ok i have seen 2 now i need one... im gona go out and see if i can NOT die.



im booooored

 

its not drifting

 

Brandon and Matt did RWD conversions, and Ill be damned before I go playing in dirt with my max, Ive washed it 4 times this week, I have a problem

 

Anyone know how long it took'em to do the whole thing, woulda taken meee yeaars, and years alone to get the money.

 

Lets just say It wasn't cheap huh!

 

Lol....guys....please tell me you know that N34JZ was kidding....

Anyways drifting any car is pretty darn easy, the e-brake is your friend...

 

but you cant drift a fwd vehicle.... unless you do it in reverse heh, but you can a$$ wag it

 

 

stock 4th gen wheels

 

btw matts sig pic is god

 

Duud, shh.. i dont want all the emails asking me how i did it, you werent supposed to tell anyone.

Hey it might not be real drifting, but its half assed right? E-brake = teh fun. Actually i was just down at the beach yesterday and had some more fun in the sand lol, its addicting. my tires are yellow right now.
but cmon, its the cool thing to do guys!

 

speaking of which, I once saw a turbo in Brandons engine bay.
please send all questions here
thank you

 

that's so mean..

 

yep sure are

would you rather me have these

 

thats the second time man....the second time you did that!!!

 

LOL!! did i miss something, where was the first?! jerk!

 

yeah it was another time back in some pointless thread....he put "email all questions here" and put my email addy as the link! thankfully no one falls for it though...or at least they didn't back then!

 

I remember that, it was a turbo thread too with like 10 newbies suscribed ..lol, man I was in a sarcastic mood today.

 

LOL well i already got one IM about it hahahahahah

 

Well, Brandon... We'll be sure to send no less than 10 newbies/week your way! Field all the questions, and filter all garbage to Matt. I'm sure HE will appreciate your efforts.

 

you mean you were lying haha

 

why not? If you let up on the gas (tap the brake if you need to) and turn, then get back on the gas, you oversteer and can drift. The idea is the same as rwd: you break the rear loose. This is done by transfering weight forward, turning the wheel a lil so the front bites but the rear doesn't, then get back on the gas to even the weight out and prevent further oversteer (of course, you countersteer like rwd).
I've done this before in my Altima several times when autox'ing and I was told you can do it at ButtonWillow/WillowSprings/Streets, which's high speed tracks. I personally don't believe it's the quickest way around corners. I don't like the idea of losing traction, but it's fun and scary.

Ah..The memories..Reminds me of my first drive in my Max; before I knew what a beast it was...My dad brought it to me at work so I could drive it home. It was rainy. I took the long way home through the country. Hit the pedal as I left town, took a slick corner at about 35 and power slid like a rally car. Of course, being a relatively new driver, I tried to correct it and just about ditched the car. But still, it was a wonderful experience.

 

don't worry.. I get enough crap questions as it is just because I'm a moderator (and post *****).. then when I say things about my turbo or NAWS setup or RWD conversion, the newbies just go crazy and never stop emailing me..
grrrr

 

btw... I was the FIRST one to post that in my sig pic.. all the rest are imitators.
(Actually PIONEER was, but he just locked all 4 corners and cut the wheel on gravel, and it was a 5th gen)..

but you get the point.. anyone else is just an imitator.

Also.. photo credits go to Justin McBee. he's the one I was trying to run over.

 

you can't drift a FWD vehicle.

 

you can't let things go either, can you?
just move on man. it's a pointless arguement and you're going to turn this thread into a flame war.. then I'll have to lock/delete it and beat you down.

 

i wasnt trying to argue, thats why i only replied with the original post.

 

so im a biter, what can i say.

where would NGthings car be today if he didnt have people to copy from, right?

 

hehe true... true.. he did almost run me over.. that's when I decided any other drift shots I'd start doing with a llooonnnggg lense from a distance rather than hanging off the bumper

btw.. I have ton's more.. we spent about 1/2 an hour getting matt to pitch it this way and that... and guess what.. I've drifted my max too!! jeez.. imagine you can slide the *** on a FWD car... granted you can't power through it and make the really cool exit you can with a RWD car but its kinda neat effect... hehe

 

and we can expect these pics to show up when?

 

sometime between now and never. they're property of Justin, and I haven't even been able to squeeze them out of him! they were taken almost a year ago at that!

 

blah oh well

 

thank you matt.. and yes they are my "property" so lets not catch any of you ******* using them to try to sell your car on ebay ... lol..

actually I'll probably get them scanned (finally!!) this summer sometime... its been pretty busy lately... I'm working on getting a new film scanner that should make it a easier/cleaner job....

 

drifting in the dirt is weak! i'll post some pics of my car sideways at autox. they're not as good cause they're far away, but you can see the tires full cut!

 

You're my hero. please do that. You will have the respect of ricers everywhere.

LOLOLOLOL Y is there 4 pages of this crap LOL.. i never looked at after i posted it !! lol.. this is great!

-YOU CAN DRIFT WITH A MAX- you just have to get the back out very far but after you do that you dont go for long.. when counter stearing you CANT let the front wheels spin.. you have to roll em'.. i do it every time it rains.. im getting better

i wana get some to take a pic of me wraping my max around a tree.. that would be the greatest sig ever....

 

yeah its weird, cheezer threads always end up being like 4-5 pages and ussually start with one sentance from chris, lol

btw are you going to the meet on the ninth? 115+ maximas
