View Full Version : My <3 for RWD...
It all began with the Oldsmobile Delta88... MASSIVE V8 drift machine, let me tell you. No not really, but it was my first RWD car...
After that was the BMW... 1985 325E. All i knew that when it rained it was happy time. Appartment complexes were fun. All of the short quick sharp turns until I bumped a curb and scare the poo out of my passenger. I didn't even know what drifting was...
I took a small break from RWD and got an Integra. After that I moved along to the STi which I LOVE but in a different way than RWD...
I couldn't take the seperation from RWD so I picked up a 93 240SX SE and it all began. At this point I knew what drifting was. Picked up an LSD... I'm still not great at drifting but I have to say its fun as hell :-D.
What got you into RWD and drifting?

I really am not sure what or how i got into drifting. It seemed like one day i was into integras and civics and then bam....My e46 was my first RWD car. I loved it and have loved BMW's ever since. I have loved 240's ever since i was reading one of the first issues of turbo mag. They were talking about building a budget car and it was a 240 with an sr. This was YEARS ago.......Havnt looked back since

AHHHH!!! This brings back memories....
It began with an '85 GSL-SE RX-7... good times. It was my first manual car and my first rwd. I learned sooo much stuff from that car... (like overcorrection)... but in any case, I sold it and bought a '90 240sx se. Its a good car, but it's under construction... for now....

I actually started with a 240sx and ended up with a 240sx.
Parents are going NUTS over me keeping the car, however.
They must've thought it's just a phase ;)
THINK AGAIN! lol

I started with a 94 automatic civic :)
I totalled that NOT RACING OR BEING STUPID. Bought my s13 in March 04'. Only thing is that I haven't taken advantage of RWD yet, as I have an auto.
Only thing left for my 5sp swap is flywheel bolts, clutch setup, and lower 5sp harness :):):):)

I was into Mustangs for years before I fell in the 240sx group. But being 18 with a new Mustang GT and a 5speed was alot of fun.
Too bad I think it's slow as balls now.

Yeah it was compared to my first car. But the feeling of being fast is much different than actually being fast.
