Exclamation Serious Question.....

How well would a S14 with a stock KA drift (with decent suspension mods)?

I'd really like to get a S14 and slap a SR in it, but in all reality, I don't have the money for it. I'd like to get back into Auto-X'ing, and even try drifting. Just wondering if it's worth trying.

Charles

S14s seem to have much better grip and turn in than s13s, just me driving both in the rain, drivign both with sr's.

Coilovers on a 14 make lots of fun .
coilovers, subframe spacers, tc rods, lsd. and a KA240 will have no problems being competitive at either autox or drift.
