Or is it similar to this?
http://www.gtrmod.com/HKS-R35-GT570-...4033-an001.htm

If it's one from 2nd site than, HKS clearly does not warrant the car at all what's so ever, no?

It's the HKS GT600 kit...and yeah HKS doesn't warranty that kit...it's basically BPU so nothing too crazy about it...no tune just bolt on parts...

Fun videos, thanks for posting!

Being an avid drag racer back in my DSM days in Ohio, I can tell you in a drag race you only have to look at your 60' slip time to see if you are getting a good launch. Most AWD cars have a huge advantage. A good 60' slip time for a professional is around 1.6, you guys did really well getting that 1.966 and 1.969. Even the 2.0 is really good showing good traction for both cars.

I've seen a lot of newbies get like 2.6xx in the 60' slips and that's normal for a beginners so you guys really got some good launches
