Default drifting, base vs. enthusiast

ok i have a base model z which in turn has the open diff. i can drift my car i love drifting, i am about to purchase a 240 and do an sr20 swap just because i dont want to abuse my z anymore. anyway i have been drifting for a while and i enter in competitions . the other day i was in my girls car which is an 04 enthusiast with limited slip and she gave me this look while i was turning around at a dead end circle in a neighborhood . i did what i always do i was doing like 12 mph i put it in 2nd clutch kicked it and instead of just getting it sideways and me controlling it out of the circle, we did 2 complete circles. of course i was calm and it did not scare me at all it just caught me by surprise. i controlled it easy throughout the loops and left . so i guess limited slip really does make a big difference huh?

yea the stock lsd sucks... after the first year it started slipping on me. The only way i know to make it last longer is to swap out diff fluid every time you go drifting.
