I think you should watch drift bible another 4 -5 more times before you go out again
Or you should invest in a indash dvd player so that you can watch it while you doing it
Ps - I havent even considered drifting yet myself

driving is for street
drifting is for track
if you street drift without many hours practice at a track...
a pavement, and usually a pole or tree...(or in my case a pavement and a palisade fence)
WILL FIND YOU!!!!
its VC's 4th law of physics!!!

even the pro's stuff up now and then, and the track is more forgiving then the road

i told snoob that i've got access to some stock bits...
but he hasn't told me yet exactly which arms he broke.
mine are the ones that are replaced by the kit of six that you would get from D2.
i think they are called the front torsion control arm, the rear upper camber arm, and the rear toe arm.
they are there.

ok its the main front arm that goes to the ball joint that connects to the hub, and at the back its the main wishbone arm that connects to the rear hub and a little arm right at the back that goes on the sub frame?

nope. i dont have those.
you described the front and rear A-arms that are right at the bottom. they have ball joints that connect to the hubs.
and you described the short rear arm, whereas i only have the longer rear arm!
sorry guys. looks like i can't help out here!
Learning curve

Hey Snooby don't feel so bad... if it is any confort for you my learning curve cost R27000 and that was just the main crash
and i was alchol free(Souber)
, i had 2 small ones that just broke my front bumpers
So don't let this take you down bro, as soon your baby is up & running lets burn some more rubber(cos its clear that is cheaper to finish your tires on the dry tarmarc then it is to crash on the rain
)
Keep your head up & don't let anyone tell you i "TOLD YOU SO". because i told you so before
