Thanks Elliott.

i'll give you anything you want if you can tell me how to attain an Subaru coupe from 2007 i thought once they started releasing wrx's in the us, that the coupe was no longer offered, only hatchback or sedan....

Ok, to be actually helpful...attain full custom suspension ,VCD, customizable diffs, and comfort hards front and rear.

Set vcd to 10/90 split, set all parameters on front diff to 5, and lower the car to about 20, front camber to 2-2.5, and rear to 0-.5. change rear toe to .1-.0.0. f/r anti-roll to 5 or 6. once all this is finished get a feel for the car by trying to drift it, then adjust spring rates and shocks accordingly.


btw.. im fairly sure this formula can apply to just about any awd-4wd car save for the very low-powered ones, you'll notice i didn't provide any info about pwr upgrades(it's because for a car pushin 250+HP, true drifters don't really need too much more power.) you can always lighten the car though...

Lock the rear diff,
Front diff at 5, 40 and 10.
Center diff 90% biased to the rear

Stiffen the springs and rear arb abit, add alittle toe out and camber on the front to improve turn in and grip while sliding.
Increase the read braking force so the car overstates on the brakes

To be honest though, you would be much better off starting with a rwd and learn drifting properly rather than gorified power-sliding with an AWD.

I believe he is trying to drift so lock the Front diff and apply those setting to rear

Oh dear...

Yeah, that will help if you want endless amounts of understeer...
Locking the rear diff. will allow both wheels to travel at the same speed, CONSTANTLY!

Run the front diff at 5/5/5, rear diff at 60/60/60 with vdc set at 10/90 and have fun.
