Forza - Drift

[whiteballz]

Alright, this will be the page that i will update every time i work out a cars best drift set up.

so far i have the RX-7 Series III drift setup:

(WARNING - IT LOVES TO SPIN IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOUR DOING)


Step one: Buy RX-7
Step two: Buy all upgrades in engine and suspension departments
Step three: Enter tuneup
Step four: Tune camber up to full on the REAR wheels only
Step five: Tune suspension rebound and bound 3/4 the way up
Step six: Put brake bias power to the Left of the dial



ON COURSE WARM UP

Step one: Complete a few burnouts to warm the tires up. - heat is essential
Step two: Entry is the most important part to get drift right, go slow around the track nurmerous times to pick the right lines.
Step three: Each lap get progressively more agressive, till your on full throttle and getting serious wheelspin.



FULL TILT DRIFT

Step one: Follow your lines.
Step two: Brake late and turn while braking
Step three: Get on the throttle early to get the power down and wheels sideways
Step four: Keep practicing the lines and styles that work for you.

You may want to de-tune the power to stop it getting out of control.

[johnnynumfiv]

Do the 240z with the skyline motor, by far the easiest car to drift :D
I need to try this setup sometime, thanks for the tips. :)

[whiteballz]

Dorifuto VID

this is what i have got in the 200sx in my first run with basic setup changes - yet to have final set up chosen

[Sweeney921]

holy crap, that's awesome! I'm definitely gonna try that out later tonight.

i just tried that car wit that engine, and holy crap! you weren't kidding!

[whiteballz]

maple valey is my fave place to drift, its nice and hilly to upset the car :D keeps you on your toes ;)

i have more of that vid to share if you guys want :)

[Vindesh17]

we want, we want!!!!!!!!

[whiteballz]

three on the same corner :)

and one other drift.

one more to come from this run :)

[whiteballz]

Two more vids. i have fine tuned the setups, next post will contain all drift techniques and setups for the car :)

If anyone has a request for the next car for the setups please dont hesitate to ask

Cheers for the info whiteballz, and ican't seem to view any of the videos:(

[whiteballz]

man430gt, ill send you a vid or two over msn. ive added you.

yai!!!

Edit---
Could you make the next car a 355?

[whiteballz]

sure, the next car will be a F355. might take a while though, im only on level 17 :p

[SupraMan22]

I've found a new hobby. Thank you whiteballz. lol this is pretty fun stuff. Tune the 200 to max though?

[whiteballz]

its quite easy to drift with stock power, but with full tuneup it just lets you take it to the next level :)

i will have-

350Z DRIFT SETTINGS UP NEXT

[Ziostilon]

so anymore drift techniques. if not does anyone know what other sites or forums i can visit to find out

[whiteballz]

yeah, this one :p hahaha.

im just out of state right now, but once i get home or if i have time here kicking clutch-monkey's ass at drifting today i might share one or two with you :)

[MARTENIZZLE]

ay whiteballz have a setup for a lancer evo man?

[whiteballz]

im at school right now, when i get home i will make one up and post it for you.

what is your style? are you generally sideways INTO or OUT of the corner more?
(different styles need different setups)

[Ziostilon]

whiteballz, can i get a setup for the Ferrari 360 Modena.
And note, i mostly go into the corner.

[Code Red Monte]

any done for the CTS-V??? i used the set up for the 1st car u posted about and it works to a certian exent but not the best

[clutch-monkey]

:) you'll have to explain your style before whiteballz can optimize the setup for you - it makes a huge difference.
our cars are set up very differently because of the way we go through a corner

well i just got an xbox( yes i know im out of date) and im just learning how to drift, ive done it in GT4 but never on xbox, and idono how i drift all i can say is its nothn like what most newbs do lol im kinda of a pussy footer into the corners, i go in high and i try to exit low but i seem to stay high like IE on maple valley in turn 1 the big long sweeping corner ill stay at the top for about the 1st half and the other half i kinda get to lose and start to fishtale. so if that helps idono ill get a vids if its easier

I'm no GOD at drifting or anything, but I can provide SOME advice. Before entering the corner, start off at the inside of the track (before the corner) and QUICKLY flick the wheel and turn the car to the opposite side of the track to throw off the balance. Just a split second after flicking the car across the track, flick it back across to the inside (from the outside apex of the corner) and try to slide the car sideways along the inside curbing, using the wheel/steering and gas or brake to keep the proper line and drift. Towards the end of the corner, get back on the gas and correct the drift by turning back the opposite way.

