Talking Any miata drifters out there?

I just got my first miata and I'm interested in seeing some setups. Any useful info is greatly appreciated, I was also wondering if anyone has any action shots or pics of their "purpose built miatas". Thanks guys.

my dad and I have had a 99 miata with a few simple things, coil overs and a diff and headers for the most part, im 15 and Ive only been drifting it for a few months and i like it, Ive never got the chance to slide anything else, so i dont know how " underpowered and hard to slide it is" haha but my dad and are are about to swap in a 1uz toyota v8 in it haha it will never be underpowered again

I want to do a 13b-t or an REW Swap in mine soon, just need to find the time. Haha

I remember back in the day Mark driving the SR powered miata at dday2. See if Mars302 has any photos around or vids. That thing was nasty...
