Default New to drifting

Ok I am new to drifting in the rc world. I have an xxx-s on the way and i wanna know what hop-ups are out there? I have a t-maxx and i would like to match the colors to my t-maxx. Its purple and neon yellow and i would like a purple chassis , neon springs, purple shocks, and whatever else i can do. I plan on changing the motor as well and the car is electric and i wanna know what i can go to without changing esc's just yet. I would like a motor that i could get used to drifting then upgrade to more power and then i will start pushing it to its limits. I would appreciate any tips on drifting, any tips for electrics in general. I am sort of new to electrics. I have owned the cheap electrics but nothing like this so I am sure i will be asking a lot of questions about whats compatible and questions such as that. Thanx in advance Bones.

If the XXX-s is an RTR, why not just start with that? Learn how to drift and then start pimpin' out the car with your hop ups.

I dont think there is really anything you will need to add the car (if it is an RTR) to drift, except drift tires or ABS tires.

So...is the XXX-s car an RTR
