Sure, any car can drift. Doesnt mean its very good at it, or the effort you exert to make it worth the hassle. But yeah. Why not. Last years D1 lineup had a redneck using an automatic El Camino. Do the math....

it can drift, but the mechanics of AWD drifting... it is quite complicated, and again, it may not be worth the hassle of learning the zero counter drift technique... cuz its just sorta boring to watch.. but hey, to each his own. To answer the question. Yes, you can drift.
Posted 3/16/08
aaa ok then i guess i will find a Mitsubishi but why did you mean the old models anrt the new models as good as the olds ones or do the old ones leave more room for customization than the new ones oh and does the hachi-roku car actually exist?

1. No, he said old ones cuz all the new ones are front weel drive. the old ones arent. and also if your gonna learn, your gonna crash. period. so why mess up a $40,000 Lancer.
2. Yes. Hachi-Roku refers to the 1983-1986 toyota corolla. four models were available, the levin coup and the trueno hatch back, both available in SOHC (hachi-go or 85) or DOHC (Hachi-Roku or 86). 86 produced around 140bhp with 1.6ltr engine with an FR setting and lsd. It was prime for drifting. ^_^

Hi guys

I'm bout to start a fixing my ride in the summer and plus imma probably start on another car project in the future with my buddy im just wondering and can get an honest opinion which whip would have better take off? cause right now i can't decide i either think between these 2 cars an 01' integra LS which by the way i currently ride right now and a 98' 240sx SE would be the project car all stock

Thats a tough call. Itd be easier (and cheaper) to prep the integra, cuz all you gotta do is gain power and lose weight, while the 240 you have to take weight distribution into account. Then again, if you take the extra time and effort (and spend the extra cash) not many cars can beat a well prepped silvia. guess it all comes down to what you wanna do with it and the size of your pocket.

I see, yeah it would be easier for me to prep da integra, but also i took into consideration that i might wanna do a drift car and i know you can or can't drift with a fwd car i not saying its not possible im just saying that i don't have the proper skillz to do that yet. but yea is it wise to use the integra, i've tried and done some nice u-turn drifts. currently i've done a tune up with the ride, have some dc headers, weapon r air intake, new starter kit and a mod ecu chip

well..... on my last statement i tried to be as objective and un-biased as possible. To give you a usefull answer. But ill put it this way, my car last year was a Suzuki Aerio SX. I am now the proud owner of a 1995 240SX SE. Guess what id tell you next.
