drifting in FWD (question inside)
im not worried about how to drift in my honda. in fact nothing is really worrying me at all, just lately ive been noticing that the back end likes to slide around a bit when im making right hand turns, especially if the turn is downhill. i have sprint performance springs, kyb gr2 shocks, 16inch gunmetal koseis, and yokohama tires. both rear tires have about the wear on them. i do have bad camber, but not half as bad as it was before. my alignment pulls to the right so im guessing that may have something to do with it. but 1) what would cause the back end to kick out like that? and 2) why does it only do it on right hand turns? btw the car is an 88 crx si. its not a true drift, just more or less a 6-7ft slide sideways. at first it was unexpected but now im starting to foll around and do it on purpose, its kinda fun
havent lost control at all, in fact it actually has convinced me to buy a RWD car come later this year. anyways, any info would be appreciated, i need to get this shit on camera haha.
god damn im a ricer

hmmm, your back might be too lose, do you hear skipping or shuddering from the back? if your camber is bad enough then your FWD could have been accidently set up for RWD drifting... ie: front tight with negative camber, with loose backend... hmmm i dont know what to tell you, have a friend follow behind with a camera, make a turn and film you throwing the back end out, you might be able to spot the problem externally.. thats abotu all the help i got

i found the problem. i didnt notice it while i was parked at my house before because i park in the grass and it needs cuts, but when i drove over to my friends house it kicked out to about a 45 degree angle because there was a little loose gravel on the road. no problem correcting it, almost used to it now, but when i pulled into his driveway i noticed the left rear tire was low. drove to a gas station and put some air in it and havent had it kick out since. was fun while it lasted though
