My Car 90% Fixed..

[D_I_F]

Hello ladies

I have finally fixed my car after 8 hours work last night and not getting home til 3am. lots of photos..

Thankyou for everyone who helped.. including mr ed32 friend Gab.. i know it was a real headfu*ck.

what a betterand more affective way to get more traction in the back of my gts-t besides bigger tyres?

[silver gts-t]

better driving would be the best start

[D_I_F]

Fu*k you!

[silver gts-t]

Fu*k you!

what? im serious!

you can get the 12" tyres if you want! if you dont know how to drive your car then nothings saving you

Seriously? You already have an LSD, they are a great start to traction. To get more traction try a different one, like a 1.5 way, or even a 2 way.

But spend the cash on something like this (link below) and know what to do when its wet and your going around a corner again and lose traction

No worries love.... hope u paid gab good

decent tyres will give you better traction, learning to drive it properly, wheel alignment, wider rims, want me to continue?

Hope your driving that thing carefully now

get a proper set of tyres. spending 300 per corner should get you a good set of tyres

[Tosh]

wider doesn't necessarily mean better traction. I drove an R33 GTS-t with 255's on the rear. Then put the STD wheels on for compliance and the 205's had better traction. It's about the tyre, not just the width.

Semi Slick's will give you great traction in the dry but not so much in the wet although they are alot more predictable than street radials

[GoldZilla]

Yeah, what Tosh said: Quality > Quantity.

Just because it's a wider tyre, doesn't mean it will give you better traction. Tyres are definitely THE most important area in which you SHOULD NOT skimp when you make a purchase - ALWAYS buy the best tyres you can afford...

No matter how good your own driving skill, your car's LSD, suspension, brakes and driveline are, they are nothing when those four little contact patches at each corner of your car are the weakest link in the chain!

Why dont you try and install pineapples on your rear cradle ??? it worked wonders for me!!

I'm with the guys that said better driving, forget the rest.

I agree, probably the best $200 I spent on my GST-t. I have a review of my experience >here<

so $200 was just GST

pretty pricey

lol

[benm]

Oops, caught me in the middle of doing my BAS statement, got GST + Tax on the brain

[Moanie]

lol!! just don't drive past your abilities... and learn from your mistakes

[d00dz]

Fu*k you!

lol harsh..

yea get better tyres...... dont skimp on tyres unless u wanna do burn outs

[D_I_F]

yea.. i know.. i dont do that kinda shit anyways..

but 300 a tyre is a bit much..

but i need to get a wheel balance and alignment asap..

[d00dz]

Tyres are the only thing sticking ur car to the road..

$300 a corner is normal, ive seen $450-500.

My fronts are $300 and rears $350 a pop lol But they are awesome!

[shif_tea]

maybe invest in a roll cage too ??
