I love how they make center differential’s for WRX’s that convert it to RWD. I love the idea of not having winter tires and summer tires, but a winter diff and a summer diff!:smash2:

Someone really does make RWD conversion center differentials right? I didn’t just dream that did I?

…I just watched the vid. I swear to God there’s an automotive Darwin, and he just got another notch on his belt.

LOLS. woops… that poor poor car. had the skills to do a RWD conversion but left out the LSD if you want to do one wheel peels why not just drive an old mustang?

I dunno if those tree marks will buff out… should have left the front bumper on first…  
nice vid by the way.

these guys probably werent smart enough to change the center diff and probably just pulled the front driveshafts. and yes… boxers sound awesome bouncing off of the rev limiter.

he could have saved it if he wasnt born so fucking retarded.

if your headed the wrong dirrection and you panic and lock up the brakes YOU FUCKING DESERVE WHAT YOU GET. in this case, the driver in question deserved to eat a tree

he obviously has no drifting talent, he was just trying to look cool by laying on the gas AFTER he was already making the turn. if he realy had any clue he would have actualy been power sliding the corner … not just doing a burnout mid turn

i hope he broke the engine block in half … fucking moron

I always wanted to see what a WRX would be like minus all the fat of the AWD system. Not just disconnecting the diff, but remove EVERYTHING that wouldn’t be needed if it was RWD only. I bet it would be a pretty kick ass little sports sedan.

The nice thing is that it is already a longitudinal layout so it should be better suited to a RWD conversion.

There is a RWD STi running in drift competitions in JApan (F!GP) as well as the Cusco Subaru that runs in JGTC. They make pretty good RWD cars. Check out my gallery for closeups of the JGTC Cusco (GT 300).
