IN my experience the 32 is just easier to slide lol, mind you anything is easier then the ae86 i drive now, i guess people use 32's more because, they're cheaper, more of them, more options in parts like body kits cos u know a kits inportant to drift with lol, but out of all the cars ive driven my top 3 easiest was, r32, r31 and S13 but even in saying that, it all depends on the setup and the type of driver you are.

Dunno if that helps but yeh.

what i dont get is how people dont drift them due to size and weight issues - its weird if the japanese think this aswell as they absolutely love cefiros, jzx100 etc etc

if a big old cefiro family car can slide well why not an r33...

btw great thread keep updating with pics/ vids

What about the JMS R33 drifter that became Mark Phillips ppg then martini drift car? That car was mental. I remember the first time i went to a drift event at Mallala I saw that 33 tearing up the main straight. That car was awsome

they were good times and dont forget port gawler lol

Ceffies and Jxz100s are both smaller and lighter than an R33.

The 33 does has plenty of potential though as shown by the pics/vids above

A chaser lighter than a 33..hmmmm.

lol all you guys that have experienced all the different chassis and models are lucky...

i ha ve to say r33 is easy to drift but thats comparing to my old cars, a vx with a spool and a volvo 360 glt..... the 33 was amazing haha

would love to try an s chassis if what everyone says is true..

i think the long wheel base makes it more fun

, My r33 is built for drifting, its got all the basics, 2-way diff, pinapples, 255kws,9point cusco saftey 21 cage, big fat rims 18x10's with phat offset..

I think r33's are good for drifting, its the way you drift, your style.

here are some videos of me drifting at winton.

and some photos

    • We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.
    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
