ITB's and individual carbs make everything better regardless if it makes big power or not. I've been wanting to do that for a LONG time to something. Never thought about getting serious trying it on a rotary but 2jzge would be fun. It haz dizzy. Dizzy+carbs= rustic cars, cheap thrills.


This says "good first mods to get drifting na"

Mentions not of the rotary engine. Muahahahahaha.

I had to read through some of slidinsilly's other posts to see if he was realistically asking it or was being sarcastic, and I'm still lost.

As you probably already guessed by previous posts, it doesn't need an maf I'm not going to explain it thoroughly but basically carbs are like huge injectors and your right foot is the maf...... the more you push on the gas pedal the more fuel the carbs dump and the more air gets in the mix, magic happens and your car runs and drives

Leave it at low boost though, or you will have head gasket problems between the rotors. (Unless you have a port and polished stage 3 or higher.)

eff that go big or go home! start with donuts. set up some boxes or something, and then try to do figure 8's between them!

2 laps, and you'll be so pissed off that you keep running over the boxes that you'll figure out how the ebrake works and start spinning the rear with handbrake then clutch dumping hahaha
Pissed? I bent the **** out of a ching chong steering wheel, broke the **** out of my drivers side door card or whatever it's called..... I dunno. That pocket thing? Yeah. I kicked that motherfocker off with the fierceness. I've punched my dash, rolled my MANUAL window down to scream my frustration out the window.

Not even gonna lie. Sometimes this **** gets frustrating. No doubt it reminds me of the skate/bmx sessions where i'd do the same line and **** it up over and over and over again. **** drifting. I love it but it makes me be mean to my car. I feel like a grim reaper almost. Like i'm killing it and making it evil every time i touch it with death's icey grasp. I still can't 360.

At about 270* i lose where i'm at, go full retard and forget how to stomp the throttle and grab the steering wheel.

Do you go into reverse trying a 360? I used to work at Masterdrive and at the end of the day, all we'd do was re-arrange the course to mess around on (drift/360s/j-turns into parking spots/etc)

And if you can get the 180 with about 20mph, the j-turn does all the work for you. I go about 45, hold in the clutch, e-brake, turn the wheel a little bit to get my get my 180, and while it's doing the first 180, I just let go of the wheel and let it turn itself to the other side and it whips itself around and just let the clutch out with some gas (I stay in 2nd the whole time)

Lol, it's hard to type out how to do it.

Hmm, that makes me wonder if my NA vert transmission and differential is why I am not hitting boost at lower rpms, I have an S4 13B T.

It seems like my boost is not in sync with my drivetrain, when I'm on the freeway in 5th gear my transmission wants to accelerate higher but it feels like the engine is at the top of it's power band.
