Wedssport Celica. + Hello to all!

[FussyFez]

Just picked one up in the UCD, not a great drifter out of the box, but it looks so lairy i couldnt resist. Will get some pics up tomorrow, but i was wondering if anyone else has given it a go and found a decent setup. I've just slapped on some more camber and a mid-range turbo plus oil change/engine rebuild/rigidity refresh and stiffened the rear diff and it slides quite nicely with comfort softs (my main drift tyre)

Also, Hello!

Ive been lurking for a while and there does seem to be some excellent advice inbetween the usual forum madness so i thought id sign up and have some input.
Ive got countless drift machines from S body nissans to RX7s new and old to carltons to a 240 GLT.

Ill drift anything with power going to the rear, or have a sodding good try atleast.

I understand where everyone is coming from (from both sides) regarding 4WD drifting, and i do enjoy chucking comfort hards on the escort cossie and having a slide, but its not 'drifting' guys n gals, it does look mighty impressive when executed correctly with full on backwards entries, smoke pouring from all 4 tyres scrabbling for grip.

Anyways, Happy sliding everyone.👍

Is it RWD? Those celicas came stock FWD and if it was racing converted they usually make em AWD...

the wedssports Celica is RWD. its a gt300 car. i drifted it in gtpsp but not in gt5 yet.

Indeed its RWD, and as stated above it was made for the GT300. According to its blurb, its running supra running gear and double wish bones front and rear.

Its a bit too grippy with not enough power, hard work linking drifts and keeping long ones going, but im sure with the right tyres and setup it would be excellent.

Going to give it a shot with comfort hards, i dont tend to get on with them as they usualy lack the grip i like, but i reckon with this beast they'll be perfect.

Not sorted any pics yet as im lazy.
