Wow, these extensive posts are really informative. Now that you have suggested it, I am considering just getting some coilovers, subframe spacer, strut bars, maybe tension rods, and maybe an lsd. Then as I get more skilled, I will get some more stuff, but as you guys recommended, I will save up, and set money aside for tires and seat time.
You said empty parking lots are a good start, and maybe empty roads out of town too. I could meet up with you guys and go drifting as long as my dad will tolerate it

. Though it's going to be an hour or so up to tampa. I suppose I could find some people locally to go sliding every once in a while

Is the spin turn knob any good? I have noticed it one a few cars, it's supposed to help ebraking. As for intake, what would you guys suggest? I was thinking of a k&n or an aem. As for a basic exaust, I was looking at an EVO 2.
I was thinking about getting an extra set of rims in the distant future so I can carry another set of tires. All I have are the 17's that are on it right now which are only 7.5' wide. I was thinking maybe 8.5-9's's on the rear and putting a 215/50 on it. Stretching the tires are supposed to help I read.
Thanks again, I feel like such a newb
