Default Drifting

Is there an easy way to tighten the E-Brake.

Other than the strut bar and air filter is there any quick easy ways to improve your cars performance?

You don't and never will have enough power and EVERY single drift car that can hold a good drift is RWD. Not some POS 4-banger FWD car. God damn.

hahaha... tighten it for reasons of parking on hills and etc. hehe by the way you can't drift a fwd car, but you can e-brake slide. theres a big difference there. e-brake sliding is fun but don't **** up or its yo ***!!!! drive safe

LOL Has anyone seen that issue of Honda Tuning Mag. with the civic drifteron the cover? Cool FWD drifting is really just *** draging, imo. If you want to drifting get a s13 or something. You will be able to learn much faster in a RWD car, imo.

Im also going to say the author of this thread has not drifted in his car before for the shear fact he does not know how to adjust his e brake cable...which makes him a dumbass.

I could see this

idiot coming around in his civic, going fast as hell (well as fast as civic can go, lol), pulls up the handbrake and sends himself spining into the wall.

yeah I used to do that in the old days (let put it this way bad **** happened). I could tell you how to adjust your handbrake but I am not going to, just because you are going to the same dumb **** that I did.

i drifted a civic. on ice and snow

it can only be done on video games and maybe, but not likely, if you have a civic completely filled with $100 bills.

think about it, Front wheel drive so when the *** end kicks out and you even give a hint of throttle, the *** end straightens up and follows the front.

you dont change just the filter, its an entire intake system. strut bar yes suspension system, exhaust system

see there is a system to doing things

Run grippy tires in the front, and crappy used tires in the rear. Play with chamber, and you should make a car slide happy. But it would be hard to drift. How about running a rear sway bar, and nothing in the front? Would that help a FWD car?

EDIt: yeah SPNFEDEJ, thats the one
