First up hello, kinda new too the forums.

Im looking too turn my first car into a lovely drift pig, now before people start shooting me down and thinking my first car is a Camry or something shit like that, I own a 1991 R32 Gtst fresh import from the land of the rising sun.

I got my 'your a hoon now' card before the new laws and have grown up on Bikes, I didnt want something slow and shit after spending my days on a R6 so a Pretty black 2 door Skyline was my 2nd choice (love MK 4 Supras but lack the cash)

The car isn't really modded yet, Currently a cat back 3" system (Full JJR Hyperflow 3" in the cards hsdance.gif ), standard intercooler (again I getting a New intercooler. other than that its the normal Turbo Smart blowoff valve, Pod filter with a custom air box, Top front Strut, both front and back lower struts...and my pride and joy, a Nismo 2 way LSD bowrofl.gif.

other than that she is all standard, other than what I have plus my parts in waiting what should me wallet be looking at next?..apart from more rear tires.

I have been informed that a HKS 2530 turbo would be a great mod for my car since the stardard turbos run out of huff after a while, I'm chasing around 200 rwkw and would rather not have too get into new internals/or other large mods like that.

Hey man,

My 32 to me has ben perfect to learn in. Its a pretty basic 'setup', it has no trouble around qr and loves archy/parklands.

its got kyb coil overs, a npc clutch, a shimmed diff, rear camber arms, a cooler, exhaust, 12psi and a few other odds and ends.

It made like 180rwkw@ 12psi. it destroys 3rd easily and is extremely reliable. To learn in i cant think of a better way to start, your not spoiled with alot of power so you have to learn ways to make do with what you have. Then later on when you have more cash or experieece what ever you step up the power abit and make more smoke/makes u faster/pulls more sluts cuz ur baking!!!

Keep it simple + reliable and dont worry about all the setup stuff, just get out there and have fun and fix/upgrade things as you start to feel there holding you back!

Should have put in there that Im als running a Stage 2 Clutch, and thats its running standard boost.

Shes good in 2nd, 3rd in the wet and 1st is freaking usless due too the fact it is sooo low.

I started power sliding my parents falcon the second I could drive alone but due too the shit hand brake (under dash mounted one) i could never really 'drift'.

after getting this car I started slow and small but can link a few corners on the shit roads round here. having a car that has all the right bits to drift helps alot.

Not 100% sure on the power its making being a Jap Spec one, but once the new gear is bolted on a dyno is pretty certain, along with 10 PSI lol.
