Ty for making this video, it helped me better then all of the other drift tuning videos for Forza 4. I used this on a few other cars other than the FRS and it works just as well! Ty again
Any Front Engine, Rear Wheel Drive car will drift pretty good. One of my favorite cars is the E46 BMW M3. The 240sx, and RWD converted Skylines are really popular.
it helps to know how to drift in real life. I watched a video where the japanese drift champion did a tutorial of how to drift and how to get started and what cars were best for begginers(that's got to be spelt wrong...) and he explains all kinds of techniques such as feint drifting brake drifting etc. like a feint drift is where you steer the opposite way then sling it back the right way and pull the hand brake release it and dump the clutch and heel toe and counter steer to keep it going.
Well, I appreciate your kind words :) Haha, that's okay :) You gotta start from somewhere, it took me a looong time to get where I am now.. and if you think that I'm good, you should see my friends! They can leave me in the dust! Practice makes Perfect (;
Dude! thank you so much for this vid!!! so check this out. i am a horrible drifter, yet i started drifting since i got forza 4. now im still a rookie but with certain cars i have such as the 2000 model silvia, and now the nissan skyline (the one that favors the infinity G37)... just following your settings and advice i have nearly double my drifting abilities!! so thank you very much for turning this noob into at least a rookie drifter lol!!
I said in the beginning, it's how I tune my cars. Not the best way. That's also why I left a very informative and thorough tuning guide in the description. Oh, and I changed the camber, lowered it, and changed the settings on the differential :) I only made this video because, so many people asked me personally. I didn't want to make it just because, there are already so many videos out there. But I do appreciate your criticism, and I do agree with you that I should have gone more in detail.
Adding positive front toe helps tons! It allows you to have much more angle but with the drawback is being a bit more difficult. Try it out some time! :) p.s. Your videos are awesome!
I came here looking for better ways to tune my drift cars (I like being experimental) and it turns out you tune pretty much the same as me! haha. Only slight differences being the diff and the brake bias. With the diff I usually have a 60-30 ratio give or take 10 each way depending on the car. For the brake bias, I drift without ABS and change the bias tot 22% and drop the pressure to 88%. This allows me brake normally, but lock the rear giving me more angle when I slam the brakes on.
Personally, (and as many tandem drifters) I only use UP TO 650. My Current E46 has 601, I think. But underpowered cars (400-525) are great because, you can just mash the gas and that makes them quick and smooth, but if you can figure out how to put down 650HP you'll have a wicked fast car.
I said that lol. Not much to it, people often over-think Drifting and how to do it. It's just understanding car control and lots and lots of practice. Front Engine, Rear Wheel Drive, and you're set. Keep in mind, you can Convert many AWD cars to RWD.
I don't really have that "one car" but I like to cycle between: - Boss 302 - FR-S - E36 M3 - E46 M3 There's a few more, but those are the ones I mainly use. German cars are my favorite :)
It is a heap of power, but when you're in competitions and trying to leave the other guys behind you need all the power you can get. (Though it is not all about power)
Aww that's too bad haha.. and yeah, it took me a while to get used to Shift 2.. I don't own it but it was a blast learning how to drift.. You are SERIOUSLY good! lol, I just like to fool around on Forza sometimes and drift but I need alot more practice..lulz
Having a rear/mid-engined car? Not necessarily. It's easier to get the back end of a rear-engined car out, just harder to hold angle around big corners, and transitions will be tricky. Just stick with Front Engine, Rear Wheel drive with less than 650HP.
I prefer to set it by multiplying point A by point B so (A) the weight of the car and (B) The weight percentage (Most cars have .52) So Example car weights 1,150 kg. And has Weight percentage as .52 so you multiply 1,150 with .52 which is equal to 598 and then you divide it by the pressure it had so it should be divided by 5.7 and you set it as 7th number which is 28,0 and then to the Rear you add 1 to it so the set is 29,0. Well it mostly works on my cars ;p
Well, I max out platform and handling and all the transmission stuff. Then I use sport tires and the widest profiles. Then I upgrade the engine to however much power I want.
simple drift tune both tire pressure at 26.5 psi and max camber front and rear street tires 580-640hp max make ur 4rd gear have a max speed of 115mph max accelration and deaccelration brakes 70% front 70% pressure
No, with all the weight in the back in makes the car's balance uneven and can get really sloppy when you're throwing it around. You want front engine. Though, it's not impossible to have a good mid/rear-engine drift car, it's just not recommended.
There's plenty of great tutorials already on TH-cam :) I've had a lot of people ask me and it's really hard for me personally to explain. I've been doing it since the original Forza so it's kinda natural for me. Just understand the basics, and you'll pick it up quick! Learn throttle control and counter-steering :)
No one really sells a handbrake. If you want one, you have to use a gear lever and mod it to activate your handbrake. Plenty of people do it. TheSlapTrain uses a similar setup. Ask him, or look up "Fanatec handbrake mod" or something.
Apologies for the triple post, but I too was wondering where the hell you can find a company that sells a handbrake lever. Fanatec have everything BUT a handrake lever. It's the only thing putting me off of a wheel. Awesome steering wheel, pedals with clutch, nice gear shifter and then a button for the handbrake -_- If I was going to use a wheel, I'd want the whole setup, no compromises.
That misconception is exactly what I just explained -_- You want TONS OF GRIP so you can FAST. I don't mean Grip Driving, I mean Drifting. In a sense, you actually want all the grip you can get when you Drift. If you don't have any Grip, you don't go anywhere.
@Forza4you i just use the hand brake to get myself out of tricky situations and plus it getts me closer to the gard rail at best can get to at lest an inch the draw back is people online some times i take up the road and they hit me
Sure bro, you can use me as a benchmark haha. I did that to other fast drifters. I would say "Alright, I have to get faster than *insert fast drifter*!"
You did good on tire explination, that helped. But you didn't do so well on the differential that seeems to be the biggest variance between drivers. I have yet to find someone who explains why they set it (as in what does it do to the car). I get that there is so much that goes into tuning but maybe you could talk more about the telemetry and physics of the car. Im playing with a C2 corvette, and I know that is well over the power of any of the drift tunes I've seen. I'm looking for more logic.
Hey Dude, from where got you so much money?! I mean you have 267 Million CR what the?! I really like the game but I dont have time to play it all through the career so I wish I could have just a lot of money to tune, custemize and buy cars. Any idea? Thanks :) and great vid keep it on
Tried drifting with the 2011 wrx rwd and didn't like it cause of the rpms it red lines 8 i tunned my gear ratio and only use 2nd gear and it still flutters so much and wont give me the right speed i want
Dame my tunes are way different i stiffen the back suspension and have the rear tire pressure all the way up and have the caster all the way up its really easy to get the back out
what are all the parts did you use. cant figure which parts to use and what not to use. my 240 i was able to use all my oarts just to make it a high S class
congrats on the 1000
sub deliquent?
Ty for making this video, it helped me better then all of the other drift tuning videos for Forza 4. I used this on a few other cars other than the FRS and it works just as well! Ty again
I'm usually not into drifting stuff but THIS. This is pretty good.
Definitely deserves a sub! Good job dude!!! :)
I said it in a joking tone. It's an outstanding platform from factory, and doesn't need to be tweaked but when done correctly, it gets so much better.
forza? for me? I love forza. and this dope ass video not a lot of people use clutch and that frs is pretty dope too.. deff got that sub dawgg
+strait FIRE Im not trying to argue with you but I thing a lot of people do use the clutch
Any Front Engine, Rear Wheel Drive car will drift pretty good. One of my favorite cars is the E46 BMW M3. The 240sx, and RWD converted Skylines are really popular.
nice vid,definitely saving to watch later. appreciative all the videos and not picking up your phone haha

