AE86. Solid axle, fun, light, rev-happy motor, oh yeah. My favorite choice would be a '72 Celica but they are too rare and special like the 510 though a huge bonus with an old Celi, Rota or 510 is the smog excemption... My '80 Celica was really easy to drift - could do figure 8's until you just didn't want to any more. Another car that was pretty fun to drift was an '01 MR2 Spyder before we put the V700's on. Maybe an old MR2?

510s are cooler than drifting anyway

510 + 13B rotary = Too Sexy!

but make sure you have the JDM front end, other wise they wont drift at all, total understeer!

i think if it were me, for that kind of cash i'd try to find the cleanest S14 i could, and then just run with it. especially if you could get an SE model.

It's an iron block Nissan motor. That's all I have to say about the engine.

Just look at how many 240SXs, Altimas (93-01), and the old Nissan pick ups are on the road today.
