So aside from LSD and basic Suspension what should I do to my FB I want to turn in to a purpose drift car.



So on NoPistons drifts FBs?



As of now I'm planning on FC front Sub Fame swap so i can get FC front suspension and I'm planning to do the GSL-SE rear end swap with a KAAZ 2 way LSD and Moser Axels.



For now I'll use the GSL LSD I have in the car.



Also I'm planning on using FC front coilovers and RESpeeds Rear spring adjusters w/ Tokico Illuminas 5 way adjustable struts



I'd like to modify the FC steering column with a quicker ratio.



Is there anything else people would recommend so I'll have less trouble sliding my FB?

Im building a drift FB allso and was considering a FC front end swap but i checked out a place called, kiwi re.

they have an fb subframe with a rack and pinion fabricated on it.check iut out it seems like an easy conversion.

bit easier than the full FC front end swap.

my old car was setup like this



eibach springs, illumina's, RB streetport system, aluminum flywheel, aside from that it was stock gsl-se



it was really well balanced, and with a good driver you could basically do drifts, figure 8's etc etc



the driver is pretty key in any setup, a good driver can drift anything



i think the FC subframe might be good, as it offers better steering, and putting more power in is easier too, which is good
