Wrong, that depends on the corner.

And IMO a drift car doesn’t need a super serious brake set up as it never sees the amount of stress a race car would.

If you are super budget then fresh working stock calipers, with good rotors and catchy pads (hawk HP+ is ok, do not buy HPS they are shit) along with good e-brake cables and it should lock up the rears pretty easily, as well as grab good when you are trying to slow down in mid drift.

If you have a little more to spend, then you can get z32/skyline calipers all around, with ss lines, motul rbf600, a hydro ebrake (cnc staging brake works good) and some light duty project mu pads.
