i havent had any sucess drifting my awd skyline, its too hard to lose control with it. i can drift my rsx and civic tho, they are both rwd. one has a stage 2 drift, and one has a stock motor.

I have:

Stage 2 Drift motor and gear
4.5 tie rod
Med springs up front
Hard in back
AWD kit
Hard slicks all around

Yah and it also helps to install the tires the right way. Mess around with which ways the tires go on untill you find out which way your car likes the best...

i have found it to be easier to drift with the stock motor than either of the drift motors i drift with my awd skyline but it is much easier on a slick surface such as the garage floor it is also easier to drift with the body off but be cautioned were u are and dont run into anything

i can drift my awd skyline stage 2 drift motor
it make's it easier with awd cuz i kept spinning out easy
i jus put the stock diff. back in an it makes it a true awd
with the awd diff. u could hold the front wheels or rear wheels an the other 2 will spin but it wont do that with a stock diff.
makes the car handle much better

With a 6-cell upgrade drifting becomes easier, using the stage 2 drag engine using the AWD kit. note: I have mine set up with the yellow springs
