Drifting cars are RWD, civic are FWD. It doesn't work, i see an uproar up ahead.

If you do a RWD conversion, they make damn fine drifters. Not in the same league as 180s and AE86s, but still quite good.

with a lot of work and a rwd conversion they just dont have easily abtainable numbers to be legitimate drift cars

ok good point. after doing my research and reading some of the feedback left on this post, i don't think it'd be worth it to make a civic a drift car, i mean, it'd be nice IF you wouldn't mind doing alot of unecessary work. eh i'd just go after a RWD car. anywho. that's about all.

An older (1988) Honda Civic station wagon AWD comes to mind...

Sorry. That's not drifting; that's e-braking in a circle (I've seen the video). Drifting (by definition) is power-based, hence only for RWD (and the occasionaly AWD) cars. That's not to say you can't compete with drifters in a FWD, but I don't know all the FD regulations.
