Just a question if anybody knows can vl's be built to drift as i'm not a import fan, a driftable vl would be crazy? can it be done, do u know anyone?

I remember seeing a signature from one of the forum members (sorry, don't know who) that had a link to a picture of their car being drifted hard. i reckon they can match the best of em in drifting lol

lol I got a n/a calais not good enough but still gets out there. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Im almost certain any car can be built to drift (or in some cases, be DRIVEN TO DRIFT haha aiight ask my homies... and im not just talkin lame ass driver induced power oversteer coming out of shopping centre carpark, im talking comin into roundabouts at 70kph pointing 45degrees in the wrong direction and then proceeding to LAP the roundabout at a consistant acute angle and the drift track goes on.. :P JVL87 can certify such claims. PVL087 will be bitten by the bug soon aswell Bring on the summer rain Ollie Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

yet to see a commodore drift properly... people have funny ideas of what drifting actually is. im sure you could setup a vl to do it if you really wanted to...

Yeah you can, so I been told, spoke to a guy that is in the drift club, he said when it was ready(my heap of crap) to bring it out one weekend. pretty much any RWD car can, just needs to be set up properly.

what kinda set up would I need...? it's been lowered with new shocks and springs.. getting stut braces and gear, new ball joints ect what else would help?

My car hangs beautifully!! Don't have the power to drift but it is sooo controllable in a slide (not power oversteer) i can't wait to get my new engine going to try out abit of drift action Has a r33 skyline rear end and handles very much like a skyline now! Prob more work than any1 would want to do to make their car drift well, but hey. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

well once i get a bit more power i wanna give it ago at one of the wet skid pan days the import boys have ...... i need stiffer suspension atm ...

Ollie can drift a 35rwhp ke70 corolla in the wet. and yes I know what drift is What remains to be seen is whether he can do the same in his VL which should arrive shortly I'm putting money on him being able to. Quite well Might have to set up a road block and some digi cams one time, get the evidence up here Actually that's pretty naughty. Jay Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Anything can slide on a wet and greasy surface. Drifting relies heavily on your suspension setup.. You would need adjustable strut tops to get some chronic camber happening and some good shocks n springs.

I got a an old front wheel drive honda going pretty good. maccas trays under the rear wheels with handbrake on and let her rip..........sweet

NA VL auto - lock to lock for a few hundred metres. It helps if you don't care about the car too. Stuffed shocks help even more. Power steering sucks anus, can't keep up with the wheels. Summer rain rules!

Just get yourself a mini-spool. Thats all u need!

When i got really pissed off at someone who kicked stones up and nearly broke my windscreen i drifted my car infront of them and she held up beutifully. Its got the adjustable bar etc and she loves to drift. I have about 20 witnesses that can vouch that a chick can drift a VL Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

lol sweet, I had some one stone chip my car ! ain't happy at all..

I can get my Calais to drift, but nothing like I can in my mates Supra. It helps if you have IRS and a LOT of camber.

id give driftin a go, i need a LSD first..
