Welp, it's that time of year again in japan, cheap dealership deals to counter the nobody wanting a new car delivered in snow.
I plan on abusing this by picking up a Toyota GT86 RC, to upgrade tune and otherwise thrash about, depending on where in the world you are from this will either be a gt86, scion frs, or subaru brz, since the car is a result of companies pooling costa and development.
The reason im going for the RC version is simple, steel rims, unpainted bumpers, interior accents removed and el cheapo exhaust, all of which i would be changing for high end parts anyway so the RC means not spending 7k+ for parts i would otherwise be pulling off on the first week.
Anyone on these forums have experience with drifting / working on drift cars?
I have an old abused lancer that i have up until now used for my drifting fun but the chassis is starting to let go on it and really doesnt have much life left in it.
the goal is simply to go sideways but for the car to still look good while doing so, im not really interested in straight line speed or drag racing, so the stock boxer engine will do once i strap a turbo or suoercharger on it, but more importantly the gt86 rc has options from factory for a rollcage and strengthening struts all round to improvde rigidity, another bonus.
so any of you guys (or girls) drift? and please if your experience is in forza or gran turismo only, move along.
By all means post up pictures of your drifter (so long as its yours and not pulled off the interwebs)
