Message Initial D has too many kids thinking the FC is one of the cars to "have"..all though I can't comment on that too much since there's 4 FC TurboII at my house and an FD..hehe. But, the S13 is a great car and very agile..the S14 is actually much better than the S13 since the car is much more stable and solid. Power is not as much as a factor as people think. Every car must be drifted diferently as all of them have different steering geometry. Even two S13's will not drift the same..everything is a factor. With a half decent SR or CA turbo motor the car will be lots of fun and easy to handle. Most pros don't have over 400PS..accept the larger cars whcih are also heavier..like the Z. I love the power drift..it's the easiest thing to do in a Z..I usually either counter and tap the brakes or just use the e-brake to shift the weight of the car forward and to the opposite side I'm drifitng...I think you know what I mean. This is to induce drift before the turn..I then counter steer and work the throttle to control and use the e-brake if I feel the car is cutting in too steep to increase angle and distance. E-brake straightline drifts or "feints" are fun too but more difficult to control and usually done at the top of 3rd gear so you're bookin' it. These are very dramatic and leave flat spots on the rears..but who cares those tires will be crappola in 15 minutes or less anyhow..haha. So what I'm saying is..each car has it's own style..the Hachi Roku is actually hard to drift..and once mastered everything else is easier. The reason it is popular is: cheap+RWD=Good it's that simple. The S13 and S14 are far easier. I hope this helps.
