new full exhaust system that the local exhaust shop in Western Sydney is doing

      Hahah look at that smile 😂 Just like those ones on IG where they compare the husband in family photos vs husband going fishing lol. I don't think I'll participate this time, clutch isn't in and also the last time I went there were too many numpties on the cruise sessions. Nearly caused a few accidents holding up people and a few guys initiating massive kerb to kerb drifts with heaps of cars right behind them. Not to mention, there were guys on the track session using it as a power cruise session.
