Rwd-boxer raven (drift and autox)

Have had the car for a bit
Took the car to Kms to drift and found it needed a mod or two before it would be "driftable". I also autocross with my locale car club so many mods I will do are for handling.

What mod are you considering that would make the car more driftable?

Modified knuckles is my first step
For more steering angle and more power would help

I had to go up about a 1/2 inch yesterday it settled lower and I could drive but I would scrape on speed bumps and railroads. Now it's perfect height and I did a at home alignment
