ya.. haha im not fully sick.. i heel and toe everywher why not practice a technique that saves ur box and clutch.. better for balance too :nyaanyaa:

but anyway.. i like to have my legs straightish not fully but to a point if u catch my drift :lol: that was very tempting.

i like the weight of the sil.. but the steering is numb compared to the GTR.. :)

steering numb!!! steering should be shit loads better, since you only have half an engine up front.

sayin i havent slide in a silvia, i have been sliding in my brother SR20 laurel. Love the car and the engine. just the only thing is they just dont scream and complain enough, they sound to relaxed in there rev range....sr's are great to slide though. more initial spinning force then the rb20.

numb as in u need to turn the wheel more get lck stops.. with the GTR it was around one full turn wher as the 180 is like 1.7turns.. kinda shitty lol.

that and steering is soft and not as responsive.. the GTR was more planted..

my 180sx is also squatting a lil too much.. stupid teins..

ahh ok, thats because you have more lock in your 180...the steering circles in the r32's is teh gayness, but yeah i get yah, you'll get used to it.

lol man i started sliding on stock shocks...and stock sway bars, now thats interesting.

i have the N1's in atm...and the a street spec, so still no stiff enough for a drifting life, but go for the occasion that i do it now....but i need the hicas gone and some pineapples and thicker rear sway bar...the 17mm back there aint cutting it.

I sit in close. Partly because I'm not fully-sik. Partly because I'm 5'6 and can't reach the pedals...

I also sit reasonably close (not in view of the back window or at a level less than horizontal to the windows), I do this because I value control of the car and practical reach of the pedals....it does however lose me rep points and make me look less like a wannabe african american gangsta.....so unfortunate, it does look fulleh hektic when you're strechted right out.

damn, see i sit with the my seat as far back as it can go, and yet i still feel to close to the wheel, and im only around 6 foot :P

oh and hai :no:

Thats pretty bad dude.

mudcrab why are you heel and toeing when thats a racing technique....drifting aint racing so no need to do it.

Im sure most car gearboxs and clutches can handle the abuse, unless you have a piss weak box and a underrated clutch for the power your running and the traction your road tyres are producing. I doubt your using soft semi slicks or full slicks on your street car.

meh, why not heel-toe? It has no real downsides and it's better for general components of the car, new or not. Primarily though it helps prevent unnecessary wheel spin/lock or car imbalance and generally feels better (inertia wise) than the engine reving out to slow the car. Practice for track days is only an additional benifit. As for the "drifiting isn't racing" debate...well, we've already had a thread on that.