A good rule of thumb is to always drift in a low gear, so you can use the throttle to a higher extent, while keeping those wheel's spinning.

[whiteballz]

you just gave me a good idea rocke, unveiling in however long it takes for me to do it (BTW setups are on their way, i keep having too much fun fine tuning the evo :embarrased:)

[kingofthering]

is the wheel better than the PS2 controller? i can't seem to do long smoky drifts , but i can pull off small angle slides with the ebrake, but i can't put the right amount of throttle/steering angle. will the wheel help? I won't buy the GT4 wheel, but i can at least hope that there is some possibility of pulling off drifts.

Use manual transmission.

[whiteballz]

My particular style is pendulum, or "scandinavian flick"

Which is shown in the first vid.

The way in which i control a RWD vehicle during the corner is shown in the second vid, in which note the flicks of opposite lock. (shows i could have gone wilder and faster with the drift)

The Third video showcases my audi drift setup, however due to the poor quality it barely looks like im drifting at all. Control of an AWD is different mid corner, generally its just hit handbrake till desired drift angle is aquired, full throttle back on, and full opposite lock.



is the wheel better than the PS2 controller?

No, it is stupid in terms of drifting, it forces snap over/understeer in 1/2 of a turn, its ridiculous. (I use controler)

[whiteballz]

Caddie CTS-V
I can make this drift, but one thing I cant do is make it light.

Keep your eye on entry speeds unless you want to mow the grass with this bloated cow.

That said, use the momentum to help get (and keep) a good AOA (angle of attack)

sounds kind of what i do: enter really high and go sideways through the racing line - at the apex my nose is usually a few inches from the inside
do you follow the outside edge or cut through the centre like me?
if you want an idea of how different me and whiteballz drift i use a viper to his supra :D

[whiteballz]

Evolution:
This is a nice AWD car to drift, be warned, handbrake will tend to give you an un-savable AOA, use it shortly and quickly.

That said, heavy trail braking is required to get this sideways without the use of handbrake, on some corners, handbrake IS a necessary evil.

[whiteballz]

though i branch out in cars i use greatly, i love using AWD, and MR cars as well as supra's. to be honest, supra's are awesome to use, i have 4 different tuned supra's... one has so much boost mid corner i use that power to drift :D

[clutch-monkey]

^ lol
"holy crap my boost is coming on" *tires explode*
my technique requires a smooth power curve lol, or i'd be screwed

[whiteballz]

here is a rough estimation of what our power curves look like. its pretty amusing when we drag on the strip to see him blast out of the blocks quicker then me, but once my boost kicks in.. well i win by a car length or three.

[Code Red Monte]

i tryed the set up for the CTS-V i had to acctully take off the 11 psi supercharger so i can keep it on the track and not from spining, and if i use the 6.0 race engine that was not a good idea at all lol. im still a BIG newb at drifting, im still on taht mode that i need to keep my thumb pushn that poor D pad all the way to the left or right to keep the slide, and when im on maple valley the short version when i enter turn one after the little hump beofre the turn i lock up the rear tires and get the car to slide from there, but the car is sitll goin like 100+ into the corner and that corner is a long negitave turn, so half away through the car runs into the inside corner grass, even with teh STI it still does this. and on the track after maple valley(forgot the name) that long trun before the finish line, i can get the CTS to do the full slide and allmost stick it at the exit to the turn. the shity part is i drive sprint cars here in the states at a local track and i though it would be the same as that and wow there is no even a comparence to it lol i though i could take my experance from that and apply it to that. lol i quess not

[kingofthering]

Use manual transmission.
i use manual transmission, but that fifth gear guy says something about balancing throttle with steering to avoid spinning out.

