i'll admit, i'm a noob to drifting on gt4. i've got the basics down pretty much, but i'm having trouble holding my drifts for a long time. i'm currently using the settings posted in the depot for the s14 silvia. i don't know if i just need more practice, or if i'm doing something wrong. if anyone could give me some tips i'd appreciate it. thanks...

the only thing better than a little self-promotion is when someone else does it for you :sly:

just keep the input smooth, turn off the aids, and keep the same tire compound front and back. If you have the basics (which you claim), then the rest will come with more practicing.

A big thing is learning how to limit your inputs. To hold long drifts, it is crucial that you dont give the car any more countersteer than is necessary. Full lock drifts that were common in GT3 do not work well in GT4 for lengthy drifts.

On the edge of that c/s too, you need early and much countesteer. Just enough so that you won't get much angle but just less to prevent the famous "snap back" of the car; suddenly shooting to the directions towards you were countesteering to; the snap back. Ok?
 
I started drifting in GT3 so I had some of the basics down good... I noticed that if you hold the analog or D-pad all the way over or down that, My car would SPIN OUT LIKE CRAZY!!... so what I figured is that just taping the analog over and over, not holding it, would help my drifts be much more smooth... :sly: And hey! it actually worked so I'm proud... yea proud.. try that
hopefully I din't just repeat someone... lol :crazy:
 
hmmm i have an idea that would make it even easier for you try using the anolouge stick for your steering in-put i find it much more precise and incremental 👍 👍
 
Try using a higher horsepower car. I'm not saying a viper or anything, but Falken FC, Supra, Chrysler 300, or FD are all good horsepower cars. Going with something higher horsepower might help you learn faster, but it might be a bad idea to skip right to it, but it's worth a shot. The cars I drift with are typically 400-700 HP, with 75% of them in the 400-475 HP range.

I like power :crazy:
 
yea i am a newb at drifting but i got my basics down when i was playing tokyo extreme raceing zero, yea i know totaly diffrent from gt, but hey it was a start but it taught me basics, and i learned alot of techniques, and its hard to drift in that game, so when i drift in gt3 its pretty good, so just practice and try diffrent things,

LOL TXR0 was so hard to drift in, but man I loved that game, TXR3 was awesome too, and it was only, like, $20 at Wal-Mart.
