what way would you go about??

[ste]

just curious as i hoping to buy a car for sliding soon and id take a standard one if money on it was right..

so if it was standard how would you go about improving its performance and wat order would ya do the modifications in for best results??

lets use a s-body as an example

weld the diff, coilovers and a bucket seat is surely eniough??? (ya wouldnt even need the last 2!) just to get started anyway

Main 3 to get started anyway. Bucket seat and harness not essential but I'd certainly recommend it. Then maybe just extra lock spacers, basic power mods (intake, exhaust etc.) and plenty of cable ties. But the first 2 are all you essentially need really. After that you're startin to look at all the adjustable suspension stuff (camber arms, tension rods etc.) plus maybe more boost, but that kind of stuff is where it all starts to get more expensive.

Get a car with coilovers and the basic breathing and exhaust mods Ste (most jap cars for sale generally have this stuff done anyway), and then just weld the diff if standard and get seat and harness. Cheapest way about it really..

All depends on budget really ste

my 14 is fairly standard just boost controller,exhaust,hydro,extra lock and weled diff,does a good job 4 me as a beginner!!

Our S14 is bog standard bar blown coilovers, welded diff, bucket seat and steering wheel. Gaurantee you'll have most fun in something like this though

Now i havent had or dont have a drift car,only a road 180sx, but from wat ive picked up flicking around , main things ya would need from standard, jus basics, would be:

Roll cage, coilovers-suspension etc, fuel pump, 2way, fixed bucket seat
With the 2 way and the coilovers first.

Then maybe steering wheel, harness, gauges and so on!

Just what i think ste

seat,harness. coilovers,petrol and tyres, diff and go go go .......

[Chuck_g]

Id go down the line of, s14, welded diff, full strip and cut out anything u dont need, seat, harness, cooler, fuel pump, extra lock, up the boost a bit and drive on.

All these things can be done or gotten quite cheaply and once you learn how to drift a low powered car and have fun, start putting better bits in her.
