Looks like fun. Is that ok for the car? Diffs and all? What if the pavement was dry?

Your driving a highly engineered rally car. I think skidding around was part of the plan. Now if you do break something don't blame it on me

more of a tire thrasher than anything. Motor, diff, trans are all working just as hard as if you were in a straight line... just buy some junkyard tires and have hours of fun

Awesome, some of the most fun I've ever had at work was testing VSA/ABS function on a basalt low mu pad at our testing facility.....but thats because it was warm, ice and snow packed VDA's are fun too, but cold.

From hearing what language they're speaking (definitely doesn't sound English) and I think I see RHD, it's stock 8 tails, untouched (either JDM or EDM). The US gets these same tails without the amber. You can have a tint shop tint it for you if you buy the tint off eBay or something and give them whatever you bought for them to install it.
