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

    • Spotted in Adelaide last week.... mine! New to me two weeks ago.. love it!
    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
