is this there any of you using sierras for drifting?
what are good mods to improve the handling?

I had my sierra I built in aghadowey there on Saturday, I want to improve the handling of her an thought I’d ask to see what has been tried and tested.
At the minute I have fitted rose joints to replace the track rod ends an moved closer to the strut to give me more lock. Also have coilovers all round.
The front wheels are rubbing the inner wing/chassis so I’m going to put 15” wheels with a low profile tyre to see what I can get away with here.
if its still rubbing i will make a set of adjustable rosejointed bottom arms.
also thinking of getting front wheels further forward to help with re-centering.

Granada wishbones and anti roll bar give you a nice big more track on the front so should give more clearance. Not sure do you have to use Granada hubs too cos balljoint is different. Cant remember.

Bita castor would be nice too, what top mounts you running?

sorry should have said i have all the granada stuff already in her too, so a bit wider track and some camber there

I thought all a sierra needed was surely just a hammer, grinder and a welder :p
