Default noob in need of help

I'm a noob to it all. Right now i'm driving a honda del sol but i wanna get into drifting bad. I like the look of the 2nd Gen RX-7. Was wondering if you boys had some points for me on costs i'd be looking at and what all i really need to make a drifter. I want as lil modding as posible for the least price also. Thanx for you time and help.

Tahnx for the help I looked into it with a friend also and found out that its pretty much driftable stock and not a bad option to start off and learn with, expanding my curiousity how hard is it to mantain the rotary engine: i.e. what does it take ?

alot of care.... constantly checking and changing fluids ... i.e.- oil/coolant/etc.( not necessarily changing coolant but u get the jist)
tune-ups... i mean everything you should do to a car "do it"!
www.rx7club.com should have some answers for you... there are more forums but this one should start you off well..
