I'm not drifter, but I have slid a few corners. From what I hear, the firmer the suspension the better. If you're serious about drifting and not concerned as much with tire wear, I'd ditch the factory Limited-slip (Trac Lock) for a full locker. As for tires, I'd find some cheap ones while you're learning.

Well Steeda is a good place to start, but I always recommend not to combine racing and daily driver. I havent seen many new edges used for drifting but I think the champ now is running an 05.

Default RE: drift anyone

mine is being set up similarly for drift so aside from my sig, this is whats going into it.

Maximum motorsports torque arm package - torque arm, panhard bar, lower control arms

my race only tire set are nitto NT1 255/17/40

if your going to be drifting id suggest a 255 tire size @ 17 inches

you need really really stiff springs and adjustable shocks (coil over or very high spring rate) if you go high spring rate car is going to SUCK at street driving.

eaton LSD would be a good upgrade along with 4.10s or 4.30s if you sticking to a stock engine.

I would personally leave lsd or any other drugs out of drifting a car.[sm=outcold.gif]
