Hi MiRo,

Alot of us use their hachi's daily. Their Toyota's, should say enough

Your main concern is the body, they tent to rust. But if you're importing from Japan, good chance you have a good shell. Just make sure you rustproof it before using it in winter time.

Drive axles brake if you're overdoing it on the drifting. I think they only person here that brakes axles on any sort of regular basis is TE71Corolla.
I definately wouldn't worry about it when you're car is still stock.

Getting TuV approved suspension upgrade for your Hachi probably is going to be a problem. I don't know much about this though..
