So your telling me your car will go strait and is totaly controlable up to 150mph when your full on ***** to the walls, pedel to the metal, throttle position sensor reading 5volts out put, wastgate wide open and you car won't go sidways and try to kill you???



O' Nitto's actually kick *** in the rain by the way... they look like they would suck due to there being almost no tread depth when they are new... but they actually ******* rule in the rain.. Me and my friends were very surprised... It rains a lot in Okinawa too and is super slipery due to the coral dust and salt off the ocean and the shitty japanese concrete doesn't help..

Top of 2-3-4 th gears. full straight line acceleration, just like a drag race. I've also scored 1.94-2.0 60' times with my Yoko's........HHHmmmm maybe we just know what we're doing in Texas.
about how much power do you think your pushing? I can slow on accelerate in 2nd gear rolling at 30-40 kph and when the boost comes on I can break my 315/35/17 Nitto 555R's completly loose, but at least they will still propel the car forward instead of trying to put it in a flat spin like every street tire that has ever been on my car..
