Its not Banji, its Manji or Choku-Dori.
cannonball: I dont now either. Could it be a mountain at wollongong  .
Shiri: Yes, uphill drifting. Midnight club style.

The guy driving is Alexi from IDA. He's also the one who does the commentry on the DVD
Anyone know where the touge scene was filmed? I couldnt ID the roads, but i thought it looked a bit NSW ish.
|
It was filmed a fairly decent drive West of Brisbane city from what I can gather. Darron Appleton is the nutter behind the wheel.

Maximum driveline abuse?
Even reputedly "tuff" factory stuff won't last long with the abuse dealt-out by constant clutch-kicks, handbrakies, DownShift-locks, flat-shifts, etc. in harrdkore dorifto.
I sez just get yo drift-on via. weight transfer and momentum.
Does that^^^("race"-drift) score points in Australia? I know Keichii Tsuchiya regards it quite highly . . . . .

that kinda drift is the hardest to pull off, as its gotta only disturb the cars momentum and balance a slight bit to initiate the drift... something that most aussie drifters havent mastered... also it doesn't look as good because of the smaller angle... but carries a MUCH higher speed through the corners!

Yeah, he's just trying to show a few techniques for the learners out there, and drifting with just weight transfer is a little more advanced.
And he also states that the S13 box is renowned for being weak in 3rd

That's how I travel sideways . . . Mainly in the wet I must admit. I racked up some serious trail-braking/turn-in oversteer practice in the ol' ST184 Celica when I had her. It helps that the Karting is all about rear-braking and turning-in at the same time . . .

I find weight shifting easiest by far..
Lift off with a bit of tuck in then plant it.
fun fun.
Or the old feint motion. I used to call it scandinavian flick untill i went a dori dori style lol

haha been playing LFS 2 alpha 0.5 a bit lately all the americans go on and on about weight shit drifting. I send them my setup and there like you can't drift that its too stiff no weight shift.
I occasionally use momentum into the corners and flow but use the handbrake alot. Its a damn cool game for drifting and you don't hurt anything yay.

They were actually showing 2 styles, the handbrake initiated drift, and the feint drift, but rather than just lifting off, he was clutch kicking, which starts the drift the same way (using weight shift and momentum) but results in the rear breaking traction a lot harder as the higher revving engine tries to put power down, which will get better entry angle than just lifting off, if you can stop it from spinning too far. It was doing this that he blew up third.
He then went to the Drift Battle silvia, which because it was CA powered, needed more regular clutch kicks to keep the revs up high through the turn.

The suspension can be stiff, i think they mean the shocks need travel(no bottoming, dont cut the springs too short).

You'll find that the handbrake is fine in Live-Axle cars, but can tear the shyte out of the bushes etc. in IRS equipped cars.
To be honest, I haven't really tried much full-on dori-dori on dry tarmac - I've gone half-a-corner's worth of pitch-in oversteer, or tyre-blazing oversteer in RWD's I don't really care about, but I usually save the all-out drift for low-friction surfaces. It's just too damn hard on the equipment in the dry without a proper LSD. (Factory Viscous LSD is teh ghey)
That said, I did get a healthy (scary?) wriggle & squirm-on from the rear about at 150km/h in 4th last week. God-bless 180kw at the treads.

nah they all run really soft setups, my setup is lowered a touch not much though. i drift twice as fast as most of them but its just a game a very cool one though. So many settings to play with best physics engine in any game by far.

A mate's G/F was recently gifted a 4cyl AUTOMATIC Corona (Boxy 80's last-model) - I have suggested a few ways to make cheap, bulk Hp for drag or drift, but He hasn't yet taken the bait. . . .

with letters like :
"i have my moms 1994 mitsubishi lancer... and i would like to fit an LSD in it... would it be enuff to drift?"
"im 17 years old, im thinking of getting a driftor car, i love this sport, im thinking of getting a panda Tureno or something like nomukens 4 door r34 skyline, i saved up 1500 for the last 2 years.."
reading that section of the mag always makes my day...