[whiteballz]

watch the video i posted on control mid drift. it shows my steering and throttle movements very well.

feathering the throttle (letting off and putting back on) is good to do while your holding opposite lock.

[kingofthering]

i've decided to use the S2000 that is easier to drift, i don't think the AWD WRX STI was designed to drift, but it powerslides easily . The only modifications i do are to the engine and the driving aids. The suspensions get minor mods.

the sti can drift ok if you modify the driveline etc :)

[whiteballz]

sounds like i have to make a vid of the STI drifting now..

[whiteballz]

well here you go, me drifting my STI, one of my faveourite cars to drift.

i feel rather confident drifting this car, whats the hardest corner in the entire game and i will try to drift it :eek: :cool:

EDIT: forgot to attach vids :o

[Code Red Monte]

for some reason i can see any of ur attached files, gheyness there i quess but ive watched some stuff on streetfire.net and i think i get some of your guys techenques

[Code Red Monte]

i ahve a vid of my drift in the CTS -v will get posted up in teh next few mins

[Code Red Monte]

ok either u can get it at youtube here>>>>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5ICFYGwu6U


or u can DL from my server here>>>>>http://www.dakotawbody.com/vids/CTSV%20drift.wmv

[whiteballz]

its called powersliding, but its how we all start basically :)

[Code Red Monte]

well i try

[Ziostilon]

Whiteballz, can u make a Ferrari 360 Modena setup for me. PLEASE:D

[whiteballz]

sure thing.

[Ziostilon]

whiteballz, you're a really nice and generous person!!!

[whiteballz]

why thank you Ziostilon :) your setup shortly :)

[whiteballz]

the ferrari is a tough car to set up on a medium power basis, hard to break traction at the rear, and once it does it likes to spin... if you get it right its nice though...
i will tweak it abit and then post it later.

you just described the problem any midengined car has. Loads of grip, but when it goes, its allot harder to control!

[clutch-monkey]

^ suprisingly the carrera gt isnt that bad if you keep the angle lower

[Kruizer]

Hey, can anyone plz post the Trueno, 350Z, FD, FC and NSX-R drift set ups!?

thx, whiteballz

[ReKleineR]

its quite easy to drift with stock power, but with full tuneup it just lets you take it to the next level :)

i will have-

350Z DRIFT SETTINGS UP NEXT

So yeah... I like to play Forza and Drift like you guys, and I don't know much about tuning the cambers and what not to help the car drift any better, and I did a google search for a 350z drift setup for forza, and lone be hold this is the post that almost made my day :)

But anyway I was wondering if you ever got around to setting it up?
Heres a pic of my 350z like Tanner Foust's AEM Drift Car.
http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c348/klein35/DSCF0817.jpg
And this is his car...http://67.59.157.230/images/content/9370451f-05ae-4158-9c05-9d67e80cb14d.jpg

But anyway, I tried that Cadillac CTS-V Setup for the 350z and it worked pretty dece. Sorry to barge in this forum and say so much for a first post, but thanks if you can help me.

[whiteballz]

no problem, UCP.com is the best car site around.

i will make you a 350Z setup today. what class would you like it to be in? Sclass? A class? etc

[ReKleineR]

It's an S class. It had like 750 hp but I tammed it down so it was more realistic and closer to the real drift car.

I'm glad I came across this site, maybe I'll stick around ;)

[clutch-monkey]

dude if you have trouble with the 200 se then you shouldn't feel confident against me and whiteballz :p :D if i had Live i'd love to have a race though :(
it's usually the bect way to learn/practise
edit: try the viper competition coupe, tell me what you think of it for drifting :)

[whiteballz]

lol, those setups were a long time ago for me, my style has changed since then, i used to love totaly psycho cars to drift, and clutch will tell you i clould hold some pretty farking long distance drifts on a good angle, where as he going high angle, for a shorter distance.

the car i am using these days is a tuscan R

[clutch-monkey]

i just like the viper, i can always use it no matter how out of practice i am :D
a lot of grip that can be used to recover from those stupidly high angles...

