you would like team mouse then, all AE86 drift team

[coconutt]

I've seen that team. I just like drifting in general though, I can care less what kind of car is doing it. I actually like Gymkhana more, since you don't need power mods.

[180roman]

who said u need power mods to drift

i started drifting my 180 when it was full stock

the only power mods i have atm on the car is an ARC sidemount intercooler and a 3" exhaust, i didn't even raise the boost

[coconutt]

Oh I know you don't need power to drift. I was just comparing high speed drifts. If I wanted to do high speed drifts, I wanna be able to feather the throttle while holding the drift (turbocharged cars) rather than full throttle and no torque (stock ae86 lol).

Gymkhana is just the route I'm taking, since I can have the reliability from a stock engine and be able to practice with low speed control.

Are there Gymkhana events over there?

[180roman]

yeah i've done about 9 gymkhana events in the 180

it was good to learn the car and how it behaves when i first got it, but after a few events i started to muck around trying to slide the course and make smoke

i'm nowhere as good as the guys i went to these gymkhanas with, some can link the whole course which i find hard on the skidpan surface

[Neil]

What do you guys think?
ke70/ae71
cressida
or R31?

That's cool. I've never attended an actual sanctioned event. But back when a cousin of mine had his S13 fastback, we'd go over to this parking area for the docks over a levee. Perfect open area for practice, and it's over the levee so it kinda muffles the revs and skids lol. There are sooo many tread marks down there, it's ridiculous. Anyway, we'd take cones that we've collected over time and put them down on these spray painted spots so we know where to put the cones each time. We'd have a good 20-30min session, then leave.
Now a days, with my AE86, I need to rebuild the motor since I have low compression across the board. I do that and pass smog, then i can get back in that game again.

What do you guys think?

cressida
or R31?

Those are all badass cars. Which Cressida? Boxy one right? Sorry idk the chassis code lol...
The KE70 though, that's my favorite classic import and would trade my Corolla for a non-running one. I'm hoping to restore and build one of those some day. Quad headlight version.

You mean the MX73?

R31, they are cheap have an RB30 which is pretty much indestructible coz most have been owned by old people who drive them to shops and back

Gearboxes are swappable with R32 and R33 and u can turbo them easy with a VL Turbo setup.

oh and I have 1 for sale

[180roman]

You mean the MX73?

get a Cresta they are better GX71 chassis code

1G-GZE Supercharged
