what you mean by that? you just wanna know or what ar? not really clear lor... don't mean to sound lansi or anything..... not clear lar your post???

 

[sam1741]

i mean
what things need to be change/service regulary for drift car (what item)
how long those things last (how long? how many km? )

so that i can prepare for the service

 

[leviathan]

like that ar... by order of importance apart from standard servicing

1. LSD oil
2. Gearbox oil
3. power steering fluid

for beginners... prepare to fork out money for replacement clutch plates, clutch covers, longshafts, LSD and gearbox for the first year of practice, that is if you don't crash into anything. cushing change along the way la... when they kong then you change lor...

once you're more familiar and don't jolt your drivetrain too much, your wear and tear should reduce significantly.

can last how many km i don't know. but thats based on ae86/ke70 only.... nissans seem to be a bit more kebal, maybe because their newer and most likely have more advanced parts.

hardly use brakes when drifting... should last you a long time. unless you drive ff then maintain your hydraulic pressure often for handbrake (discs) for drum brake just clean and tighten often.

lastly, drifting is not cheap... the more serious you are the more you'll spend

 

[sam1741]

i am poor...
but i wan to become a drifter....

i'll sacrifice some on food n electric....

 

[space_cowboy]

dude, the servicing is important...

May i suggest, the brake pads u only change them when needed too. N when u change those pads, go for a better ones, u cheap ones will tend to make u change them more often.It depends on how u use them, u drift more, u change often..

The servicing part, if ur using Turbo's, then change them regulary like once a month, this also depends wheter how u 'lenjan' ur car..the gearbox and LSD oil, change them like once evry three time u change ur change ur black oil..LSD oil is very important..

I may be wrong...

cheers'
