This Hilarious PVC Pipe Mod Turns $300 Kei Cars Into Drift Kings

If the concept of tray drifting is just too mainstream for you, here’s a quirky new fad emerging in Japan that might interest you.

As shown in this video from Noriyaro, a group of drifters usually known for sliding around in Toyota AE86s have bought a bunch of circa-$300 kei cars, and wrapped the rear tyres in small sections of PVC pipe. Goodbye rear-end grip, hello hilarious low-speed drift shenanigans.

It’s cheap, effective and looks like serious fun. Some of the cars even have water spray system that keeps the PVC sections cool, preventing them from over-heating and cracking. It’s a clever form of tomfoolery, this.

Anyone else fancy giving this a go…?
