ya the rotary will peel out but it wont hold unless u have a turbo. always slows down and catches grip, using a break or not. iv attempted such activities on dry pavement when i first got my 7.

I've done 1 wheel stoped burnouts in my FB with an open diff. dug a pit in the asphalt about an inch deep. rubber all over my buddys 323. it was awsome. You just gotta be really light on the brake and keep the RPM's abouve 4500 it will sit and peel.

ckykid, do you have camber adjusters F/R? or what? You car is low and camber looks ok (tires perpendicular to the asphalt).

I used to be 240 fanboy (uhh, i mean s13), but rx7 was always my sweetheart. 240 took some damage, I got paid, and rebuilt the TII. 240 was a trooper tho, that car took a beating ka24e powa!
Used to 'drift' teh 240 when i worked 3-8am at fedex in portand! Was a fun car none the less... Good riddence tho, sold it to a friend, he was tboned and got paid out too! he bought another 240 tho.

its because 240's are super easy to drift. and the community is huge with lots of technical and aftermarket support.
i once heard doug at up garage say rx7's are just like their owners. broke.
people who own 240's usually have the money to support them

i have megan coils. fronts have a camber adjuster. im running slight positive camber up front only because my tires in front are horribly camber worn and the rim grinds against the collar on the coil because the sizing is too beast with it cambered out negative. waiting to get new tires and five mil spacers to negative it out. rear is running close to 5 degrees negative camber.

lol every single one of my friends drift 240's.
the only problem i have with 240's is that they are everywhere these days. dumbass kids are buying and ricing them instead of drifting and making them clean or aggressive.
most kids just make them gay.

Well your damn right. After I sold mine to my friend, He put a crystal shift ****(door ****) as a shifter, and found a louie vatton (sp?) purse and made it a shift boot! Piped his cold air intake into the front bumper, but it fell off and he ran over filter and the entire AFM. GAY! All kidding aside, he might be.

Your camber looked pretty zero'd in the pics! I need rear camber adjustment.
