Softer rear sway bar (or none at all depending on the vehicle) will make the rear tires have more grip. You more drive with the throttle this way than with the steering wheel. Transitions will be slow though, so watch out for that. It also means that response is slowed (due to less grip) which can make catching and maintaining drifts easier. This makes it easier to control through the slide because you don't have to have the tires pointed exactly in the right direction to maintain the slide. The upside is that through the corner, the tires will slide some of the time. Just clutch kick it hard enough and it will slide. This will reduce turn in, which normally would be a bad thing, but if you have enough power, it really doesn't matter too much. Stiffer front sway bar will lower the amount of front end grip. This can help with initiating a slide on slower cars, but can be rather difficult to control through the slide for a new drifter as the front tires will have constant grip almost the whole time. The softer the front sway bar is, the more the front end will want to turn into a corner. mostly on the initiation side of things, but they can be a help through a corner too.