[clutch-monkey]

i need some help tunin my cars. i need to know how alignment.anti.roll.damping.differentials. work the txt at the bottom doesnt help to much:confused: cuz it does say how it'll affect my car:mad:

Hey monkey three things...
1. i have a new friend :) its called a Supra TT...at first i wasnt going trouble..that was till i found out how REALIST Forza is...so yea i took it out for a spin liked it. tuned it. now its murderuos:D

2. watch ur mouth. jus bcuz i cant drift 220 se..doesnt mean i cant drift right alone the left side of ur car:p

3. how much is live? is it compatable for all games?:cool:
1. yes, whiteballz prefers the supra... also the JGTC ones.. it just doesn't fit my style :) i need linear delivery to keep my high angles :D
2. maybe not, maybe so :p *insert "can't touch this" image*
i have actually drifted the entire infield circuit without spinning or regaining grip.. :D
3. live is about $75 a year? i think? it's definately compatible for forza... and most other multiplayer games, check the box, it will have 'Live compatible' on it somewhere.

[Machalel]

well i've always *thought* that I could drift in Forza until I actually *tried* to do it properly...

hmmmm....more practice for me!

What do you guys find is the best track to practice on?

[whiteballz]

infield is nice and easy, but its not very challenging, tsukuba is good, same with the N'ring.

[clutch-monkey]

iight ill see wut i can do abt the Xbox Live Thing. wuts the JGTC?:confused:
all i remember was that it wasn't that much for xbos live subscription, for a year:cool:
JGTC is the japanese race series, there are a few supras that race in that class.... check out the 'yellow hat supra' ;)

machalel there are a few good tracks depending on how good you are or what you're style is: as said, try Infield, or the nurburgring for a challenge, also maple valley (long) is quite good, as well as Laguna seca.

[whiteballz]

oh, another good track is the point to point shipping yards :)

[clutch-monkey]

^ true, as well as those downhills if you're feeling skilled :D for a challenge try the long hillclimb in a cerbera....

[clutch-monkey]

press the 'go advanced' option next to the quick reply and you'll find the image attachment feature

[whiteballz]

nice, can i see some more of that sparco caddy (if thats what it is?)

[whiteballz]

nothing happens, its just a visual trick.

[Machalel]

Oh, well i've been practicing on the Mount Kaido (or whatever the track is called)... maybe thats why i'm finding it hard... :P

My fav. 4WD car: Subaru WRX 22B (I've found that the Subaru's drift a lot easier than the Evo's, with the exception of the Evo VI)

Fav. RWD car: Porsche GT2 (Supprisingly not that hard to drift, the only problem is that once the rear end gets a little too far out, there's no way to catch it)

[ReKleineR]

I love Subaru's, especially the 2004 STi, I made one with the WRC paintjob, maybe I'll take a pic and show you.

[ReKleineR]

Well I wish These pics would come in better quality but here's my baby :)

I find it is very hard to get good angles with the replay camera, does anyone else have this problem? It sucks no being able to position it properly (i've been spoilt with GT4 i think :P)

[DesmoRob]

Just bought Forza motorsport for the xbox today:D. I got it at 7pm, and almost 5 hours later here I am! What a fun game. I haven't even started career mode yet, just been blasting away at arcade trying to unlock new courses and cars. So addicting:).

[clutch-monkey]

bad news: i can drift the 200se...which means that im one step closer to be able to drift along side U:p
lol :p maybe ... i'm still fine tuning the viper..

