Wed, 30 April 2003 08:02 hehehehehehe..... your friends sounds like they've got initial d fever... For starters, not all RWD can drift. When was the last time you saw a commodore drifting? To get a drift setup to drift *safely* costs lots of $$$$. The stock sprinter has too much body roll. Just changin the springs is not sufficient. I looked into a whiteline package, and it costed like 2300 un installed. Most importantly, you need a Limited slip differntial and disc brakes if you want to do REAL drifts. No use getting into a drift, and counter steering for nothing, cause there is no traction to accelarate. Power slides, and e turns with the hand brakes does look flashy but arent' real drifts. An LSD rear end will cost about 2000 bux if you can find one. They are the holy grail for sprinter owners. Very hard to obtain. And then it's the issue of tyres. You'll need some good gripping wheels, or if you like the jap brand wank factor, the drift range (watanabes, etc..). As you could see, this could easily pump up the cost of your car to big $$$$$. If you are into drifting, go SILVIA.. They are cheaper to do up, and are newer. Or RX7, but the rotary is not everyones cup of tea. Rock ON. [Report message to a moderator]
