    Most 240 owners (not me) enjoy something (like balls) slapping their ass. This just gives them that sensation when they are driving like a fucking retard every god damn place they fucking go.

    animal draggers FOR LYFEEEEEEE


    nah but for real, i found a keychain and put it on, and i thought it was funny so i kept it. the cops love it too. In the PS2 Game Tokyo Drift, its labeled as a "Drift Charm" so I'm guessing its a Japanese fad turned American.

    I had one on my KA-T before Tokyo Drift came out, I thought it was hilarious, something I saw on NICO back before I had my license. Some people go all out and have like Real life Porcupines and shit dragging, I thought about it, but it would be funny for a week, until the smell hits me when I go into reverse

    i found this:

    "This trend was made popular by the drift scene, but drifter Ernie Fixmer (who spent time in Japan serving the US military) said that anyone who runs touge has a character hanging off the back of the car for good luck."

    apparently that guy has a sponge bob or something...

    I've never hung anything, and I don't like Honda badges on Acura's unless they're from fucking Japan.

    Maybe I'm the odd Acura driver?

    See, what happens is when you turn, the extra weight of the 'charm' slings out like a skiier on a boat and helps the rear turn.

    Understeer vanish like ninja!

    why do you call your 240sx a KA-T.

    that's a rough version of an engine code.. stop it.

    just call it your old 240 or other car.
