Go to a drift day and learn to drive with the stock car first.

Track time. If you have never drifted before you'll be unable to take advantage of any braking or suspension upgrades and you won't have a firm grasp of what you need to drive correctly.

Lower your car first and start drifting like you never drifted before, good luck and happy drifting.

PRACTICE! Don't think about the upgrades you want, the 8 is better stock than a lot of other cars, just practice and get experience!
