So I went drifting in my Civic the other day...

[toneekay]

you are, i can answer that question for you.

tonee i have drifted a lot in my civic, you just need to "beef" up the rear to handle the weight shifts, and the power band that your car has. sideways torque on the car is a lot more than honda designed the car to handle, so we have to source parts from the aftermarket market place. ps, the rear endlinks off a r34 will fix any problems you may have with your lca bending.

Yea I have that r32 rear end suspension, it's awesome!!!

naturally they are cheaper, but my buddy has a shop that can custom fab the skyline parts, they are made of better metal(japan not german) so they can take the abuse sense the r34 was the best car ever made, using the parts for this application is the only way to go.

Yeeeee!

Drifting the civic when you have an STi that can do much better?


I don't get you tonee.

I only use the sti for economical reasons, Its better to drive that car from a to b since I get all the looks from the ladies.

it may be snowy outside but i still slide the lunch trays under the rear tires since they give you much more of a contact patch and since contact is necessary to slide, i know it cant hurt and away i go oh and the sti is much better for day to day than the civic since it has 4 doors


there wasnt a period in that wholllllle post...purposefully

I miss my old RWD car... I've noticed fwd cars have way sharper turns though, although I do miss drifting after a nice rainy day in that abandoned subdivision that stopped being built after all the road work and one house was complete about a mile down the road from me. I wish civics were RWD...

You don't need RWD brah, all you need is the ebrake and heel-toe. If you can master those, then you'll be golden in any type of car!

If you have a clutch keep it in second at about 20 mph and than pull the e-brake and get it to slide and correct using the ebrake as you need it to keep it sideways and feather the throttle ... Easiest way Ive found

 

[mark pones]

i was sorta kinda really joking. lol

I got new e-brake cables put in my car 2 days ago. For the first time in the 6-7 years I have owned the car, I can actually skid my rear tires while I am moving. I have never been able to do that. Even when I got the car at 141k, I had to pull the e-brake as far as it would go so it wouldn't move when I parked on hills. But it wasn't enough to completely stop the tires while moving. Now, I just click it 6 clicks. f**king AWESOME . I love it. Plus, I haven't had an e-brake in nearly a month .

Did you try to tighten the ebrake cable bolt right behind/under your center console/armrest? This could've solved that problem unless your cables WERE really "bad."

Nope... there's an easier way.
