      bro... you want real drift? get on the interesting thing tha is the power slide (4wd drift), is more diffucult and more beutiful than a simple rwd drift. Convert an S2 to RWD...sorry me but is a very bad idea, you wont handle the bunch of torque the engine has, second, as Paul said, why downgrade a AWD chassis to a RWD car??? I don't see the point of doin' it. Get a Volvo 240, put'em a 2.3 T5 engine with 400hp then you WILL get a nice rwd drift...in a RWD car! Third, if you already have an R33, why don't you buy a 25GT? 2.5L turbo 24V and rwd! I did have one of those engines on my RS13 Silvia, it was really fun..a lot of torque and the rear wheels spinning always...but be careful... it's a dangerous car. Get on to the Quattro world, you wont be unsatified Torque on all 4 corners bro! think about it!

      Cheers

        20voc, that's the R33 we already have. You're missing the point of trying to break away from the jap dominated world of drift. As I said before, 4WD is ok for powersliding but veeeeeery dangerous during the transition between corners. Imagine a superbike rider 'highsiding' when the spinning rear wheel grips, same thing with a AWD set up. When it grips, it grips good and spits you across the road/track.

          Hey it's a Q! not an O! hehehe well in that you're right... but bro, I did have a very nice jap drift machine, but.. hehe.. to tell you the truth, now I prefer my Quattro. But if you still want an RWD on a AWD chasis.. good luck mate.. but you will have to tell me how many tires you broke! lol Oh... a few months ago I saw a video on youtube of a RWD S2... it was nice

            The latest is I'm not going to rip apart an S2..............................not yet anyway!
            Currently on the look out for a guinea pig to try out my ideas on, guinea pig will more than likely be an Audi 80 2.8 quattro. But if it's a success, I'll defo be on the prowl for a nice S2.
            I'll keep you guys up to speed on how things go.

              Why bother - *just* supercharge the V6 engine - and use lighter / stronger bottom end to keep it reliable. COuld be a fun project actually.

                Guys, why try tell this guy not to RWD his quattro, I think it is a great idea, but thats not the point, he NEEDS it 2WD for the rules, and because it is way more predictable to drift. As for ripping up tyres... erm, he is drifting, ripping the **** out of tyres is what you do!

                Go for it man.

                I have an 80quattro you could have for pennies, it is just 2.0L but is a basis for you to experiment.