Thx helped alot And congrats on 1000
Helped me a lot, used the tips for NFS Underground 2 and works like a charm(Mustang), thanks!
Well, I appreciate your kind words :)
Haha, that's okay :) You gotta start from somewhere, it took me a looong time to get where I am now.. and if you think that I'm good, you should see my friends! They can leave me in the dust! Practice makes Perfect (;
Dude! thank you so much for this vid!!!
so check this out. i am a horrible drifter, yet i started drifting since i got forza 4. now im still a rookie but with certain cars i have such as the 2000 model silvia, and now the nissan skyline (the one that favors the infinity G37)... just following your settings and advice i have nearly double my drifting abilities!! so thank you very much for turning this noob into at least a rookie drifter lol!!
You are a legend these tips helped me a lot!I love the FR-S too ;)

MitiS is good stuff man. Good selection :D and Great tutorial thanks!
did he put on all upgrades
Joseph Derleth yep
Tried the setup on my 2006 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 and it works perfectly. Going to try it on my Mercedes C63 AMG next.
Yes. I usually go widest front and rear. Some people prefer narrow fronts though. Just try it out.
lol
Adding positive front toe helps tons! It allows you to have much more angle but with the drawback is being a bit more difficult. Try it out some time! :)
p.s. Your videos are awesome!
I left a very descriptive tuning guide in the description :) They explained it much better than I ever could

Ohh, that's right :) I hope you have a good vacation then!
This Tune up is the shit man. Gotta love it

Dude it worked perfect! Loved it !
Glad you like it :)
Thanks! Hmm, that's interesting. My setups keep the tires at 32-34 PSI while I drift, so I get pretty solid grip :) Thanks for the info!
Glad I can do all of that for you :) Haha love you too

