guys

it was drizzlin' a little yesterday. Was driving the car and as i exited the round-a-bout, i gently tapped the accelerator. Now,the bloody tail just slipped .I am getting annoyed with this cause i am only doing like 20km/h.

What do you think is bloody wrong?

running very good tyres on the ride (Bridgestone Potenza Re01s all four) with 70% tread.

HELP!

Does this happen in the dry also??

Maybe your tyres have to much pressure in them ie its very hard..

well it happens in the dry only if i go quick.

my tyres on the front are 39psi whilst the rears are 34psi (set accurately cause i have a michelin digital gauge).

Any ideas?

HELP!!!!

Might be useless in this post but on Sunday when it was wet I had 3 people in the car (including me) and I floored it past 6000 RPM and my ass didnt even step out... i got a rear strut and nearly new Pirelli P6s...

well my car has the rear strut and front stabiliser.

Just keep the pedal into it and apply some opposite lock coming out of the corner ;)

I find that in my car as soon as it hits boost in 1st or 2nd gears in the wet it just goes nuts. Also remember it really does depend on what mods you are running on your car as well. Power increase mods obviously get the tail snapping easy. Suspension mods such as coilovers, harder springs/struts will also have a large impact on it as well.

Having three people in the car also probably gives the car less chance of stepping out anyway. More weight over the rear wheels. Also depends if you were coming out of a corner or flooring it down a straight.

why you runnin so much pressure??

keep it around 30-32 at most.. Try that and see if it works..

I have a feelin its your tyres..

dude i will try that ;)

as i recall the skylines are to run higher pressure on front tyres because of the engine putting more weight on the car... any thoughts?

waht do you mean??

basically the rear shocks were leaking, and had lost their "shockability".... causing the rear to float allover the road, espescially around corners... and i thought it was my hicas unit playing funny buggers...lol

are u sure your not dialing up 6000rpm in 2nd gear then dropping the clutch out of the roundabout?

u must be giving that right pedal a bit of carpet action to get the ass out so easily. i have heard stories of shagged shocks attributing to this though.

I was in the wet, with 3 guys in the car including me, was turning right at the lights, took off normally in first when i hit 3000rpm the turbo kicked in and it tailed out, i wasn't doing more than 20kmph myself.

Sounds normal to me :)

How tight was this "roundabout"?

I have similar mods and I have trouble in my R32 with it. Although I do have coilovers :) If its still annoying you just hit third gear instead. I don't think there is anything wrong with your car at all. Just enjoy the nature of a RWD turbo :D

hmmmm yeah but when you slow down, the revs are too low for 3rd gear...

if this is part and parcel of the RWD turbo behaviour then it's fine. I am into learning it.

      Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.

      I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it

      If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣

      I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.

      Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
