Is it possible to do drifting in G35 with automatic transmission? I may be wrong but I think manual transmission is required to do drifting...

Sure? I think it'd be easier. Just use the manual mode.

 

manual is easier for the simple reason you can clutch kick and downshift from say 4 to 2 in the flick of the wrist. but i think the future if are dual clutch transmissions as they are extremely fast. but it is possible to drift a AT g35. im talking from experience.

 

Just try it , but make sure your in a big empty space so you dont kill anyone

 

I've tried it in manual mode and it's quite difficult because of the open rear dif.

 

i have vlsd and tried it, it still is difficult even with paddle shifter,

really needs m/t and a real diff

 

I've also done it a few times and yes it's a bit hard becaus of the diff., but definitely doable.


And +1 on doing it on a WIDE OPEN space especially if it's your first time.

 

Perhaps in a Journey, but the Sport models don't have an open diff, they have VLSD. I've found that mine will oversteer just fine, although it would probably be easier to control with more HP.

 

yes....make sure its an open space. you cant put the G back together with tiewraps or bandaids like a 240.lol.

 

viscous diffs suck, but kinda sorta get the job done.

lol@autodrifting.

 

yeah, auto drifting blows, haha

def need a clutch to initiate, for me at least, makes it 1 billion times easier

you can drift with an open diff, but that kinda blows too

 

jeez

 

any more insights on this? I want a 6mt =/

but don'ts gots the money

 

if you want a manual trans and can't afford a g35s, why not just buy a different car?

 

i got an 04 5at coupe, but from what people were telling me, i can't really trade in my car for a cheaper car, and idk its gonna be semi-hard to find another really good condition 6mt like my 5at, single owner and dude baby-ed it like no tomorrow lol and 27k miles