It's how you usually Drift the circuit online :) (Not Points, but Tandem etc)
It is a heap of power, but when you're in competitions and trying to leave the other guys behind you need all the power you can get. (Though it is not all about power)
Bro, this helped A LOT! Thank you!
sport tires are allow in FMDL in fact its recommended thats the maximum grade that you can use for competitive drift
Aww that's too bad haha.. and yeah, it took me a while to get used to Shift 2.. I don't own it but it was a blast learning how to drift..
You are SERIOUSLY good! lol, I just like to fool around on Forza sometimes and drift but I need alot more practice..lulz
You have to buy the DLC. Anything Front Engine, Rear Wheel Drive will work. I use the BMW M3's. They work very well.
Hahaha :) Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
S-class. Anything A or S will work great as a Drift Car.
Awh, thanks :3 Haha, I'm glad I could help!
Having a rear/mid-engined car? Not necessarily. It's easier to get the back end of a rear-engined car out, just harder to hold angle around big corners, and transitions will be tricky. Just stick with Front Engine, Rear Wheel drive with less than 650HP.
...worked great... I just started drifting and it is easy to drift... nuff said
Great videos mate :)
Awesome :) Glad to hear that
Does that car tune also work with a Nissan specV?
9:24 was still my favorite part
I prefer to set it by multiplying point A by point B so (A) the weight of the car and (B) The weight percentage (Most cars have .52) So Example car weights 1,150 kg. And has Weight percentage as .52 so you multiply 1,150 with .52 which is equal to 598 and then you divide it by the pressure it had so it should be divided by 5.7 and you set it as 7th number which is 28,0 and then to the Rear you add 1 to it so the set is 29,0.
Well it mostly works on my cars ;p
Well, I max out platform and handling and all the transmission stuff. Then I use sport tires and the widest profiles. Then I upgrade the engine to however much power I want.
Thank you, now i can really make some good drift points.
If you're like me you can just throw a bunch of parts on the car with no tune at all and drift it or if it's good stock drift it without changing it.
i recomend the nissan skyline coupe (it looks like an infinity G37) i find this car performs ver very well with his settings from the vid.
This tune isn't "Car Specific" this is a basic tune that I use on pretty much all of my cars.
simple drift tune both tire pressure at 26.5 psi and max camber front and rear street tires 580-640hp max make ur 4rd gear have a max speed of 115mph max accelration and deaccelration brakes 70% front 70% pressure
No, with all the weight in the back in makes the car's balance uneven and can get really sloppy when you're throwing it around. You want front engine. Though, it's not impossible to have a good mid/rear-engine drift car, it's just not recommended.
I threw a quick tune on my brz yesterday and it's fuckin amazing I love how responsive it is

Yeaa, this car is pretty quick and holds good angle :) Haha, that's too bad. Awwwh :3 Thank youu!
No problem! Yes I have! It's soo amazing
Damn you're good at drifting..haha, ever try drifting in Shift 2? It's INTENSE!
Scion FRS, Toyota BRZ, Toyota 86 was a joint effort and are all pretty much the exact same thing..
it sounded like someone was taking the worlds longest leak
Songs used are in the description
Your videos are awesome! Can you make a video about how to make the perfect Rx-7 or Supra for drifting?
@Forza4you i just use the hand brake to get myself out of tricky situations and plus it getts me closer to the gard rail at best can get to at lest an inch the draw back is people online some times i take up the road and they hit me
Yep :) No problem!
It's all preference :)
Also use the Trueno.
Sure bro, you can use me as a benchmark haha. I did that to other fast drifters. I would say "Alright, I have to get faster than *insert fast drifter*!"
You're welcome sooo sooo much (;
Well, for your information there are no engine swaps available.
Just curious wats ur favorite drift car the car u use the most in drifting?
Definitely!
You did good on tire explination, that helped. But you didn't do so well on the differential that seeems to be the biggest variance between drivers.

Hmm, interesting. I'll have to look into that.
Thank you :) But really I'm not that great! I do appreciate your kind words though :D
U r the true dk!!! Thanks alot! Really helped i m just confused with the differential whats does it do???
Hey Dude,
from where got you so much money?! I mean you have 267 Million CR what the?!
I really like the game but I dont have time to play it all through the career so I wish I could have just a lot of money to tune, custemize and buy cars. Any idea? Thanks :) and great vid keep it on
Ohh thanks :3 Haha, I have but I don't like the feel. It is pretty intense though. Sadly, I gave my cousin (that lives out of state) my Shift 2 :/
Tried drifting with the 2011 wrx rwd and didn't like it cause of the rpms it red lines 8 i tunned my gear ratio and only use 2nd gear and it still flutters so much and wont give me the right speed i want
Worked great have the same car it is awesome
Hey i have a sick d1 tune for this car, it's exactly at 650hp i'll send it to you when i get online later.
Thanks bro, sure thing! :)
Dame my tunes are way different i stiffen the back suspension and have the rear tire pressure all the way up and have the caster all the way up its really easy to get the back out
Great video
I love this game I have this game
Awesome :) Thanks bro
C63 AMG is soooooo amazing
I have understood that sport tires are not allowed for tournaments , is that true ?
MORE CLUTCH LESS HOLDING THE GAS TO THE FLOOR
what are all the parts did you use. cant figure which parts to use and what not to use. my 240 i was able to use all my oarts just to make it a high S class
Thanks for the video!
Thanks bro! How's the edit coming?
Thanks haha, she was understanding (;
I just don't like the feel of the Viper :P I'll check it out! :)
Maybe in some tournaments. Not in FMDL.
