Masatoshi Asamoto's Oragne FD

If any of you guys (or gals) are into drifting, you may have seen a video on the internet by Advan, in which Taniguchi, Ueno, and the members of team orange are drifting on some new Adban Neova Tires to test them out. Anyway, asamoto is driving his sick FD and the exhaust and blow-off valve on that car are just ridiculus!!! I could only dream to have my car sound like that when its done. But i was wondering if anyone knew which exhaust he had on the car. All i know right now is that he has a Blitz turbo kit with a custom V-Mount setup. If you have any info on the BOV or the exhaust lemme know Thanks!!

How to save the file

Most files can be saved in WMP if when you finish loading the streaming file you go to file and then save file. . . . If not there is a program called stream down by a company called CoCSoft that you can use to save the file to your hard drive. The one you get on the internet is a trial version but i am sure you can find a key generator for it somewhere online. And by the way i have over 20 GB of amazing drift videos (lots of FD's) if any one is interested . . .

Any body guys know if this is the tool that would get the fenders flared out that much? Or is it more hand hammering work? Love the sound of the FD missle

Interesting video. Why don't we see any other cars on the track at the same time? Time trails? Also how do you win?

I think it is a subjective scoring system, like figure skating there are judges.

Are you sure? do you know what kind they are if they are flares? They look like that Vertek kit i think it is that the apex car had/has on it. i'll try to find their info.

It seemed like a bit extreme of a roll to me as well for a normal tool.

Kevin- I think this was a promo shoot for the new tire that they were all using. so not really being scored i don't think.

Anyone else notice the squeaky carbon breaks on that green RE car? Not too mention the lack of drift. Even though it was the same driver as in the earlier S15 i think
