shocks and lowering springs are ok. but theyre more just for looks. in my opinion, theyre too soft, and they dont lower anywhere near enough. plus they dont give you any adjustability, which is damn nice. trust us, just do it right the first time, if you dont youll regret it, most of us have made that mistake 239847293 times. if you seriously want to drift, dont go cheap on the suspension, its the most important part.

Upgrade the tension rod bushings. If you have the stock ones, they will go out pretty soon.
AmericanEngineering sell the EnergySuspension urathane bushing for $35. I also have one that i bought from them, but i never installed it. It's still in the unopened bag, I'll sell them for what i bought, $35
Or get those balljoint tension rods, they go for around $200.
