Buy and install a limited slip differential if it doesn't already have one. I don't recommend S15 front end. Do 97-98 front end.

Anything wider would probably give you more grip. Make sure it's a nice low offset as well.

First, get some sticky tires. Second, LSD if not already equipped. Third, don't dump the clutch or hammer the throttle slip the clutch a tad more and roll into the throttle.
