Umm.... no. Drifting an auto is not that easy, you'll be hard pressed to find one on the circuit that does it. There is, however, a way around this because the problem is due to the car changing gear when it wants to, so use the shifter like the american muscle car boys do, locking it in gear. Not that good for the box but what the hell

Ah, he knows about the costs of running a Pulsar then (mate of mine had one and just couldn't afford to run it which was a shame)

Well it's the same engine as a Pulsar - SR20DET - and do you know what Lee? The engine in that alone is worth more than what you paid for the whole car, try and find one second-hand for less than £1500 Very Happy

I know rather a lot about 200SX's from my time at Grasshopper big grin
