there are a few ways but I will put the disclamer in first. THIS IS NOT SAFE. Ok now that thats out of the way. the cheapest way is to lower the tire pressur. Another way to do it is to get a way to big rear spaybar. Might I ask why.

I want to keep the car as standard as possible, dont want to add any mods!!

Dont worry abt disclaimers, i have either a gravel carpark or tarmac car park to choose from to get some sideways action

On gravel, getting sideways is a joke. and I guess you could always use your parking brake.

another technice for getting it to understear is to get on the brakes resonably hard ( not to the floor but uncomfortable to most) and put the car into a turn at the same time. If it doens't brake the first time, try again but as you are slightly into the turn with the brakes on turn the wheel farther and harder. if the car starts pushing then you aren't on the brakes hard enough. After it brakes loose turn the wheel all the way into the turn. I'm guessing you can get 180 degrees out of it.
