There are different Types of drift, Power Oversteer, Scandinavian flick, Hand Brake drift and just Loss of Control...

The Type of drift is up to the driver... But Proffessional drifting is being sideways before you take the corner...

Extra points for arm out window...

If your looking out the drivers side or passenger side window to see where the f**k your going for more than a couple of seconds without spinning or overcorrecting... your drifting  

sideways is sideways it just comes down to how long you can hold it like that... (directly proportional to the size of your balls)

Yep!

As soon as the car is sliding, it's "drifting". To what degree depends on how much skill you have and the perfomance of the car.

if you really REALLY want to know and want to buy a kick ass DVD you should get the Speacial edition Best Motoring Drift Bible it is bad ass. Keiichi Tsuchiya is teaching you how to properly drift.
That is the Vid to watch guys.

I mean I think Tsuchiya should know what he is talking about. They call him the "Drift King" because he practically invented it!!

Seriously, this DVD will open your eyes. You will come away after watching it with a whole new understanding. I sure did.

90% of what you think you know about Drift is just plain WRONG.

Invest the $39.00 and get wised up.

PowerSlide = POWER, powerslide is all about power. ohh yeah and if u get sidewayz after entering the concer its a powerslide

Drift = nothing to do with power, all about skill and technique. If you watch drift bible you should be able to get a good idea on how to drift, Most drift requirer the car to be sideway before entering the concer for example when using the handbrake, u pull it before entering the concer and rls it just as u start to turn into the concer

HandBrake and Brake Drift, should be the easies drift to pull off when u start drifting; and basicly explain drifting as the car is already sidewayz (or movin from being straight to sideway) before u enter the concer.

Justin, it's a sad sight back home...but we must forgive them they have never been properly taught in the art of freestyle driving :D

This is drifting...click or click and save...enjoy!

Please tell me this is just an inexperienced "Drifter" getting all excited about losing traction for the first time!

Please DON`T tell me that Danny from "Japanese Motorsport" is the only guy in Australia that can drift!!!!

If you want to click on over to http://www.driftzone.com you can get plenty of footage of Australia's current national drift champion (Darren Appleton, not Danny from JMS) as well as many other excellent Australian drifters in action.

You'll find plenty of drifting, and you might mistake it for powersliding. Of course the difference is usually in your head.

Its a sad shame when some people are so quick to label all Aussies as wanna-be's just because they're not Japanese.

    • Do the following first and get back to us. - Clean and verify your IACV - Verify for vacuum leaks/post MAF leaks. (Pressure test is the best and cheapest way) - Do you have a BOV with stock ecu/MAF? If so, remove it.     
    • Hey all, The skyline I have is stalling when the engine is at normal operating temp.  When starting it while it is cold, it'll run just fine.  I have replaced the battery (bad cell), I have replaced the fuel pump, fuel filter and clean the MAF sensor.  Any other suggestions?
    • Thanks for all the information on this.  I tried ordering the parts from Amayama website and all 3 Solenoids are discontinued and not available.  Does anyone have any other websites to suggest that I could find the parts?   Separate issue-- I will start a new thread, but basically the vehicle is stalling when warmed up.
    • It's unfortunate what Tomei USA has done to Tomei's name in general. I'm very weary of ordering parts from them now. I only order direct from a Japanse source (e.g Nengun). At least their logos are different, so you end up knowing what you have. 
    • Update Issues 5 (plus #4) - 10 After making a claim about issue #4's missing part, DeAgostini Japan sent a whole new issue #4 and it arrived about 2 weeks after that. That was back in early March. It took another 4 weeks to receive issues 5 - 13 though. This update is for issues 5 - 10. Ove the 5 issues the front left suspension and most of the engine have been completed. The quality of the castings and fit of the parts is quite good, it seems better than DeAgostini's BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the Fast & Furious 2 movie, which (to me anyway) doesn't seem to have as tight tolerances or quite as accurate castings.  Each issue has a lot of info about the 1989 - 1993 Skyline range and other Nissan models from that era, but the focus is on the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo and the various racing it did in Japan, Europe (Spa 24hrs) and of course Australia. I've included some text translated with Google Lens in some photos and will add to them if there's anything worth including.
