I don't really see why one would be harder than the other. They are about the same.

LoL, they are definitly RWD, like 240sx is one of the best stock drifting cars you can buy- and in Japan the silvia is like the Fbody popularity wise. Its got a huge following. To me the fun would be to see someone with a Jspec s14 with a turbo 4 ( here thats the cool swap to do ) and have swaped in the ls1 =)
