Stock KA's are just fine. To many people are just in a rush to be JDM Fabulous and think they need an RB or an SR to learn how to drift.

Car looks nice man.

the mods that are done is D2 coilovers, battleversion tension rods, Tein tie rods with spacers, spec clutch stage 3, aluminum spec flywheel, megan v2 short shifter, exhaust, and thats about it. Power-wise, I've been sliding a stock KA for over 3 years. just 1 year of it was events. I've gotten to the point that the only track around thats worth a **** is moroso. and it requires 70mph entries. and with the events happening every month I've done this track 4 times and with no lift with weight transfer I can hold the slides from start through the apex to the exit of the turn. Yet I can do that, the way the track is designed to slide the turns( 70mph entry 100 degree long *** turn to a shicane which is around 45-50 and then monji 50+ to the last 65-70 mph entry HUGE 180) require much more torque than my car is currently pushing on a stock ka at 190k miles put on it. I'm not someone that wants to be JDM tyte. my dream is actually a KA26t which will eventually be in my next vert. but this one is getting an sr20 just cause the fact I can get this as a deal atm.

dam man, nice stuff slidin on a stock ka. Is its harder to drift verts comparted to hatches and coupes? Suposly the weight difference makes it kinda of a pain. My team mates both have verts and they have trouble...

I've let 2 people that CAN slide there cars pretty damn good (one with a full hooked up hatch SR and all. Another with SR20 s14, and stock 240 couple. and they both couldn't slide the car like I can. its really heavy but its all about 2nd gear no lift. but 3rd gear no lift is real hard, you need the right speed to entire and just drop the clutch from redline and hold the gas and dont think of crashing

its slidable, best thing I ever did was a welded diff

what?

thats what I used to do, stock sohc for almost 2.5years, boosted ka ftw tho, your used to the trq a ka puts out, sr may not be best bet, you can put a turbo on your ka for far less than any sr swap! keep it up with your suspension work, thats a big part of sliding, under powered cars anyways, now I rely on power not doing any 70mph entries though,thats nice btw.

push your dreams man its official, I want a vert, my 3y/o was telling me the other day I need one, seeing your under powered *** slide that nice I'm on the look out lol.
