i use the GT1 all the time, as for most drift cars all you really need to do is lower the spring rate to about 5-10% of their stiffness capacity, also lower the dampers to 3 or 4 all around, camber/toe really don't make a difference if you already know how to drift, soft springs will let your car sway and transition very smoothly, stiffer springs are more likely to give you that "snap back"

Whoa. In mist of my experiences camber makes a big difference in the feel and angle. Rear camber reduces grip in the back end while front camber adds angle but can cause you to spin. Dampers need to be setup fairly firm in most cases ( between 5 and 7). And the roll bar is also important, albeit settings vary a lot from car to car. As for spring rates overall softer suspension will not have as much angle at high speed and sometimes snap back, but won't have a tendency to spin out on low speed corners. Higher spring rates make the car much more stable and easier to Maneuver at speed but very easy to spin in low speed corners. Also in the majority of FR cars the front should be stiffer than the back. Unlike circuit tunes there is no set rift or wrong drift tune, it's all about preference and feel so this should clarify what different things do in a tune.
