Can a stock 240SX drift?

[Driftingmonkey]

? I know it's better to have mods. if it's a 5spd can it drift stock?

(in the words of captain planet) The power is yours!

You can drift in pretty much any car. It matters on the driver and him/her being used to their car. Yeah, it's easier if you put mods, but you can still drift in a stock car.

As Tsuchiya said,the Miata is one of the few cars that can do full throtle drifts on the last turn at Tsukuba.Any vehicle that is RWD can be drifted.

Well yeah. Just keep in mind that older Miatas don't have LSD.

Why not.It may not be the prettiest thing,but it can be done.Ever watch any of the Best Motoring races at Tsukuba? Tsuchiya is known to start drifting the cars after the race,these cars are almost always stock.

YES a stock 240sx can drift. Probably won't be too smooth. It is always good to learn to drift on what ever car you'll be using iit's stock configuration so you'll know just what you're dealing with..

who cares if a stock 240 can drift. just because you buy one doesn't mean you can. The question is, "Can you drift?"

yea if you have the vlsd that came stock, sure you can but your gonna break something eventually

[nrgdrft]

u need no vlsd to drft i have a pretty basic 95 240 with only intake,oilcooler and exhaust and i proceed to drift corners very nice most of the time. how long u been drifting for i wonder. i have for almost a year and my 240 has only sustained body damage and minimal engine problems (battery pos. cable being melted)

[z33Drifter]

nrgdrft- did your car come stock with vlsd? if you dont have lsd it really aint a drift its most likely a power slide
