Default rs4 evo into drift

i was looking at both of these cars and was trying to figure out how to change my evo into a drifter i already have abs tires and it does pretty good but supposedly the drift version has the engine mounted in the front and a single speed transmission if i get a frame for the drift version can i trasnfr my parts to that and keep my 2 speed all i would need is a rear exhaust (in theory).i already have a t and g3.0 both with pullstart. so if anybody has done this can you give me a few pointers and what else would i need

I would suggest buying an Electric if you wish to drift reliably

You can just get the stage D chassis, and the rear exhaust, order these two parts at your local hobby shop and yo u should be good. I agree about the speed. Ive drifted both electric and nitro. Electrics are good and predictable, easier to get a smooth accurate drift, but nitro drifting is a lot faster and in my opinion more challenging. On top of that it looks more ''scale'' than electric drifting because of the weight and the way the weight transfers as you drift.

Hey, i dont reccomend drifting with a 2 speed because you will bun out theclutch. As you will notice all of HPI's drift ready cars all single speed. Just something to look at

the entire radio/servo/gas tank tray is completely different in these cars, you will need to buy a lot more then just the chassis and exhaust to make it work.
