I'm currently running
Infini front upper strut bar
S4 NA LSD rearend w/ 200k on it(blown out)
Tokico Blues with stock springs

I drift this setup just fine. My clutch is bad so I'm stuck doing 2nd gear power over but it rips through fine. I love the Tokico blues. great genreal use strut.

As of Friday I will have
Cusco front lower strut bar
S4 TII lsd rearend
MMR solid rear diff mount
MMR delrin rear control arm bushings
MMR delrin front control arm bushings
MMR delrin DTSS replacement bushings

and maybe Hockey puck tranny mounts since I didn't order those yet and may have to fab them.

Then next week I will have Ksport Kontrol Pro's but won't have them installed in time for my next event.

Currie enterprises Ford 9" housing, thats my suggestion. Youve already bought so much in parts, not to mention how long it has taken to put it all together...do you really want to break axles or ring gears when you use it the first time?

Besides, the ford 9" has all kinds of ring and pinion available...easy to change ratio.

Got the Ksports on and WOW. Sooooo much easier to throw the car around and hold angles without snap over steer.

I would have been waaaay better if I had these on for the drift event. Although the tokico and eibachs in the rear did a good job.

The FC right now is sitting on Tein (I hate Tein) drift spec I think (I didnt buy em). I have delrin DTSS elims and rear lca bushings but they havent been installed yet.
why did you hate them? I have them with eibach pro kit and mine are awesome.
