yes u can drift almost any car. you can keep any rwd car with decent power to stay in drifts. yes you will hurt something, drifting will cause wear on your parts but thats already a given. your ego will get killed when you try to drift and not pull it off or end up hitting something.

lol thank you fast and the furious.....

anyway... you're not going to be able to drift without a lsd... you can throw your rear around and power slide but you wont be able to hold long controlled drifts with an open end differential, sorry.

As a matter of fact, it happens more often and with less effort, sometimes without you even noticing!

All this LSD talk.....ya'll need to jump on the train and get a pumpkin w/ lsd and be happy. I don't have LSD and it sucks and no you can't drift i've tried i promise.

If you have a Z without LSD...be happy you have a Z but be pissed you can't be a "fo real fast and the furious 3 drifter son"

well you can always get a better LSD than the stock one, it would be a good upgrade, then do some tokyo drifting in a parking garage, lol I cant wait to see the 350z in action

Word of the forum tells me Nismo is good, the only thing you might notice is a change in sound i believe, Rick Ngueyen's has a bad *** 350z made for the track and with all his mods he chose the NISMO LSD.....http://www.jtuned.com/content/templa...d=336&zoneid=2
