i've been drifting my stock 93 coupe' for about a year and a half now, no problem's except for my suspension is starting to make funny sound's.

upgrade your car as your skill's progress.

1. suspension, coilover's , or a nice set of tokico's susp. kit, etc.2. maybe some polyurethane bushing's, your rubber bushing's are prolly **** right now, like mine3. LSD, kaaz or cusco, if you have the $$$$, wich i don't.4. a nice comfy racing seat to keep you in place, it really work's, trust me.5. as you get better, your gonna want more grip in the rear, you'll need it for more stablity in faster corner's, so a nice wheel and tire package.6. only put one modifacation on at a time, that way you can judge if it help's or need's to be adjusted.7. have fun, and be safe.........drift on.

yea dude.. i would say the only mod i know is to take the button out of ur e brake.. and the spring ... replace it with a door lock button.. then when u pull it out it wont lock in place.. when u push it in it will so that u still have ur brake whn u need it...

safe drifting bro..

kills

1. tires2. bushings3. arms4. frame5. engine6. transmission7. differential8. shocks.9. etc...

it's really really stressful on your car.

my s14 is rikkity and creaky now. it's pretty ridiculous. once you hit something, it just gets worse. many of my bushings are replaced, so everything is metal-to-metal contact now.
