Suspension a bit stiff but got aircond and stereo.

 

[khen]

Sup yeah I have been using my s13 for the past 3 years as a daily driver and drift car. It gets annoying because the car never gets to rest and you replace more parts than usual but yeah it can be done.

 

[nottyeddy]

most people here use their daily drive cars as drift cars.. not many ppl can afford dedicated drift cars that spend most of their time in the workshop and come out whenever got events..

 

[corolla_KE70]

yeah.. unless you are sponsored from some workshop, just like in the drag race.

for me the most important thing is the tyre u use

get another sets of tyres or rims

use different tyres when u r driftin n on the street
for safety purpose la dun tell me u wanna drive on the street with those botak tyres

:) *peace*

true drifting dont use botak tyres mah... u see D1 drift competition, cars can drift at such high speed because they have enough grip to slide through apex...
well, of coz botak tyres easy to lose traction, thus easy to drift... but this also means less speed needed to drift....
in D1, speed is also a judging factor....

No one drifts on bald tire. On bald tires, all that happens is endless spins.

hi dude.
hello..
A drift car can be used a daily car. This depends on how you mod the car actually. A lot of factors come in hand. Most of us here as mentioned by notty-boy and faisal. there's only limited drifters here who has a 2nd car to use as a daily car for their purpose.

Its all about settings. A good choice to start with is a KE with a lower budget, and if you slightly higher budget, go for A31.

Me myself use my A31 for drifting and daily use. Not to mentioned 'balik kampung' as well.


cheers'

ur advise will now be answered - hehehe.. (hopefully it helps ler)

bro. like me, i'm using a 2-way lsd as well. as u know my nature of job rite. its not really a problem. its only the sound you gotta get used to. a while later, u'll get use to it. its a good thing u learn drifting with lsd, as it helps a lot bro. with lsd, its easier to drift and to get back in control. (that for me ler). the only thing with lsd is, u gotta take care of it. its very sensative. change the oil often. as for me, i change the oil every 3 times i service my car.

i might be wrong or in-informative. other drifters, please advise.

[space_cowboy]

Make sure you get the right one. U cant see a 2-way lsd from outside. You gotta open it up the u'll know.


cheers'

 

[julie2121]

D1 cars are all sponsored by big reputable tyre companies such as Advan, Bridgestones, etc.
Most change AD07/RE01R on all 4 corners very very often.. haha...

Whats that for the sponsors man ? :_:

Don't know when will D1 GP Malaysia reach that standard.
As in ALL cars have tyre sponsors.. hmmm ..
