i like this thread a lot. Im gonna plan on drifting my 2010 Base model Z so i want a kinda stiff set up. body roll is garbage when snapping the rear end out of a drift and into another direction. Are the Swift springs stiff enough in corners? or should i look at a coilover kit. cause im leaning more towards somethin more legit than springs. how do u guys feel about something like this? the sport spec set up sounds stiff enough in the rear for me

i'm no expert, but if you're drifting and need a stiff setup to do so, then i think you're defenitely in coilover territory.

To add to what advice others have given you, you will not be able to drift at all without getting a limited slip differential since you have the base Z. The two best streetable LSDs that I have seen are the OS Giken and the Quaife differentials and install into the base differential with zero modifications.
