Lesson one, learn not lern.

And yes, what Royal said, DWYB's at pod are probably the best for learning, only thing you might need if you dont have a LSD is a welded diff!

although depends if its a facelift or prefacelift.

prefacelift has an open diff, which is pretty useless for skidding,

facelift has LSD which is ok, but if its getting on a bit, they dont lock up great

either way, welded diff is what you want, million times better

Open diffs suck Dan and you know it. After spending 8 months with one in my sierra I mastered the open diff, and learned to hate it. Then when I got my p100 and supra I thought "hey this is kinda fun" then the novelty wore off on the first night...
