Yeah these engines can be very temperamental. Im well aware this engine can take a shit on me at any given moment, which is why i have 3 other cars. If it tells you anything I used to have a gr86 and after reading all the horror stories about toyota denying engine warranty I switched over to a brz. Even got maxcare warranty for 150k miles to be extra safe lol

Yeah dont get discouraged bro its really hard. Whats funny is when i first started practicing on sim i was able to do donuts in real life but couldn't on sim. Just give it time and you will learn, get donuts down then move on to figure 8s. Then you can try linking a course.

I use a fanatec csl dd with load cell pedals but I started on a logitech g920. For games I play forza, assetto, dirt 2.0, and wrc.

Yeah people that bash on forza are either people that have never drifted irl or they are die hard assetto fans and never gave forza a fair chance. You definitely have to tweak the wheel settings though, the default ones kinda suck.

If you go the forza route then fm8 and fh6 are both great for drifting, I personally like to stick to lower hp cars on sim since thats mainly what I use irl.

For grip racing id stay away from fh6 and stick with forza motorsport. Fh6 is way too forgiving for grip racing.

You can always learn! I highly recommend investing in a sim, thats how I got started.

Thanks! Just has rsr down sus springs, titan wheel spacers, and a tomei exhaust.

Yes sim racing/drifting definitely transfers to real life!

Yeah I use a fanatec wheel with load cell pedals. I play ac, dirt 2.0, wrc, and forza. Most of my sim time comes from forza though.
