M52 power enough for drift machine

[Hopchop]

I know drifting an E30 may not be to everyones taste but just wondering is the power output of an M52 adequate for a drift machine from anyones experience on here?

yes it will go just fine.
there are a few 318iS's in the local drift series where i am at the moment.

A 318is in the dry, that must be hard work and some good driving

I assume a hydraulic handbrake is essential for starting the drift, I wonder what the best mounting position is?

[age]

no its not essential, its more of a crutch for people who cant get the other techniques.
the best position is between the steering wheel and the gearstick.
