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

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 |

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.