Fav. RWD car: Porsche GT2 (Supprisingly not that hard to drift, the only problem is that once the rear end gets a little too far out, there's no way to catch it)
if you want something REALLY nuts, try the carrera RS.... and then drive it on the nurburgring :D


an u Clutch. drift a fwd an sen me a the setup:D
ugh..i hate drifitng FWD... but we do have a certain Hoinda Civic with an interesting set up...

[whiteballz]

heh, i have an older civic with 730 hp to drift :p

and the buick grand le sabre? ive been moving house but yeah, sure thing

[clutch-monkey]

not really.. it seems more satisfying in Forza, imo

[whiteballz]

you want tips on the drift setups? why dont you experiment for yourself?

[whiteballz]

do u guys driftin any other games? im driftin in NFS:U2

lol, arcade games dont capture anything about drifting, it is much more satisfying in forza because you do more then plant your foot.

[clutch-monkey]

no, i pretty much just plant my foot :D jk

[whiteballz]

Some more pics of mine:

I like this car! It's very controlable:




nice paint on the nissan :)

i want to see how you drift, video some of your replay with whatever you can, and put it up, i am interested in your style. (sideways)

and clutch, i will plant my foot firmly up your ass if your not careful!

[Machalel]

Thanks :)
I was trying to get a factory-sponsored looking theme going... i'm still fiddling with the style.

How do you guys initiate and hold the drift?

I try not to use the hand-break, normally try the "flick" and "brake & power on" drift (don't know what they are called, but you get the idea). I find 4wd hard to maintain momentum without understeering or re-gaining grip, and RWD hard to stop from spinning out...

[clutch-monkey]

i simply turn slightly and floor it about 30m before the start of the corner

Some Old-School cool...

[clutch-monkey]

it has come to my attention that erry1 is driftin in arcade mode..i drift in free run...does the make any difference?
me and 'ballz drift in free run, i've never touched arcade

[Machalel]

I always use career mode :)

[clutch-monkey]

the bottom slide bar of the diff options, send 90% of the power to the rear

[Machalel]

I also set the acc diff to about 75% and the decel diff to about 25%

[Machalel]

yeah, just practice... I keep doing it all the time as well :)

you just have to learn where the point that you have to turn back straight again is...

[whiteballz]

sideways, the AWD is the simple car to drift.

coming into the corner, scadinavian flick the car, use the hand brake till you reach your desired exit angle, release handbrake, floor it, and you should be fine. in my audi i can drift without touching the steering inputs mid corner.

[Machalel]

The AWD cars are easy to get the hang of, but hard to master...

The problem I have with AWD is that they seem to suddenly "grip" halfway through a drift and then understeer off the road... >_<

[Rockefella]

i would show u what i meant but i am school an the PC is gay..
I thought all PC's were heterosexual, or was it that only laptops are gay? Hmm, that's odd.. never knew there were sexual preferences.

Just the fact that 'he is school' has me bermused.

[dazza19]

haha yeh

[BMW_Trance]

how easy is it to drift a 350z? so far the only cars i drift in , are the evo, sometimes a 240sx, i dont like it too much cuz i havent set it up properly. im mostly into the true race cars ;) but i found this thread and thought i'd make an account

[clutch-monkey]

i found the 350Z a bit tricky actually.... i usually drift things with huge rear wheels so it's easy to catch yourself from sliding too much

[whiteballz]

i drift anything, but the last time i set up a 350 (over a year ago) it was way too tail happy.

[Machalel]

The 350 isnt too bad to drift, just make all the settings the same as if you were racing and go from there... adjust one at a time until you like it :)

[BMW_Trance]

i drift anything, but the last time i set up a 350 (over a year ago) it was way too tail happy.

ehh, all i did was make it have like 400 hp and get the rear wheels as far apart from eachother as possible, then drop the suspension almost all the way down, mess with the sway bars, and it drifts pretty shweet :)

[kingofthering]

hahaha i can drift the Honda Fit

[Roy Visser]

hahaha i can drift the Honda Fit

no you cant, you can slide it though..

