IN my experience the 32 is just easier to slide lol, mind you anything is easier then the ae86 i drive now, i guess people use 32's more because, they're cheaper, more of them, more options in parts like body kits cos u know a kits inportant to drift with lol, but out of all the cars ive driven my top 3 easiest was, r32, r31 and S13 but even in saying that, it all depends on the setup and the type of driver you are.

Dunno if that helps but yeh.

what i dont get is how people dont drift them due to size and weight issues - its weird if the japanese think this aswell as they absolutely love cefiros, jzx100 etc etc

if a big old cefiro family car can slide well why not an r33...

btw great thread keep updating with pics/ vids

What about the JMS R33 drifter that became Mark Phillips ppg then martini drift car? That car was mental. I remember the first time i went to a drift event at Mallala I saw that 33 tearing up the main straight. That car was awsome

they were good times and dont forget port gawler lol

Ceffies and Jxz100s are both smaller and lighter than an R33.

The 33 does has plenty of potential though as shown by the pics/vids above

A chaser lighter than a 33..hmmmm.

lol all you guys that have experienced all the different chassis and models are lucky...

i ha ve to say r33 is easy to drift but thats comparing to my old cars, a vx with a spool and a volvo 360 glt..... the 33 was amazing haha

would love to try an s chassis if what everyone says is true..

i think the long wheel base makes it more fun

, My r33 is built for drifting, its got all the basics, 2-way diff, pinapples, 255kws,9point cusco saftey 21 cage, big fat rims 18x10's with phat offset..

I think r33's are good for drifting, its the way you drift, your style.

here are some videos of me drifting at winton.

and some photos

    • Any number of different ways. Have the coils draw sufficient current to provide contact wetting. Use different contacts in the switch, either by material or design, better suited to the low current drawn by a relay coil. Etc.
    • Hmm, how does the R34 manage to have headlight relays then without getting excessive carbon buildup on the headlight switch contacts?
    • Not R7R. Meant to type R&R, obviously enough.
    • Bugger "making it look stock". I put one conventional internally fused Hella relay behind each globe. I just pulled the plugs off the back of the globes and built new loom segments with male and female plug parts to match up to the original loom and the globe, and used the original power wires to each globe coming from the switch through the original loom plug to trigger the relays. Ran a big fat (also separately fused) power wire across the front of the car to feed all the relays. It's as ugly as f**k, but it is wedged down between the headlight and battery on the RHS and the airbox and headlight on the LHS, and no-one ever looks in my engine bay, and on the odd occasion that they do I simply give no f**ks for what they think. Fully reversible - not that you'd ever want to. For f**k's sake. It's a Skyline. They made million of the bloody things. We've been crashing them into roadside furniture for 30 years now. There is a negative side effect to putting relays on the headlights. The coil current is too little to properly clean the contacts in the switches and they get blacked up and you have to open them up every couple of years and clean them manually. I have 25 years of experience on this point.
    • I was poking through the R34 wiring diagrams vs R33 and noticed that the R34 has proper headlight relays while the R33 is like the R32 and sends full headlight power through the headlight switch. I'm not afraid of wiring but I really would like to do this in a way that looks OEM (clipping into open positions on the OEM relay box) and also unlike the factory wiring which interlocks the high beam and low beam on the halogen series 1 GTR headlights I want to make it such that turning on the high beams keeps the low beams on as well. Any advice on how to locate the specific connectors + crimp terminals + relays I need? I was thinking one NO relay for low beams and another for combined high + low running off the factory high beam headlight connector. I don't really want to splice into a crusty old probably discontinued factory harness so fully reversible is my goal here.
