Drifting
 

I just ordered some Teins...and need to know how to set them up for mad sideways action. Who has the answer?

Install them backwards, that should negatively affect your rear traction.

Install them, and then cut the springs for that mad tyte JDM stance!

This plus crisco on the tires. Front too for increased odds of hitting a tree or telephone pole.

Lets not crap the new section with useless posts guys....... at least not yet.

Sorry, I've been in a useless post kind of mood all day. Something about having to train new people at work brings it out in me.

this thread is a joke. just lol with it.

We need a new moderator in this section. I know a guy that volunteered in another section/thread.:fawk:

i have my stance setup 8-10 out of 16...

Drift!!!!

Get yourself a 240sx. Single cam, open diff, and coilovers is all you need. OR if you get lucky you can find a RHD straight from Japan. Its easier to drift.

Go to M.net, they will put up with your shit there, drifter fag! :loser:

You haters need to back the fuck off.

Doriftoing is a motorsport too, which requires getting the most out of your car, and mad skillz...like car control.

I just asked a simple question about suspension setup, something I thought you Miata fags knew a lot about, and ya'll act all homo and shit.

Screw you mother fuckers...I'm going back to the Suby scene.

The key is to hit 15,000rpm in 4th gear at 21 psi.

It's got a rotary with chromoly rods...it spins man...it spins.

21psi is for newbs.

Whats the biggest rear sway bar you can pot in a miata?

also, I heard that welding your differential is better than an LSD? confirm or deny.

ask your mom...I put a pretty big bar in her last night

Already done...wtf does this have to do with my suspension. Go start your own damn thread.

what version did you order? basic, ss, flex, mono..

SS

Now please tell me you actually have some real advice...


Actually I want to keep from drifting. Anybody else run these?

What works to remove oversteer short of swapping springs?

These will see AutoX action soon. Stiffest I want for the street, and should be good enough to knock some cones over.

Then more negative camber you have the better the handling

step 1, sell your car.
step 2, buy Derek King's car.

I don't even measure camber in degrees...I measure that shit in which mountain in the background my tire's pointing to.

*I also measure ride height using housekeys.

Holy shit!

Where'd you find that???!@

That car is legendary around here.

lol I know it is, that is from his f/s ad in the classifieds.

I thought I said to get the fuck out you raging homosexual! What retard wants to drift a FWD Miata anyway!? Jesus, this place has gone downhill with this Race Prep section. :facepalm:

ebrake that bitch

Clutch kick super technique. AND Scandinavian Folick-do! America Namba 1!

For the record I would driver the fuck out of this thing. IF I could get a full lock without screwing myself. 4show nigs.

I would drive it to your mother's house, matter of fact I think that pic was taken when she was in it.

more negative in the front than rear = win. no joke.

yah, from what I understand many run with the absolute maximum negative camber in the font possible.
But you dont usually see that, you see this

Don't forget these wheels, 16x12's 0mm offset, with 185/35/16 tires and 15 degrees of negative camber. Also, itb's AND a supercharger.

Edit: forgot the Drift knob.

oh and a hydraulic hand brake for the rear wheels

oh, and dont forget your apexi SAFC... *facepalm*

I have some how ended up with a Sard turbo timer...

So just sell it, buy a civic and steal mad trayzz from wendyz yo.

YouTube - Tray Drifting

What spring rates did you go with? This thread is getting a bit outta hand lol, but I gotta say you asked for it..

100 in the front, 1300 in the rear.

Wow, this shit is insane.
Piston rotary, backward 13000lbs springs. Good prep for drift.

Just set them up like a regular track car..... You want all the traction you can get... Please dont bring the drift community down much further..

It's amazing, normally the car has normal camber and a 13.5'' ride height... :bowrofl: I don't want to spill any drift secrets, but I hear lunch trays help us FWD people.

All of you people are mormon. Stop shitting on the new section faggettes.

ITBs for drifting? - ClubRoadster.net

Thats all i gotsa say abowt dat!

Come on now, we all know gangstas are the ones that do it sideways.

Dude! Shit, I wasn't expecting that as the first post of the page. I saw the word Mormon, then BAM!

LOL! Best use of food trays ever.

Amazingly, I found it by searching Google images with..."Mormon". Didn't even have to add additional words.

The internet makes this too easy.

no rear bar, 3/4 up from full soft up frt., 1/2 way up in the rear. 12.5'' ride height all around, -1.25deg. frt. / -1.75rr., 3.5-4.0deg. caster, run a couple psi higher up frt. compared to rear tires. this is assuming r-comps and driving the shit out of it. if you can't drive it to it's limits then this will be a little understeery for you.

Only 1/2? You're no fun.

And in other news, I just watched a commercial from the local Ford dealer. The owner of the dealership was wearing a black turtleneck, a beret, and sunglasses. He growled "Pants on the ground" while the ventriloquist's dummy next to him played the bongos. And yes, it was amazing. I wish I had been drinking when I saw it.

I wonder if you know
How they live in Tokyo
If you see me then you mean it
Then you know you have to go
Fast and furious (drift, drift, drift)
Fast and furious (drift, drift, drift)
[Repeat]

God dammit.
First day as a mod, I'm away from a computer for 3 hours, and you guyz give me this?!? Where's the select-all-and-delete button...

if ANYONE in the future actually looks at this:

How to increase understeer:
Raise front tire pressure
Lower rear tire pressure
Smaller front tire section
Larger rear tire section
More positive front wheel camber
More negative rear wheel camber
Stiff front springs
Softer rear springs
Stiffer front anti-roll bar
Softer rear anti-roll bar
Weight distribution towards the front

How to increase oversteer:
Lower front tire pressure
Raise rear tire pressure
Larger front tire section
Smaller rear tire section
More negative front wheel camber
More positive rear wheel camber
Softer front springs
Stiffer rear springs
Softer front anti-roll bar
Stiffer rear anti-roll bar
Weight distribution towards the rear

Now all of you go do all of the things under "How to increase oversteer" and go hit a light pole.

How to increase understeer:
Mount a vertical/horizontal stabilizer off a DC-9 to the back of your volvo?

How to increase oversteer:
Dual fart cans.
Graphics around your taillights.
200 dollar ebay body kit.
Paint your car the color of a rotten orange.
Euroclears.
20 inch rims with 20 profile tires.

This vehicle is clearly at the pinnacle of drifting technology.

We need to hurry up and get to the next page so those dudes making out stop coming up on my desktop.

I'm butthurt that no one commented on my witty gay joke. :cry:

Come on, 4 more posts and it'll be gone.

You're mean! :mad:

;););););)

Also we all know suspension has nothing to do with drifting, it's how you stand by your car. durrr :facepalm:

I'm butt hurt no one liked my dorifto mobile.
