What to add next?
I was looking at strut tower bars. Are they a useful modification for drifting? Some people use them and others don't. I know having a stiff chassis is key for drifting, but then why wouldn't everyone use them? Is it just personal preference?
Looking to do my next mod, so that's why I'm asking. I've already got coilovers, so I'm either looking at strut bars, sway bars, or a seat/steering wheel. I've got an n/a FC (as most of you know). Opinions are appreciated

Super angle tire rods. Get the ones I got from eyecandy. Pm him here. Also look at the chassis bars on auto RnD site. Tanabe makes em. better for stiffening the chassis the the tower bars.
Or buy my TII hood!!! hahahahaha

2-WAY DIFF!
VLSD sucks dick compared to a 2way. Stop cheating yourself, unless you already have this and I failed to read it.
other than that, id say a good seat and wheel. the s. wheel helped me not smash my turn signal by moving my hands away from the dash/cluster. a seat would also be good because youll be able to focus more on your footwork/steering wheel and the road. You wont be flying all over the inside of the car and trying not to get bruises on your legs and arms

Megan Racing makes decent race bucket seats for $469 or so...they are carbon fibre and they come with mounts.
(most C/F seats are 1000$ +)
Get some steering angle, tie rods, and tie rod ends. 2 Way Diff, Clutch, weight reduction.

Its a steering wheel man. They don't snap or anything. It works fine, my friend had it in his 7, it felt the same as my Momo.(Yes I have momo seats) My friend got an ebay seat for like 200 shipped, I think its flimsy as hell. But it does keep you in secured and fine if you don't plan on entering competition level. Just don't skimp out on quick release. Megan Racing puts like a 6" extension on my wheel. Its the deep dish without the dish!

get a seat bro or save your pennies and get a diff thats what you really need. i just got that exact omp wheel but ebay special with the quick release and the ebay quick release was by far the worst investment i have ever wasted my money on. i beat the **** out of it with a pry bar by the end of the night then just put the new wheel on by itself. wheel is great tho lol.

dont get knock off wheels or quick releases. i heard one guy snapped his steering wheel's quick release countersteering in a drift. Plus the cheap steering wheels feel flimsy, and are not true.. I bought a ebay one before, and it sucks, tehn got a nardi from afriend and OMG mucho betta
