handbrake or shifting the weight is the easiest you can clutch kick it but unless you have a feirce cluth youll keep eating them .then if the clutch is up to it youll start to wear drif shafts boxs and mounts | |

drop it to 2nd entering a corner accelerator down, push the clutch in and release
i never owned a rwd car, but the buddy left me drive his 180sx
it was wet with a very open corner, so i had a go
it was pretty good too
i guess that was beginners luck

Very easy to get the rear of the W8 out.
ESP off, 2nd gear with revs above 4k/rpm - big sharp turn in and gas it - making sure your very ready to catch it!

Oh indeed it does
I got stopped by a chap at our local BP after filling up last week asking "what the hell I had in that car". Exhaust was done with quality in mind - so its not mega loud, but its got a very destinct racey sound.

I've made my exhaust pretty much myself. It's got a standard manifold "for now" Custom de-cat pipe, Standard middle section, And custom rear box. It's not all stainless but it was just a quick custom build exhaust an it does sound great. On idle it burbles like a turbo it's great. I will be ugrading next year though... Can't beat a good sounding exhaust system..
