2-way LSD or welded diff if you're on a budget, that's the number 1 mod you can do. Good front tyres make drifting easier too but they aren't absolutely necessary.
If you're looking for ideas, lowered/stiffened suspension makes learning a little easier (you can chop standard springs if it's legal in CA and money is tight). Rack spacers should be cheap or you can make your own with some washers. A bucket seat that holds you tight will save you a lot of hassle when you're at a practise day. Stripping out weight is always useful, and free!
After that it's just a question of budget, you could spend six figures on an S13 if you wanted but there's one component you can't change, the driver.
Seat time is king, as long as you're driving the car you're getting better, and spending money learning skills is way more effective than spending money buying parts. Do a few cheap mods and then practise until you know they are holding you back. Then do another mod and practise more.
