Drift oriented suspension setups?
 
So I came to this car from a non m e46, I had HkS Hipermax coilovers, turner flcabs, no rear sway bar, and a welded 3.46 diff. I constantly kicked the clutch to stay sideways and I feel the frs is just as bad. Anyone tried running no front sway bar? I spoke with a friend and he felt that would help. My car is all stock other than powered by max coilovers And a Perrin catback

what tires are you running

drift: to loosen the ass end stiffen it! to tighten the ass stiffen the front end

Super jelly of your coils. I have my sway bar unlinked in the front and I don't know If I'd recommend it. What's your alignment look like?

Mine is 0* toe all around
Maxed the camber at -5.8* in the front for max caster
Rear camber at -1.0*

Also you need to drive faster

Without the front sway bar, what kind of differences do you feel?

speculation:
I'd imagine that weight shift (roll/dive) is more dramatic... as is the tail kick at the limit. Less predictable, but still not obnoxious.

personally the car is super predictable. I wouldn't do it on a softer suspension stock car though.
