Totally can't. Pretty much impossible to drift an Rx7.


This pic is just a photoshop since I want to drift them soooo bad but can't.


Get Coilovers, dtss elim, tires, and experience.
Done.

No correction An fc can't drift like 240's, they drift better lol. No seriously an fc is way more difficult to slide than a 240, get some coilovers,dtss, couple sets of wheels with tires and a bucket seat, and practice and practice some more.

Aparently those kids didn't watch tokyo drift.

350z's, rx8, rx7, ae86, EVO, chaser.

If it's rwd, it can drift.

Tell your friends to quit being riceboiz.

Whatever it is they like, do the opposite.
