not very knowledgeable, but if you are looking for cars in SG's 2nd hand market, here are an additional few:
Nissan 180/200SX, even though slightly related to the Silvias
Toyota Altezza, dunno SG have or not?
AE86s are quite hard to find.
above are a few i've seen in D1. There are many more not in production/not found in SG, so like nightsky87 said, not worth mentioning.
hope this helps....

Actually you need to do some Modifications to the gear diff, and mount lsd,
Also stiffen chassis and adjust the rear stiffness (anti-roll) , Coil-over Suspension.
Lots of tires to change, and a fat wallet to buffer.
Otherwise, it is cheaper to buy a (Go-Kart) or pay to drift the Go-kart at the circuit.

yes you are right, and i dunno how much the sport will cost, haha.Imo, i would rather buy a car that is track-proven, so that advice/set-ups can be easily found and done. Plus, it's hard to find FR cars nowadays, cos it's not mechanically-friendly and hence not economical to produce.
if you are concerned about the cost, can try going for the MR-S or Silvias (2nd hand) or 180SX (2nd hand). MR-S stopped production liao, according to wikipedia, dunno about its availability. these 3 should be cheaper than new RX-8s and S2000s.
all the best, you going competitive? SG got drifting circuits?

I remember seeing drifting events at kallang stadium.And I've been to Seattle USA for a really small drifting event on the tracks. It was interesting to watch and the boys are really nice chaps.
I was nostalgic about the Drifting and its unlikely I can manage a steering wheel again. I drifted my little kup kia and broke my wrist.
