I ammend you for taking your car to the track to learn, but keep the vids of understeering and spinning out to a minimum. You vid would've looked a little better if you edited alot of the mishaps out.

It's cool to know that more than bay area people rock a superior clutch.

I also highly suggest contacting Luke (Blu808) about a diff.

It'll make the world of diff to you.

i got a welded diff ffrom luke but i didnt have time to install it... i dont think ill have it installed for the next practice either since my side sdeals wont get here till the day before the event....

but bet ti would help... alot lol cuz alot of time the thing would not kick out lol..

Should have took the money from the cusco front strut bar and 3'' exhaust to buy a LSD instead. Good Video otherwise.

Good to see you out on the track.

But um yeah, I would host video possibly later down the road with more practice, otherwise people are going to just hate.

thanks for the comments guys.. i actually dont care what yall say unless its constructive... say i suck say i faill u wont stop me form doing what i love and enjoy.. everyone starts somewhere and i started at the bottom...

atleast im on the track and trying and ya say it suck but u know i did pretty good and linked a couple considering ive never driven on a track, never did any real street drifting, or anyhting i just drive and try to learn my car...

and those of u who said i failed or suck post up some vids of u drifting ...also u could also point out some mistakes and and help me, but whatevr ill learn eventually right cuz i mean every tursday like 10 people including myself get to drift from 5-10pm for 15$ .. :) hopefully ill have another vid next thursday im almost done with my brake upgrade and weldloc install..

get out in the rain, get a feel for countersteer. try a little more feint/weight transfer. clutch kick that sonofabitch. try everything humanly possible to initiate, then stick with that works and what you like.

as for the video, props to you for posting it man. you need to stay in the higher RPMs.

lol thanks again for all the comments lol.. i use a s14 seat, which helped alot compared the the leather seat... other than stock setup with electric seat belts and all...

yea a couple time i abandoned the drift because i was afraid of either walls, that big tire, or the downhill gass edge lol..

ill post a new vid up after thursday.. hopefully i do alot better if i get the welded diff in...