[Drftr]

:D im so noob at drifting i try to set up a drift car but i cant use the settings cos im from oz and everyone uses other metric units so i have no idea what settings to use any help will be appreicated:confused: :D

[whiteballz]

from oz? oz being australia?

[Drftr]

yeah thats the one austrailia sorry

[Drftr]

whoops!!! lol

[Drftr]

i can drift half way around a corner and it slides out and runs put of power need some help could some one teach me on Xlink if anyone has it:rolleyes: :)

[whiteballz]

im from Australia, so is clutch monkey.

its not hard to use other settings.

[Drftr]

yer but its confusing trying to figure out where its from. all i do is spin

[whiteballz]

i saw your vids, what you need to do is drive like you would be racing (to start with) come into the corners faster, and brake in a straight line as you come to the corner, as soon as you let your finger off the brakes, turn and put the handbrake on for about half to a whole second, let off the handbrake, then countersteer your way to glory.

[Drftr]

thanks ill try that see if it works :D

[clutch-monkey]

:D or just turn and floor it... or don't brake in a straight line :D (probably only really works in my car.. i don't use handbrake :D )
..or in your case Sam, simply come onto boost :p

[whiteballz]

haha, funnily enough ive been drifting a NON-TURBO silvia recently.. along with a few other cars with as little boost as possible... ive been trying to re-teach myself how to drift, as my style was getting messyer and messyer after drifting FWD's...

[Drftr]

yer i have a habit of flooring it everywhere i go i never let go of the accelarator lol i think that is a bad sign :( lol

[Drftr]

i cant seem to keep drifting i can only go half way and run out of power :(

[mr beh 09]

i just modded the 360 modena as mentioned...now can someone tell me how to use it effectively?...driftwise, i mean...thanks...

[whiteballz]

seeing as i was the tuner, i may aswell tell you.

come in moderately fast, brake hard while your turning, slow in, power full on and the back will loose grip, but dont snap your throttle off because that will make you loose control. just gently guide it through.

[mr beh 09]

hey whiteballz...
any chance that you might have settings for a skyline?
thanks...

[whiteballz]

i can make some, give me time though, ive been at work all day and dont want to do too much atm

[Drftr]

how do u make the back swing out and have front grip to drift around what settings do i change ???

[clutch-monkey]

give the rear tires some negative camber (about 2 degree's is mor ethan enough to start with)

[whiteballz]

that and increase pressure in the back alot, and decrease it in the front slightly.

[clutch-monkey]

there was some sway bar stuff to do as well, or you could just use a viper and not worry about all that crap :)

[Drftr]

i got it my ae86 will do me just fine for now ;)

[Drftr]

yer bk higher front lower

[Drftr]

anyoine know how to use pedros forzabin tool to inject decals??>

[clutch-monkey]

nope... ask whiteballz though, he's into the rice stu - err, i mean decals :D
edit: WTF since when am i a supporting member :confused:

[Drftr]

that sucks lol im a novice lol

[kingofthering]

no you cant, you can slide it though..

more introduction on what you do and who you are might have been better. This way it almost looks like a spambot or an advertisement.

[Viktor]

Dude drifting is to easy
Ill post a video soon as i made one,
( im not spending 460$$$ only to play forza 2 :P )

[SpecVQ35DE]

I know this is an old thread. But this is my first post on this forum. I didn't read every page, but i was wondering if there are any drift set ups for the 1969 Nissan Fairlady Z 432 with the SR20 and RB. Thanks.

P.S. The VQ that comes in the Z is a great motor. I'm surprised there isn't more use of it in the game. Would be good in a Nissan Sentra : ) I'm upset it's not in the game.

[whiteballz]

haha, use the SR in the 432, you will only need about 280/320 kw to drift mentally in that.

all you should do for it being such a light car, buy all the suspension upgrades etc, then just stiffen everything up abit, put a tiny bit more negative camber on the fronts, and see how you go. Oh, for the diff, put it at 75% accell 50 Decel. brakes 110% force, and abit to the front wheels.
