Drifting Suspension

I own 86 FC, dropping in 13BT, already got the Tein Flex Suspension System, any suggestions of what else I would need?

First fix any broken or worn items.

Here is my suggestion for mods and in this order:
1. Polyuerthane bushing kit ( With a 19 year car, I am sure yours are shot.)
2. DTSS Eliminators
3. Rear Camber adjuster
4. Front and rear strut bars
5. SuperNow! Super angle kit (increases steering angle 7 degrees, and removes bumpsteer)
6. LSD (Clutch type, if you do not have one)
7. Sway Bars/endlinks (should be done last since they tend to complament the previous mods)

You want to lower the rear of the car with your flex's. If you do not have much power then run Front 2 degrees camber, no toe; Rear no toe, and no camber. Once you get more power you can start to increase the rear camber and add a slight bit of toe.

Get the car running before bothering with the suspension...
