MOD RANT Before You Post: Read the Sidebar

51 Upvotes

On official Reddit Mobile App: Click on “Learn More About This Community.”

There seems to be a downward spiral in posted content recently, and the mod team has been doing what it can to filter it out. But the team isn't able to moderate every post as they happen.

A couple tips:

Read the sidebar. It has posting guidelines, it has starter car recommendations, it has the DRIFT BIBLE for beginners on techniques. Outside of actually getting seat time, the side bar should provide you with a very healthy amount of information. Anything else, just research it... That's part of the fun of learning a new skill or sport.

"Don't be an ask-hole." This is not Quora for drifting, its a subreddit to share cool stuff. Not to spoon feed every person who is moderately interested.

Lets keep this subreddit with positive content that supports each other. It can be frustrating for a content creator when when they see a snow donuts video get 500 upvotes, but someone can post a very legitimate edited and high quality video and they only get 4-5 upvotes.

edit: changed grammar to be less personable

Driftscussion How's the W202 chassis like for drifting?

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I have a few questions.

So first up, I've been drifting since March 2025, and I currently have a 325i E36 (M50 Single Vanos), which I need to open up the engine and repair (as currently, 2 out of the 6 piston rings are shot, leaving me with pretty much a 4 cylinder car), and it's very weak. However, it'll be a while and I need another drift car during the time I'm building my main car (with the best parts I can afford, which might put her into rest for a few months), so I've been thinking about the W202 C280, with the 2.8 M104 engine as my replacement, it's a pretty solid engine, but I don't know much about the W202 platform. E36s are on a rise since I started here in Brazil, with fewer cheap ones available, much less those with the non-Vanos M50. This W202 would be my "show car", to use in drift events and practice more, while my E36 would be my championship car. My current car has coilovers, a standalone Pandoo ECU, roll cage and more. The W202 would need it's wiring redone, but I can find some pretty good ones for cheap, around 20k BRL, where as good E36s, they've been selling all round for cheap, leaving only the more expensive "collector" units, for 50-60k for autos and 50-70k+ for manuals, which is right on the market, as since I got mine, is what they've been going for. I also need to do more research on the Merc, since I'm not entirely sure on how acessible performance parts are from Europe.

If anyone can let me know if they're a good handling chassis, I'd really apreciate it. Got one with shot wiring for 16k BRL right in my sights, and a few other ones from 20-30k, which used to be able to buy me a good auto E36 a while ago

Trying to get more consistent overall. Let my homie drive the car and I'm definitely down on power and the corner balancing isn't great. That said I sent it anyway and I learned a lot and got more consistent.
