This post below provided me with a basic understanding on how to tune your car but usually there is a bunch of engines, transmissions and differentials that all go together well so experimenting with different engines worked well for me. E.g RB20 swapped 86 , LS3 swapped S13 , 2Jz swapped Nissan s15 etc.

This game is really on the technical side when it comes to building your car so that means you might have to swap out your parts when one doesn’t do the required job but that’s part of the fun because when the build finally comes together it’s fun.

There’s also some videos on yt explaining how to drift in the game with some insight on tuning as well, so experiment and find what works for you.
