What are good, affordable cars that specialize in drifting? I've wanted to start practicing in the drifting circuit and have enough money to buy and repair an used car

why not just use a pickup or whatever? a v6 s10 probably can do it

is it really affordable tough? I tought it would be pretty difficult to find

>>13824286
does it really matter? its not like theres a rule you have to use whatever car. thats why i said s10. common, dirt cheap, just throw in a posi and go.

what about a 4th gen f body?

v8 and welded diff should make it allright, maybe some suspension upgrades and it will be fine as a starting car

Yes, because I'm sure he wants to do a manual swap...
>>
>>13824382
if he goes for his first drift car he will not care for the electric shit or a/c that break, the drivetrain of these cars is actualy very robust

Why not just get the AE86?

once it goes the aluminum engine block will melt and deform and you can throw it away.

do you think he will never look at the temp? when you see it rise you slow down and not continue to go hard and peg the needle, simple as that

>>13824576
I don't think you know how bmws work
>>
>>13824576
Also it's not cheap. Once m52 decides to fuck you over and start overheating you can pretty much throw your credit card at it and start replacing every single thing in the engine bay one by one and chances are it will still be overheating by the time you run out of money. And once again, once it overheats once, everything gets warped and its done for

in yurop you can just get a new one for like 800€, no need to repair it

experience
every teenage russian considers it to be his personal mission to own an old 3 series and drive like madman. Had plenty of friends.
M50 which is used for e36 models up to 2.0l is made of iron alloy and wont warp and is serviceable. m52 is not.

arguably

they fabbed up an entire front suspension for that car m8
>>
>>13824801
im pretty sure that the e36 325 still uses the m50, just not the 328
>>
>>13825014
you're right. I think they also have some overheating issues but then it won't be as critical as the chance of anything really warping would be lower

Theres 3 running mr2s in my area with under 100k miles for under 2000 dollars. They are still cheap in upstate ny

This is correct.

Shhh
>>
>>13825579
>>13825579
true
but a posi and rear swaybar go a long ways too.
maybe a beater s10 extreme with the 4.3 would be good

And for the mega budget minded, a Volvo 240.
>>
>>13824406

Fucking, Torque!!

Drop it into 2.
>>
>>13824420

Because they cost more than C4s and ironically the Celica Supras of the same years.

Other honourable mentions would be S12s, Fieros in bodykits, Chrysler Conquests, Datsun 280zx, and E34s, and shitty old Benzs'.
>>
>>13824889

>implying its the only car ever to have a modded suspension for racing purposes.
>>
>>13824420
86s are actually overpriced because of initial d.

I'd like to own one because of the show too but def not a budget car for what it is.

Even the almighty drift king himself says they're hard as fuck to drift.

>>
>>13828090
this their basically garage queens now at this stage
240sx are expensivee for the drift scene too while hatchbacks are cursed and most all are fucked, while the coupes are usually looked down upon if it doesn't have the silvia front end conversion

mr2's usually don't have the rice tax but something will more than likely be wrong with it and if you dont have the supercharged or turbo ones gain carry the stigma

240z,300z/x same as above
>>
>>13826801
I would rather have the AE86 over those two cars. 1000lbs + lighter, screaming dual cam I4, cooler, and handle better
>>
>>13824548
i have an lowerd 01 expedition that i drove hard often for reasons

can confirm shit blew spark plugs since the head is aluminum with shitty threads
>>
>>13828225
Z31s can usually be found in god condition. The Z32s are beat to shit, but the n/a ones suck compared to the Z31.

AW11s can be had in really good condition for cheap too.
>>
>>13824853
not that guy nut for drifting yes

ff cars is just throwing the ass out the corner to get thru quicker
>>
>>13828280
>Z32s are beat to shit, but the n/a ones suck compared to the Z31
can confirm the beat to shit part i have a z32 na that i used as a track/street toy till it i assumed got oil starved or some shit and a piston rod bearing basically wore out/ spun out and fucked the crankshaft up. but it did spit out dopamine for me while it worked. never used a z31 tho

buying an 86 from auction in JP desu

ez 4-5k
