[drift a 944]

hahaha thank you for the comments guys.

the guy with the umbrella decided to duck tape it to his head because it was close to 100 degrees out!!!! The video was from about a month ago, in central Florida. ==HOT!


Glad to get some suggestions and compliments.

thanks - looks like fun - reminds me of when i was a kid - we used to do that a lot

i saw the car twitching and bouncing in the suspension - getting rid of the rubber bushings will help a lot - i'd also put in some really stiff rear springs and a big rear sway bar - that should help put the rear under a more controlled power oversteer with a lot less of the snap back - but, it will be a mess to drive anywhere else - looks like it was running out of power too - maybe smaller rear tires?

lincoln driver looked pretty good - nice control - not a lot of overcorrection

Getting rid of the soft rubber bushings would be nice but i've yet to come across anything other than oem.... any clues on where to find some?
Same goes with rear suspension parts. Right now the only thing ive done with the rear is adjust the trailing arms down and install Bilstien heavy duty shocks, but i would love to find a rear coilover kit or perhaps stiffer tortion bar springs, but i have not found any yet.
If you could point me in a direction to find some that would be great!!

Dude sweet video and sweet pics, Its cool to see some one doing something different, Also its cool to see someone Drive their car HARD.

I say, Next mods should be a 4.11 gear set from powerhouse, It will help keep your RPM's up in the power band and keep those tires spinning, problem is a set goes for $800.

You also might wanna try to run a better cam.

Agian good stuff.

Thanks! Now that this car is not my daily driver any more I feel like I dont have to hold back as much when Im out on the track.
The 4.11 gears would be really cool, I just cant afford them for a lonnng time.
Also, by cam do you mean camera or camshaft? lol


...because I need a new both.

i like the pics, but i have question, ive noticed on your 944 that the lights are blacked out, looks real nice, how did you do that?

Thanks Im glad you like them!
Search ebay for "VHT Nite Shades" ...its basically a transparent black spray paint that allows light to shine through nicely.

I could have made them a bit lighter and gotten more of a "smoked" look, but I decided to just make them totally black.



thanks again guys for the comments!
