Questions for E30 drifters

[Jesse30]

why do you think we run fence pole exhausts and strobe lights?

[Danny]

Well drifting is like ice skating right? So the more retarded looking the costume, the better your score?

[Jesse30]

I didn't know there were homes on the road. that changes things.
stretched tires are rediculously stupid. but they serve a purpous in drifting.

lolwat?

what purpose do they serve in drifting?

[Danny]

but they serve a purpous in drifting.

A porpoise perhaps?

Stretched tires are no worse than muffin top tire fitment.

Aren't you always piping up about stretched tires being stupid? But drifting through oncoming traffic is alright, because everyone's doing it...

aight well ill contribute more. This may sound really fucking dumb but this little knob is ideal for drifting entry and ebrake control.

Basically it eliminates having to push the ebrake button in to release it, which makes using the ebrake much easier. imo its a must, granted you cant afford a hydro for better means of braking

Yeah, but e30s don't need that as they can be set to lock or not lock from factory :)

[Stephen]

Yeah that's very true. but read what they said many times. they had people waaay ahead to check for traffic and the roads not often travled. you don't go into other lanes without that.

The road has homes on it! There are far too many variables, like the cyclist that almost plowed me on that road because HE was cornering in the wrong lane.

Yea, I was actually tailing Accident on that road when the stupid cyclist crossed over and almost plowed his last e30on a turn.

i never had any under steer issues and was very controllable when sideways, i like it a lot. only thing else i could say is that is was a bit too tail happy which i probably could have fixed by adjusting the rear sway bar.

i will see how it does when i get the motor re-tuned and the car has a full cage now and is lighter.

I <3 this thread.

Ironically, this is still OT completely.

Haven't driven my e30 in a few years due to lack of time and rebuilding/swapping the engine but here is what i had and it drifted well.

Engine:
stock m20 with intake and autothority chip

Suspension:
Turner Motorsports J-Stock suspensions consisting of custom TMS springs, revalved Bilstein shocks, Suspension Techniques swaybars (22/19mm), camber plates, offset upper strut bearings, aluminum rear shock mounts, and all E30 reinforcement kits.

Rear End:
Stock diff

Thanks collins. What ratio rear diff? LSD I'm assuming. What did you like and dislike about the setup?
