You can knock off every Japanese car on your list, consider a Pontiac Fiero or something.

"drifting and autocross is for the week, we only do maximum velocity"

all of those are either too expensive, shit, or both.
get a fucking 240sx or some other shitbox nissan.

literally none of those fit within your budget, even with the "couple grand more." you will be in for 5k+ off the bat with most of those.

lord no. have i been troleld?

I've seen a couple AE86s in my area get sold for $2000 and $5000. Hell, I was about to buy an '85 Celica Supra for $2.5k but I needed the $$$ at the time. But I ain't a total broke nigger, I'm willing to go up to $8000+ if the deal is right. I'm in no rush.

>>17646501
everyone go home, OP is a retard.

>>17646501
>What's good

Fuck off nigger

>>17646633
those were probably sr5s, ie ae85s basically
the supra would probably be close to death via head gasket failure
here's the reality: you can find 30-40 year old cars that are still running well, and you can find 30-40 year old cars for cheap, but you will very, very rarely find one that is both and certainly not the types you're looking for

Good luck. If you do find one for that price it's either a pos or an auto sedan with drum brakes in the rear.

Dont get a honda if you want to drift, hondas are for grip driving.
MR2 will be difficult to conrol in a drift because its mid engine. If you do get one, get the sw20 because the earlier AW11 is more unstable if youre trying to drift.

Look at old celica supras yeah, Nissan s12 and Toyota Soarer or lexus ls300, ls200

>>17646501
literally none of those you stupid nigger
all of these cars are out of your price range or are shit for what you want to do. if you want to drift for real just buy a foxbody or an sn95 with a v8 and be happy. huge aftermarket with a quickly growing section of drift parts due to 240s being priced into turbonigger range.
if you want to be a JDM doofus buy something pedestrian and make it super fucking clean and everybody at meets will fondle your dong and wonder how you got such a clean example.

>>17646501
>Toyota MR2
Mid-engine isn't what you want for drifting
>Toyota AE86 Corolla
at least three times your budget for one in even mildly decent condition
>Nissan Skyline GTR
Add another zero to your budget
>Honda CRX, Honda Prelude, Honda Integra
Decent cars, but FWD so not for drifting
>Honda NSX
See "Skyline GTR" above, then double it.

But really nothing in your list is in your budget, and pretty much any car you get for $2500 will be a pile of shit.

>>17647305
>MR2 will be difficult to conrol in a drift because its mid engine. If you do get one, get the sw20 because the earlier AW11 is more unstable if youre trying to drift.
WRONG WRONG SO FUCKING WRONG PLEASE DEAR GOD DON'T SAY RETARDED SHIT IN HERE
AW11 is shorter wheelbase yes but has better suspension settings for stability and is less likely to kill this faggot

>>17647351
Thank you for saying it. I was about to.

first droft car
>AE 86
dude if you get it for that price, and its running,
then you are god alighty , and even then you will fail
becouse the tureno wont go sideways for a level 0 drifter.

Couldn't you just buy a Volvo for a piss-poor budget? At least you wouldn't be afraid to trash it.

a mustang gt could do the job in theory
>decent power
>lsd

how about non-jdm doriftos like the ford sierra, i'm thinking it's a nice DD plus it's RWD so i should theoretically be able to skid without butchering the diff or anything.

I have a bone stock 'chuki' 1986 turbo model. Ive replaced a lot that didnt need replacing. And replaced everything that needed it. Its at 112k miles.

For the right price its yours ;)

Look at your list of cars. Cross off all of the ones that you wouldn't be comfortable with running into a wall. That is how you find your first drift car.

>>17646501
I'm looking for DD that I can use to hoon around on a weekend like once a month.
How much power would the car need to get a drift going on a dry road?
I have a small list and they all make 170...215hp, Diesel and petrol engines

>>17646501
Not a big fun of them, but just get a miata desu

>>17648591
I've found a mint mx83 cressida that I want. Not as a drift car, but just as a nice daily that could go sideways if I wanted. I really want a manual though, and these cars never came with a stick shift where I am. I've read that converting them is easy compared to other cars, but it's still a lot of work. Worth it?

>>17646501

Skyline GTR is out of the question, since drifting requires countersteering. And if you need to countersteer in an AWD, something is VERY wrong. Most you can do is skid while grip driving.

Most Hondas are FWD as well, which unless the situation allows for it (snow, rain), you won't be able to "drift". Powersliding is also a possibility. The NSX is possibly the only car from Honda capable of drifting from your list.

MR2's and Meme86's also suffer from snap-oversteer if you don't watch what you do.

Just get a miata

>>17649179
S13 that looks like this is worth $15k+

That type X kit alone is worth $2.5k lmao

>>17646797
>-first gen nissan sentra/datsun 810
bretty good suggestion, its pretty much an s130 with 4 doors, l28et will swap in.. or any nissan l series. The v8 swap kits for the s130 should fit as well if you have a weekend and $500 for an LS7 from a junk yard.

>>17646501
OP if you have 2500, I'd suggest a 97-2003 Mustang. They are EXTREMELY cheap and common in Socal, check criegslist most are under 2600 if not less. Parts are common, and you get a v8. Manuals aren't too hard to find.

Good luck. Don't buy into meme jap cars.
