you dont need a wing for drifting wings add downforce adding traction traction is bad for drifting ie wings are bad for drifting
if you want a wing than pick out one you like beacuse it dosent matter

Last time I checked, traction is great for drifting.

As for wings that are good for drifting, APC wings are off the chain. Even the big drifters are sponsored by APC. I'm guessing that you didn't get the memo.

Traction = Predictability

wings pull in hoes as well. You are guaranteed to have a few females breaking thier necks on your vehicle when they see how big of a wing you have.

Tuners like to comment on the look as well.

What I think they are trying to say DR. is that you don't really need a wing. Leave the wings to the honduh boys.

there is no good wing for drifting because no wing will improve your drift

is the KA in your 240 blown there is also no point to tossong a good motor for one that has been in a junkyard in japan for god know how long

Steps for the drifter
1. get your car
2. drive your car and learn how to control it
3. modify the thing as shit breaks

i know someone will bring up thta i did not do this but i had a car where EVERYTHING was already broken (blown motor and over 250,000 on the chassis with nothing except tie rods replaced) so i had to start at step 3

Ok but for some reason taniguchi's S15, Kazama's s15, drifter X, and XL's S13s ,koguchi's S13, yamashita's 350z, and most others have wings? well fuck i guess the pro's dont even know whats good for drifting. downforce=taction which is good for drifting. and the main Q was has anyone delt with ARD performance??

Your kinda quick to call people names over the internet. A calm reply is often the better choice.

As for ADR Performance, never heard of them. 1500 for an SR is too cheap though. Did they say what that includes? Does the motor have a complete, uncut harness, ecu, ignitor, maf, etc?

im sure that 1500 is just engine tranny, as he stated clip is 3400, that is 1900 more, im sure they are not charging 1900 more for the misc parts on a clip and the shell.

OH IM SORRY, and ecu. engine tranny and ecu, no need to mention that it has a turbo. ive never seen an engine tranny package that didnt have a turbo on it, turbo is gaurenteed, but its not gaurenteed to work.

so ur tellin me that for that price they give you a trans, and an auto trans. thats so nice of them.

Yeah wow thats awesome I just got done with my SR20det swap and i got the motor out of ARD performance, the help there is great the people are really nice and the motor was in pretty good condition, i mean your probly going to upgrade anyways but it was still in nice condition the turbo was in great shape the cam wasnt dried out and i had paid a little over 2200 for mine cuz they had less motors at the time but im sure the same quality is going to be in these ones so id say go for it and ask to consult with FRANK thats who i talked to and he was a real good help. Also i have a question where can i get an oil filter for the sr20, i found a website a while ago that had em but i lost it unfortunately but i wana buy like 10 of em sumwhere and i have no idea where to find em, thanks alot and goodl uck with your motor.

Cause its an rb25, and everyone wants and sr these days. rb25's are just hard to put into a 240 without dropping alot of money and spending alot of time modding one it. The demand for rb25's isn't that high.
