New to the site...

Hi im new to the site and just wanted to tell a lil about myself, and say hi...

Im Paul, i currently drive a 98 Saturn SL2 for my dd, and will be in the market soon for a semi afrodable RWD... im not realy a total newb when it comes to drifting but im just starting to realy pursue it as it is what i love to do, and is the only thing that i have total confedence in myself that i know i can be good at it... i live in Shelby, MI and plan on moving out to SoCal in the next Year...

Have any suggestions on what is the best way to get started(like what kind of car would be the best on a budget, but still have alot of potencial in the future)

and HI to all ...

yeah, the silvia is the s13, its just a generation. the difference is that in japan they have the turbo SR motors and in america we have the NA KA24de engines. in america our 200sx is really a 2-door sentra.
