Cool B5 drift car?

Im curios. What would it take/how hard would it be, to turn a b5 into a rear wheel drive drift car.

actually its pretty simple to do, you just weld up the center diff.

Yeah and you're gonna smoke the rear tires with our amazing ******* 120 whp??? You need ***** to push your car through a turn. Plus an outstanding amount of weight would have to be stripped out of the pig B5. I said /thread for a reason, this is useless and going no where.

he asked how easy it would be to turn the car into RWD for drifting, not how easy it would be to turn the car into a drifter with RWD. i just answered the question without commenting on his intentions.

turning it into RWD is easy. turning it into a drifter is the hard part. the car does not make a good drifting car at 3500 pounds, most of that weight being on the front two tires.

you know, with the stasis center diff and a rear locker, you would only need some extra power and to put your car on a diet. it would bee really fun. maybe not a full-blown drifter but a sweet *** ride for sure.
