put on electrical tape on front and back and use the 4 wheel drive trust me it works

does the electrical tape work on any surface to drift on or only certain ones?

If you turn harder one direction than the other, center the servo as per the numerous available instructions.

No i gotta 350z only upgrades i have are suspension and motor

jus get stage 2 road course motor one wit high hp balanced torque and hard suspension in the front and medium in the back. i dun need water or tape or anything when i do this.

no he means it turns left better than right, or vise versa

Mine did too, till I centered the servo. Might also be due to damage to the steering knuckle, suspension, tirerods, a number of things.

just use the stock motors and gears, with rear wheel drive, and soft suspension in rear, and hard suspension on front. Use the hard treaded tires in rear and the soft slicks in front.

personally the stock batteries suck. li-ions are the way. they supply the needed power to break the tires loose and yes the AWD is the way to go

If you're gonna drift with RWD, you'll still need tape on all four tires. The drift kit sounds good, but I think it's a little expensive for what it is. AWD is great for drifting, but if you really want to learn, go with RWD.

drift kit with awd drive is for reel drifting. donuts isn't drifting...
