Car Make and Model : Fiat 125 Polski
Car Year : 1969

Your Comment of your first drift car : This car is my first MT car, my grandfather's car. I use it to practice driving when I was 10. My Dad using it until now. Well, it is really old and underpower(100bhps) for driffing, so I will only use it after a rainning, for drift.

Your Suggestions to newbie : You got old car with rear wheel driving it, use it. Change to a better rear wheel until you find yourself is telented in this. Suspension and tires pressure determine your drifting as well as horse power.

Your Ultimate next/dream drift car : Still my 125, maybe turbo kit and better suspension will help! hehe.. :regular_smile:

Your Comment of your first drift car : It's really a stabile car, with original great suspension and engine, come with either twin-weber or injection, running well and powerful. Cornering, I'm Lovin' It.

Hie Guys.

Car Make & Model : Nissan Cefiro A31
Car Year : 1992

Your Comment on your first drift car : It's simply marvellous. Was really amazed by how this huge Dinasour can perform in taking turns and corners, manuvering left n right with just a 2000cc turbo charged engine. And with speed too. Furthermore, can drive comfortably to work, meeting up clients, chill outs, 'tecker' gals.. Its the ultimate 'EXECUTIVE' Drift car. Lastly, the parts and modifications are cheap too. Hmm.. wonder who said A31 cannot drift..

Your suggestions to newbie : Get a car ur comfortable with, either budget or driving. Dont be to hard on yourself by showing to others what you cant afford. Go slow, time will come. Take it easy on the car and your wallet.

Your Ultimate next/dream drift car : A four door car with 100% Drift set up, hidden of course. And of course a Nissan.


cheers'

Hi! Guys,

I'm a newbie in dirfting. Need advise from someone setting up an old 1982 Toyota Corona.
Recommendation and critics are welcome.
Can't afford any other cars so have to settle for this!

Thanks in advance.
 
o'skool...

rear axle can use AE86 or if you're planning to turbocharged it, use A174 lancer LSD.

i believe the best engine for this car is the 20V BT mated with AE86 gearbox.

some people put in 1JZ but that hurts the car balanced and will understeer madly.

if u asked me, i'd suggest CA18det or SR20DET... easy power. hehehe...

but.. like i said, 20V BT... coz i've seen one in your kinda car b4. it's darn powderful!
 
Thanks a million Topui 11,

I thought the body for the corona is a bit heavy for 20V BT (1.6 if I'm not mistaken).

I also heard that there is one with 1JZ in drift competition before?

Where do you guys hang out? I'm in Subang area.

Thanks again.
 
o'skool

there will be an old skool drifters gathering soon. i suggest u come along and hang out. anyway, our usual hang out is at Dharoos, Uptown on Fridays, around 10pm to late. hehehe..

PM me if u wanna come out and TT.

i believe your car is the TT132, rite? i got a friend running 20V ST before on that car, and it's quite ok actually. now he got SR20det in there. there's also another guy from selayang with SR20det in his TT132. a friend on mine from seremban running 1G-GTE in his TT132. There's also one otai from setapak with RB20det in his TT132. hehehe

the one u mentioned should be Ah BOY from USJ, dark brown TT132 with 1JZGTE. damn scary oooo.

consider this, old chassis, powerful engine... can tahan or not? hehehe

kancil leh bro...cute liittle kancil leh....:emoticon_U: a31 quite expensive woh...bout 30k...
 
What i can say is that all of a sudden, tom, dick and harry wanna buy drift car.

As for me, a person driving such a car has no problem sorting out what car to buy for drifting...



cheers'
 
Hi!, I would get an A31, since it's a saloon; can use it as my daily drive too. That's my next project car, but I hear that later models are prone to roof rust. Is this true?

Good day.

Firstly, please consider how old is the car. And yes, this depends on how the owner take care of the car. Ppl cant just simply say A31 always get rust here n there. Mine DONT'. The weather plays a lot in this situation. A31 are manufactured from end 1989' until early 1995, what do you expect from this. The technologies and sealent used at that time isnt as good as nowadays.

There are a few ways of solving this problem. Quite a work, but it definately works.


cheers'
 
kei-office and space_cowboy, thanks for your feedback on the A31. . . much appreciated! Cheers!
