I'm having great fun learning in the Omega :D dunno if it's necessarily advisable or not, i guess i'll let the experienced people tell you that :p
you can get em pretty cheap these days too
What would your budget be? I'd really suggest an S-body i.e. 180SX, 200SX, Silvia for starting out if you can afford it.
I reckon prob be a couple of grand at max gona start saving and have a few quid put aside already.Quote:

Having said that though, an AE86 is great to learn the basics in as its low power makes YOU use your skills to drift whereas nissans with much more power and stability make it easier to drift.. depends what your aiming for really!
