Looking to buy a car that I can learn drift on.

Basically, that means, it has to be rear wheel drive & manual with some decent power.

Im looking for something up to $1,000

ofcourse, if you have something particularly powerful and perfect drift then I might go over that limit.

Thanks

bit of repairs n she b sweet

hmm... that would bring it to $4000 for the total cost when it's done...

That's a little over my budget, great car though, if i had the budget, perhaps i would.

I beg to differ Vic, I might not get anyone on here selling a car for $1,000 but a decent car for $1,000 does exist and those kind of things pop up a lot.

I got my old R31 for $400 and the only problem with it was that it was running on 5 cylinders, fixed that cheaply enough (the total cost was under $1,000).

Problem is at the time I was saving up for my R34 and had no chance in hell of keeping them both on the road.

But anyway, point of story, u do get decent cars for $1,000 every now and then.

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
