I really have to gun it at a corner to get any drift at all. My car handles like it's on rails now! You just need better tires.
No more desire for coilovers?

I keep telling people... better tires give your car more absolute grip; better suspension will let you use a larger proportion of total potential grip (but only if it's set up properly).
