How do you drift this S15???

[inuakki]

Up until now, I've mainly been drifting my Nissan Z34 and my Viper. However I decided I might as well try out the Nissan Silvia S15 (the one from the dealership) since people always seem to recommend the S15 or the S13 and such.
That said, I looked around for some setup suggestions and with that, as well as my own additions, I added the race modifications and all the best parts. Apart from that, I tried tuning it my way which didn't produce very good results, then I tried using a tune I found for it which also didn't do much for me.
So seeing as this is such a popular car, I was hoping someone could provide a setup that works or give me any tips on drifting this car.

That's the setup which I've seen and tried. Is that the one you use? And if so, do you have any recommendations as far as what tracks to drift on or just overall tips?

I use the e-brake to initiate with the s15. Even fully modded it lacks the torque of other cars. I use it stock settings except -10 on the ride heights, LSD Initial Torque at 60, and shortened the gearing just a couple notches. 3rd gear slides until the front tires warm up and then it's 4th gear all day long. Tsukuba Circuit is really the best track you can use to try out your drift cars.

Also what tires are you using? Comfort Hards are the best IMO just because they last longer, hold heat longer, more consistant.

I generally use comfort hards, however the setup I was following for this car said to use comfort softs so I'm trying those out atm.

From what I have read, try to keep the hp around 400 or under.
