No offense but I highly doubt that. Even if you have a large port blue-top in there, it's obviously beat to shit plus you don't have posi and with the entire weight of the engine on the rear wheels, you're not gonna be able to hold a drift without the outside tire slowing down to the speed of the road. I think you'll be able to do about as much dry pavement drifting as my 70hp Corolla. Now in the rain, I'm sure it will be fine.

The car has an LSD... That car is a drift machine, I watched him drift a 75 foot radius without a problem. (turning onto his block and into his driveway for those that know his house) I have driven the car and drifted it as well. It's a tiny car with narrow tires and goes sideways on command.

it does me good on the way to shows, and back home from shows, and every day when i drive it around...and i looked into making the 89 a mk1.5...i would of just bought a genii since they are cheaper and im sure 200whp would be plenty. but its too much work and i need this car back on the road quickly.
