What I'm thinking, Is because if the car is stock, and has no power upgrades (i suggest maybe around 250-350hp for a sylvia) If your just starting out, Its VERY hard... I still cannot drift a stock s15,13,or 14. Try adding maybe a custom tranny and give it abit shorter gear ratios, giving you abit more tourqe at the wheels...
Go buy a Silvia K's and mod that. In the game, Q's are poo. K's is better everywhere stock compared to Q's.
Also, you need to take notice of the drivetrain differences. the WRX is AWD, while the Silvia is RWD. Huge difference there. Your basically trying to compare apples to oranges.

Oh come on, I had a point. My point helped him realize part of what was wrong with his situation. Just because the answer was in his own post doesn't mean anything.
And I definitely had a point about the Q being the lesser of the two S13's.
I also vote that AWD sucks for drifting.
i still dont understand how you get a AWD/4WD into a RWD setting...
yea, Q's arent Turbo'ed like the K's. Just get a stock K, get the oil changed, throw some N3's on it, and go slide with no traction controls.
Dont Forget: More countersteer = more snapback, Less Countersteer = less snapback and smoother drifting
thats for me i suppose

Well, what he should of done is read the guides or at least the stickies.You won't learn a lot from watching videos unless the text is actually readable and makes sense. You stated that you drifted your WRX but what year? if it is around 2003 then your doing it wrong. I tried it already and my STi was fully tuned, including a stock one The majority of the time your going to use AIDS for that Rex.

im not sure to be honest.
The Q isnt a fantastic car to drift, make sure you get weight reduction and then up the power, but dont go over 300bhp, i wouldnt aven go over 260bhp, then make sure all the driver aids are off and have some fun!
And remember to add some comfort or economy tyres, priceless modification...literally its absolutely free!

Its not that i, or most other people cant drift that particular car, its just not as easy as say, the S2000, its too sluggish, and that can only really be solved by one of two things, more power, but that will throw the balance of the car into chaos, or with some extreme bravery, and if youre too brave in that car then your going into the trees...backwards....

More power isn't always the answer. If you can't drift a certain car, why don't you try another one? Many recommended cars like the 240sx, Rx7 series and such are the many types of cars that are used.Adding more power will disrupt the balance, that is true but if you can't handle a stock car for a limited of time during your trial, what makes you think you can handle a high horse power car?Its not that i, or most other people cant drift that particular car, its just not as easy as say, the S2000, its too sluggish, and that can only really be solved by one of two things, more power, but that will throw the balance of the car into chaos, or with some extreme bravery, and if youre too brave in that car then your going into the trees...backwards....
