Drift setup, choices on a budget

[danielvanderwoude]

I would say make it stage 0 first. Meaning all fluids and filters replaced, fresh ignition parts etc and get some new (upgraded) brakes and brake lines. Replacing/upgrading bushings is a very good idea.

You absoluteley don`t need coilovers so find a cheaper suspension setup from a good manufacturer. But I am not sure if it is availeble for the sr5. BTW is there a strut difference between ae85 and ae86? Don`t buy 15inch and/or wide tires because then you wil need more HP. I believe that you learn to drift better with a "slow" car. Instead of powersliding you will need to drift on handling, shifting weights etc. Stripping your car is the cheapest and effective tuning but maybe not a good idea if you want to use it as a daily.
