im pretty good at drifting in GT3. I dont get every turn but 9/10 times i make it worth watching in the replay.

I love doing a perfect drift and seeing it on the replay. ( I'm glad i' m not the only one) I have one saved that I watch sometimes its on the track w/continuous turns and the corkscrew. 1 perfect all drift lap in the white trueno. sadly the last turn before the replay ends I lost it, but still I love GT3 drifting!!!:arcadefre

i have an r33 and r34 both setup for excellent driftingjust enough power to the front wheels to recover from a wild drift

Along with an R32 GTR, I also have a 180sx Type-x, FC3S, Trueno, MR2 SW20, and Altezza that I use as my main drifting cars. I've gotten fairly good and I can't wait till GT4's drift-specific play modes!

in one of these vids a guy does the most amazing move he does a 360 spin and transitions perfectly into a drift in the first corner of Laguna Seca (in a Tommy Kaira ZZII) :shocked2 :shocked2 :shocked2

Post by **TachyonS14** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 2:45 pm

hahahah, thanks man. It's pretty old, but I likes it.

Post by **rico05** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 2:45 pm

I use an EVO V, a Trueno Apex SS Version, a R34 GT-R or a FD. I usually try and grip drive tho...

Post by **Nathan** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 2:45 pm

Do ya'll use wheels or the ****ty little controllers? I've been using the controller when I play and the only thing that gets me winning is a fast car, it sure as heck isn't the driving. I need to buy my roommate a wheel just so I can use it...

Post by **Onizuka** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 2:45 pm

you have to actually try to get the liscense without cheating to become good at the game.

as far as drifting, a s13 2000cc Silvia tuned to 280hp is always what i use, i have gotten so used to the car drifting is real easy.

Post by **prigo** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 2:45 pm

I use my 406 horsepower S15 to drift.

I prefer the control stick over the wheel, personally.

Post by **TachyonS14** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 2:45 pm

I to drift with the S14, but I also bust out the sweet a$$ RX-7 FD... But I still suck, i always hold the e-brake for too long or something cuz I go flyin off the road :-(

Post by **Onizuka** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 2:45 pm

i never use the Ebrake to drift, you have to put traction control and stability managment at 0 and learn how to press the buttons right (pressure sensitive remember). Then you just have to play around with difforent suspension settings and tire choice.

Post by **sachmo12345** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 2:45 pm

i sometimes use ebrake to start the drift

Post by **Onizuka** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 2:45 pm

yeah i played around with that but i couldnt get it to work as good as just carrying the correct amount of speed into a turn and modulating the throttle. With no traction control its easy to get the rear wheels-A-spinin'

Post by **bustav13t** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 2:45 pm

i can drift the whole wide left turn on Special Stage R5 with my s2000 type v and Trueno SS.

Post by **Onizuka** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 2:45 pm

the shingo GT Apex AE86 (the initial D car) wasnt as good at drifting as i expected, i get mush better results with the s13. same with the R32 GTS-t.

Post by **{S}Aint** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 2:45 pm

I try, but its hard with the controller, I need to invest in a G-Force wheel so I can join the ranks

Post by **Onizuka** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 2:45 pm

pft, Wheels are for weenies. im a strait up, cheap arse, controller drifter here!

Post by **{S}Aint** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 2:45 pm

My controller sucks, you have to mash the gas button to get it to go initially. Oh, BTW does anyone know how I can get the Trueno with the black hood. I cant think of the name right now, but I know its usually in the begginers league 80's car cup races. If someone could help me with that I'd love 'em bunches.

Post by **Onizuka** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 2:45 pm

i think you have get all golds on the amature (the second level races) league FR series, its not as good of a car as i expected...

Post by **{S}Aint** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 2:45 pm

Hmmmm...I'm going to have to try to get once I get home...After my detention. School Sucks!

Post by **{S}Aint** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 2:45 pm

Oh, BTW you wouldn't happen to know the stats off hand?

Post by **bbandit** » Mon Oct 06, 2003 2:45 pm

I never use e-brake to initiate drift in GT3. I have a wheel and pedals, so I set up the car to oversteer, buy simulation tires, and then use feint to initiate the drift. I use a ~250hp AE86, and a 254HP S13 and when you set up the suspension right they both perform about the same.
