I'm not into drifting but I believe not having to compensate loss traction via use of LSD would, theoritically, be advantageous for drifting?

It's not hard to swap in an LSD. The RX7 can be a year around car or you could keep it & buy a daily driver. On pedal pressure I tell you what I have used a few different clutches on my various 7's & other cars I have worked on. My Exedy pucked clutch was a lot stiffer then then the Centerforce DF, Clutchmasters stage 3 & The Racing Beat street/strip. I had a twin plate Quartermaster but it was chattery & definitely stiff, was not fun to drive in town.

BTW I see that all the cars you listed were AWD, have fun with drivetrain work.

Speaking from experience Subies & DSM's can be fun but they do have their problems.

Are there lights in the lenses on the sides of the bumpers or are they just orange lenses?
