take that 1600 and save for a sr swap,( I would). Megans arnt that bad my friend just bought some, he swears by them. but yeah if you want to drift start with suspension then motor,A cheap and good setup would be something like, coilovers,front and rear sway bars,strut bars front and rear then bushing swap, but then again you also want to make sure your car is in tip top condition. Also a good set of front tires!
Do it the right way, not the rice way.

I think you should start with suspension, it's just the proper way of doing things I guess. I'm still newb to this stuff and have no personal experience with types of suspension but I've been browsing the phase 2 motortrend site for a couple days now, they got some good suspension kits.

I persoanlly like those...I guess cause they look nice. lol They also got megans there, if you're a a daily driver and drifter I guess these might be good for you?

Megan Racing Street Coilover S13/S14

Tein also has a Super Drift Coilover thats on the site as well

just trying to help out, so hope my input was worth your time

i would get the kts coilovers. and you will have some money left over & you could prob get a vlsd & half-shafts with the rest. but if it were me and i was going to drift and beat on it, i would do all of my maintenece stuff first. also mayb get a lower temp thermo if your gonna b at the track often.
