I used to have a ford courier...it was a 1.8 non-turbo diesel Front Wheel Drive van? Surely thats not what you mean is it...Am I getting my wires crossed? :confused:
 
Right, I could wade through all this thread, but being bone-idle..... :rolleyes:

Having been on the SXOC for a few years now, I'm more into getting round a track ASAP. I'd like to learn to drift, not because I particularly want to drift as such, but I want to learn more about driving on the limits, and how to turn a sticky moment on track into something more graceful.

Does that make sense?

Where do I start?

Oh, and I don't want to drift on the street. I'm firmly into keeping motorsport on the circuit.
 
How much roughly should i be paying for a standard s14 silvia? Dont know much about this aul craic but i want one.:smash: How do u find the difference is yen to pounds, i go on to alot of japanese importing sites and all the prices r in yen so i havent a clue how much they r?? how does the whole thing work if i want a car took back, is there duty and all to pay or wat??

They're not as good as they should be as drift cars. A 350Z vs an S15 Silvia out the box as a drift car, the S15 will be lots better.
