not exactly drifting, but fun either way

Hey you got some good oil burning if that's your car! Turbo?

 

[H@xtGSX]

I can drift my AWD... Not on purpose though. Easiest to accomplish on a sandy pea gravel road. It'll swing around, if you come into a corner and force it into a severe understeer slide and then keep mowing into the turn... They do understeer too much.

make it oversteer with the weight transition and an e-brake....

Yea, that'll bring it around alright... It's the controlling it when you do that that is the real trick. I can't do it. Once it gets the ass end around sideways, it is going to finish the revolution, from my experience. There is virtually no lateral pull once you pass the steering rack. At that point, you are hoping there is nothing hard in your path you're going to slam into.

It was raining, my one day at the track this year.. Fml, I had to turn my boost way down just to keep it controlable in the wet conditions. But it was fun! Awd drifting is my main objective with this car

 

[necrotopsy]

^^ that looks like fun

 

[NHerron]

Pretty cool Matt

 

[AshyBone]

Matt, I don't know you but that looks amazing.

As far as rwd Doesn't everybody know a wideblock 4g63 bolts to the starion rwd tranny? Run a standalone and a bunch of other expensive crap that will take alot of work and time and there you go. OR get a Starion and drop a 4g in it... Better yet a 2jz. You couldn't imagine how many people on starquestclub have done that.... And argue about it.

 

[jasjasbinks]

that is indeed cool nice work!

Drift DSM RWD GSX GT Live VIR 1993 6/4 LSD Evo316G - Car Videos on StreetFire

Here is the one previously spoken of. still featured At StreetWise Drift events on occation. <<belongs to the announcer of that series. Its sitting out in my garage as we speek waiting for my attention

Easily done via welding the VCE &removing front shafts. ( placing blank stub end back in place) Good fun.. very poorly balance cars for drifting.. once the EVO III REar end is installed it'll be golden

The car in the originally posted video has a Cusco Tarmac center differential that is no longer available. It puts the torque split at 35/65 F/R.

Sure, you can drift a DSM all day with some power and that kind of center diff, the problem is nothing this side of a severely build drivetrain can handle it for very long.

EDIT: wrong thread, sorry for the bump.

My friend owned a 240 built and he told me that my eclipse turning radius isn't good enought to drift or turn eclipse are only good for straight line

 

[mattmullin]

Warren, you can modify the steering spindles for more angle. In order to get a lot of drift angle on a rwd setup you need modified front steering spindles on all cars. Including 240's. But on an awd, you dont need the angle as its a totally different style of drifting.
And yes rwd4g63, I have broken many transmissions, its time for me to put a dogbox in the car. And that center diff is still available, special order. It isn't needed to drift awd but it sure helps. Helps with the understeering of these cars as well..

 

[stockfornow]

Matt is right, you don't need crazy turn angle on the Dsm when drifting awd, because it's completely different than drifting a RWD... However, even when drifting a dsm in RWD mode it has enough turn angle (only problem is P/S pump cuts out at high rpms...), it actually has more turn angle than a 2002 Mustang GT, trust me... I drifted both in the same day at the same track.

Somebody get me another set of 4 bolt axles (I broke all of mine...) and I will shoot a video, and prove it, that it could be done in real life also, even on stock knuckles

Proffesionally, a blue galant vr4, No dsm though.

At 3:50

If anyone want to really do this is i have suspension specs from spring rates to toe Adjustments for the weight transfer of 2gs, first of DSM's are poor for drifting on RWD mode because nobody had took the time to really set one up the way it should be, its not just slap some coil-overs and set them hard, its far from that just a fast example, front toe out rear tow in.
Some rookies tend to say to run lots of negative camber but that's wrong too.

 

[DSMK1NG]

Yes im a pro they call me ken block

 

[phizzalot]

Nice vid didn't know about the vr4.. Any more info or links?

 

[warren]

Yeah because galant got a better turning ratio than eclipse .
But I could be done just got to alots of adjustment
