Anybody knows how to convert WRX into a RWD????
I hate my AWD..... to much traction can't drift , can't do donuts, can't do burnout

 

Why did u buy a car that wasnt built to drift? Or better yet...Why not get a used 240/AE86/"rwd car" and use that? Why destroy a decent subie?

 

Get a different car. Conversion isn't worth the trouble unless you build an all-out drift car. The rear diff wasn't designed to handle 100% of the power directed towards it under drift conditions. A recent magazine article featured a Subaru drift car that used a rear differential from a Skyline.

yea if u can find a wrecked wrx go buy the center diff off it. you can weld it in place so that it will send all power to the rear. they also sell a kit to convert it but its like 800 bucks.
i did the diff to my car its alot of fun with that much power to the rear wheels. it really makes freeway driving a bit more spirited


btw... u can do donuts in a suby. just takes a lil more skill

 

thx guys.. i know there's a D1 team that uses WRX for drifting..if anyone knows who sells the convertion kits let me know plZ.....

 

you can get a suby to drift. I have been having luck with stifer springs, struts, and an anti lift kit.. Just play around in 'bad' weather to get a feel for the breaking point and how it handels when the rear gets loose. Just a diffrent style. but your right rwd would be a blast in these cars. All the torque ment for awd directed to the rear.

 

You might try getting an adjustable rear anti-sway bar and setting it to full stiffness to make an AWD car a little more tail happy. Some folks use this setting for autocross to get the rear to rotate around tight turns.
