need help with Drifting set up

[Joel0201]

Hey guys i have a r31 skyline and i have just started to get into drifting.

I have done one skid pan event with it which i enjoyed. 

i have coil overs all round and a locked diff

I need some questions from you guys about general stuff

Ok so i need some Tyre tips:

Wheres a good place where to get a good front Tyre in Vic 

and what tires are a good base for a entry level setup, i was thinking the federal 595? im not to sure.

as for the rears where do you guys get your cheaper rear tires? 

also where do you guys buy your drift components in Australia like (hydro handbrakes, lock kits and other fun stuff)

I used to use achilles 123’s then went to kuhmo KU31 or KU36 up front as steer tyres. Ran some china tyres up front over the weekend and they worked great. 

No idea about tyre suppliers in vic. I usually ebay mine unless there is a matsuri special on. 

Gktech or PBM have some decent gear. You might struggle to find much front end wise for an R31 aside from lock washers/spacers. If i was staying R31 i’d do an s13 front suspension swap.
