+1 to drift bible. With stock KA I had good luck with a super crude setup of airing my rear tires up to like 60psi (stock 195/60 tires like to roll), turning coilovers to full stiff in the rear, welding diff and most importantly relax. I'm still a noob too but what I've learned is beginner level drifting is pretty easy once you relax and let the car do the work.

First event I was way too controlling and put every input I could into a drift. I started to do much better when I did those settings I mentioned above and just sat back in my seat firmly and used a bit of weight control and plenty of clutch kicks. I started doing 2nd gear (slow), mild scandinavian flicks with a well timed clutch kick to initiate. Keep your head turned in the direction where you want to go and don't be afraid to let go of the wheel to let it spin around countersteering.
