Ye thats what I thought

What pulling the handbrake up a notch DOES do is open the diff if you have it locked

I wanted to respond to this yesterday but I was on the iPHone ad couldn't insert the image I wanted. See below. (I don't even have a DCCD and I knew the popcorn would be in order )

You need plenty of hp to drift an awd car, that would be a start

As you can see this is only a WRX std shocks, springs, 5 speed none DCCD gearbox,
a few engine mods running 300bhp when I was doing this, I know the ground is a bit wet,
An Airfield is a perfect place to practice.

My car now has DCCD but I leave it open, mod anti roll bars AST 3 ways, with a 2deg neg camber. It now drifts for toffee.

Go in fast, brake, Scandinavian flick power back on and you should be sorted.

Getting a subaru to drift aint hard. To keep it drifting is more of the problem. I work on a muddy site entrance to work so tend to have a bit of fun there.

Your better off with a s13/14 to start with matey. Good luck tho

you can do it for sure. my mates goes sideways like you wouldn't believe in the dry (standard classic sti with 300bhp and coilovers)
just run budget rear tyres and good quality fronts

note: don't use handbrake while clutch is up

or you could lock the centre diff and drop the front shafts out....
