    You're drifting the wrong way into that corner - ass end is suppose to be out not in.

    Or just get some PVC and have at it.

        I’d engine swap as well, but I don’t have the space to do that unfortunately. I’d have to take it to a shop $$$

        Although theres been people who’ve done it at empty parking lots lol

              Lmfao. This is too good.

              The pvc is a good idea though. You have to be aware of the danger of poping your tires.

                I actually drifted my bone stock + 4.10 LSD 325i a couple weeks ago at Grange Motor Circuit. The car handled like a champ, all I did was put grippy Falken RT615Ks I had laying around on the front set to 35 psi and super cheap economy tires in the back set to 45 psi, bottle caps all around.



                Sorry no outside footage!

                    can anyone explain to me the difference from an lasd and a welded diff? It seems like everyone here just changes there ratio rather than welding it

                      LSD is limited slip, so it still slips a bit.

                      Welded diff has no slip.

                        Which would be better then? Or does it just very on how the driver feels?

                          If you can't get it sideways, you aren't trying hard enough.

                          Weight transfer alone should be enough. Trail-braking works and lifting works well too.

                          It would be easier if your steering wheel wasn't neo-chrome with sparkles. The car now knows the intention of its user and is fighting its demise.

                              you need a FWD car with McDonald trays underneath the rear wheels.

                              RWD is for pussies
