From what I have read, the S is not set up to drift as those cars you see on TV. There are currently 2-3 S2000 that are on the drifting circuit. From my understanding most of the suspension has been changed out to make the car a bit more unstable so it will drift.
As far as flipping I don't think that is very likely. If speed and angle are correct, the car should stay grounded. However, get some extra money for tires!!
In short the S is not a drifting car, it is a cornering car, let's keep it that way!

It's not a drag car eitherGet a 240sx if you would like to drift. An S13 can be found relatively cheap ( i got mine for $700 on ebay...it needed some stuff, but with a new trans and timing chains, water pump and thermostat, Im into it for about $1250 so far...needs paint). For a reliable inexpensive RWD platform its hard to beat!
