Try less camber on the front wheels
also try changing to a less grippy tire on the front wheels (maybe even the whole set)
on the aspect of driving you might want to try a bit more throttle
when trying to end a drift, it will ensure more grip from the back-end.
edit: oh and try a less aggressive diff lock settings.
let me know if it helped.

Just a little tune I got but your more than welcome to try it. Put your LSD at 5 5 40 and set your suspension at this RH- -25 -25, SR- 10 10 Dampers- 10 10 Dampers 10 9 anti roll 6 6 Camber 0.00 0.00 And toe all the way negetive in the back. And all the way positve in rear. But make sure like the other guy said my choise of tire would be comfort hards. Set brakes at 0 in front and 10 in the rear and I'm sure your already doing it but be sure and run a manual trany.

Response: Lock that diff like any real drifter would? Camber settings etc are variable because of a person's taste, but diffs should be locked, at all times on GT5, to achieve most realism.

If you're using the DS3 it might be you are not straightening up the front wheels fast enough, causing you to have 'snap oversteer' [correct me if I'm using this incorrectly]. Straighten out faster (even before your car 'looks' like it is lined up).
Reducing camber is just reducing the front wheel grip which would solve the problem but if you don't really want to modify your settings you could just change the way you drive.

The Battle of the Diff Settings!!! Coming to GTP this July! Watch as Gonales puts his tuning reputation on the line against some random guy. Find out if Robbyelder picked the right tree to bark at... Get your tickets now, children get free!!
Ok that was a little mean, but I couldn't resist. I have to say though, that's pretty bold for a GTP newbie to challenge a vet like that...especially with those funky settings lol.

5/5/5 is good for a high power car. But for soncsistent engagement 5/60/60 is best..

Jesus christ, not this again... Dom you gotta stop fighting about what diff settings are better, their personal preference.. And It's a game, stop comparing everything to real life..

+1 👍 Definitely, everyone has their way of tuning, just because it's different doesn't mean it's wrong.

ease on the throttle.. thats how you transition or pull the ebrake again.. no need for complicated setups

All you could ever want to know:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racing_setup (I know Wikipedia isn't the greatest but this is confirmed by myself and many others as correct in 99.9% of all driving scenarios.)

More specifically on LSD:
http://www.nogripracing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10023
I learned how to tune by reading up, using common sense, and taking in all the CORRECT information I could. If you use those and go look at a few real life scenarios you'll be a great tuner in about 3 days
.EDIT: Almost forgot, don't worry about the lingo such as "body roll", "weight distribution", "center of gravity", etc. If you want to learn them like I did go ahead but its not required. In order to learn how to tune just use trial and error. Try to make small tuning adjustments, go drive, and see how it feels/affects the car. Best way to learn in my opinion.
