Ah you're one of those people that have absolutely have no idea how much fabrication went into turning that thing into a drift car.

nothing about that suspension is cheap compared to an S-chassis (also Miatas are terrible for drift, but great for doing donuts in an empty parking lot)

I've been to plenty of drift event where people like you go to there with their bone stock mustang and think they can drift because they have the power to do it. They end up looking like dumbasses on the track constantly spinning out because they can't hold a drift at all.

>>17748386
The only reason fab work had to be done was due to shit weight distribution, the G Body is a solid frame
Sure he's going to have to get a ton of SUSPENSION work done, but nothing on the frame if he went with a Regal/Monte Carlo/Cutlass over an El Camino

Other than a G-Body, I would recommend a Lexus SC/Toyota Soarer

anything rwd
welded differential
stretched tires if really low on power

If you slav or anywhere near slav, you really can't go wrong with a Lada because dirt-cheap hammer-fixable RWD with some (but not much) potential in both chassis and engine.
>>
>>17748610
Speaking of:

>it snows a lot in Russia and most Soviet republics
>RWD is unsafe in the snow, FWD is better!
>most soviet vehicles were RWD

What did they mean by this?
>>
>>17747319
buy somebody elses drift slut. don't go butchering the few remaining RWD cars out there.
>>
>>17748621
You see, Ivan, car is made undriveable in snow so that you keep it in garage and it doesn't rust.
But really, widespread studded tires help a lot. [spoiler] They are also the reason why roads in russia suck. [/spoiler]
>>
>>17748621
Soviet cars were based on Fiats from the 50s and 60s all the way up until 1984 when Lada broke the mold with an actual new design (that didnt last as long as a Fiat one)

fwd wasnt even common until the 80s anyway

E36 323, 325 or 328

Reliable as fuck, easy to maintain

>>17748725
Wasn't the Niva originally based off a Fiat platform in early development, and then changed enough so that it was it's own thing eventually?
>>
>>17748610
bimmers are cheaper now

>>17748753
Niva is a Fiat 124 with Soviet body and 4x4

Upset because he doesn't kniw how to drive an sr properly
>>
>>17747319
Any Sr powered s13/14 with a welded diff and a good clutch, e36s are cheap but they are also rust buckets msot times and will probably snap in half. Or a stock GTO I've seen do pretty well. (Im coming from driving a ka s14 making 227whp with a welded diff

buy a volvo 2/7/9
weld diff
have fun

theres a fair bit of support, you can handle track drifting fine, some modded steering knuckles, lowering springs and stiffer shocks. you can even manage with an n/a one, it'll just be tough to hold long slides

t. happy volvo wagon drifter
