hey guys..
i've got a vr4..
now im looking for a rwd..
basically my vr4 will be the drag car.. it will hopefully run a low 11 by next year..
but as a daily driver i've got a rwd mazda 929, i love the rwd's when its wet!! so much fun!
anyways.. i wouldn't mind giving drifting a shot.. and i want to stick with mitsu so i though why not starion?
anyways.. how good is the availability for parts ? body ? diffs etc etc
is it a good drift car?.. how heavy are they?
i've always like the look.. maybe i can drop im my 4g63 out of the vr4 later down the track if i get sick of the vr4..
anyways.. any help is appreciated!!
also what price should i be expecting to pay for a good condition one..

awd gets boring at times..
sideways = fun..
especially in wet sloshy melbourne..
do they have any problems with diffs? tail shafts etc?
spend?.. not sure as what are they worth?..
im just thinking - exhaust / intercooler / turbo / suspension

the suspension is stiff as too, it was a huge struggle for me to push the front strut down at all.

the JCs didnt exist, the idea of having a JC was crucified as soon as somebody brought it up.
