Funny you mentioned that, I'm getting my passenger front bearing replaced right now. Happened while drifting but I think it was from the wheel dipping off track and then hitting the asphalt hard when it went back on

Someone should start a thread with drifting videos! Of course in a closed safe space. I attempted to try in an empty parking lot, but for some reason I thought doing too much could give stress/damage to lsd. Anyone can chime in?

There was one guy who posted vids of him drifting in a parking lot but he got busted for endangering the public and had to sell his car due to skyrocketing insurance rates. Someone from Minnesota bought it and called it 5000 lightly used miles. I guess he did not see the videos.

Moral of the story? Be careful where you drift and check to see who is watching.

Ahh that sucks! I'm actually interested in drifting the BRZ but I have this weird paranoia about the wheel bearings.

Drifting breaks shit. Full stop, end of story. But the hit I took was enough to bend my wheel as well so verry likely the bearing bust was from that.
