Check to see if anything is binding. It almost sounds like rather than breaking the tires loose, that it is getting more diff action than it should.

It could be. The camber on that right front wheel is definitely way off from what the left front is showing

That is up to you. I do not do metal upgrades because that will move the point of weakness somewhere else. In this case, likely the shock tower which is more expensive. And metal bends rather than springing back. I would stick with stock.

Yes, in order to get the car to drift the same one way as the other, it does need a symmetrical suspension setup. If you can get stock replacement parts, that is what I would suggest. If metal is all you can get, and you are aware of the risks, then that may be your only option.
