Stay clear of the MK3 Supra they are heavy. 240SX's, RX7's & AE86's would be good choices for drifting.

BTW you are 20 & still in Highschool?

Is the clutch fluid unde the hood top left resivoir? My car wouldnt go into gear for a while then my car rolled forward a little and my hand on the shifter dropped into gear... Also my friend got in my car when it was off and said i have no clutch n it barely engages..? Also when i hold the clutch pedal down when the cars running sometimes i hear a rattling noise kinda sounds likea cross with a tiny bit of screetching and change moving around in your pocket

The reservoir is the little container mounted on the master cylinder with the line running to the slave cylinder on your trans.

You may have a bad release bearing, which you would need to drop the trans to access.

If you were to use synthetic oil, Royal Purple would be fine or Idemetsu.

It's the container on the clutch master cylinder not the one on the brake booster. Should say on the cap, do you have a shop manual or the owners manual in the glove box? Pretty easy to figure things out with them.

Idk, i found a cylender shapped resevoir at the top right where i said n the cap said dot 3 only, and the resevoir was empty. my clutch didnt have much resistance at all and i barely made it to school, i asked my friend if he had clutch oil n he said brake fluid is the same and the cap said dot 3 which brake fluid says so by the time i got to school i barely made it, my clutch just was sinking to the floor n would sometimes stick, after skool i filled the resevoir and played with my clutch and got resistance back thank god.

Brake fluid is perfectly fine in the clutch system.
