You will need a suspension set up that will allow you to "slide", an LSD rear with proper gearing for the GE powerband (4.30), w58 manual swap w/ a good clutch (not neccessary,autos can drift too) I dont recommend the turbo trans it is VERY HEAVY, MK3 steering absolutely sucks for this type of driving but can be "helped" with tie rod spacers and other remedies, and most important before doing ANY BPU's be sure that ALL maintenace is up to date.
Or you can just go out and practice until you break it, fix it, practice until something else breaks, fix it and so on. Eventually you will find and fix all the weak points of the car while getting used to it... or better yet sell it and get an S13 or ae86 for drifting. Supras CAN drift but are GT cars at heart. If you drive it as it was built to drive, you will fall in love with it because there really is no other car like it (in this price range). Just an opinion, good luck with your supra.
