Most of the time guys run two different tires to save money. Usually the rears will be cheaper. Other times, some guys will use different tires for different levels of grip. How much front and rear grip you want really depends on several factors, but it basically comes down to driver preference. Either way, you do want a tire that is predictable when warmed up, gives you the grip and ...

It's not a bad car to start drifting with. If I remember correctly, it's basically a slightly longer 280z (s30). Probably your biggest obstacle with that car will be weight, which is ~2900 lbs. With that said, you can make power with the stock L28, but that thing is a boat anchor. A V8 swap would probably be easier to make power with, and weigh about the same (aluminum ones would be lighter). ...

Sure, you can drift it. Heck, I used to drift my 06 Ranger on occasion just for fun. Since yours is lowered it should be safer to drift than mine was. Bottom line for drifting: -RWD, -enough power to spin the tires, -LSD

LSD, brake pads, brake fluid, clutch. Drift practice does take some space. I can't publicly condone sliding your car on the street, but an empty parking lot in the middle of the night or morning is probably SAFER than around freeway ramps. Try to find a local drift clinic, or a place that has some wet surfaces. Even though speeds will be slower on the wet surfaces, controlling the car is the same...
