Spotted!!

The black R34 could have been me. Havent lived in Canberra long but yet to see another black 34. Seen heaps of Skylines around, wish I knew about this thread earlier on.

(since I haven't seen you post before) WELCOME! haha I've seen a couple of black GT-Ts around, though not very frequently at all. We've got a couple of yellow ones, few white ones, few silver ones...not sure what other colour R34s I might have seen around though.

I have gone sideways at a round-a-bout. Needless to say, I did 40km/h the rest of the way home. I'll be curious to know if your revs went to redline which then made your turbo swirl you around more or if you clutched the whole time.

(I hope that made sense, because I don't even know what I said )

turbo swirl

Usually when people get sideways by accident, it's because it's wet and they haven't learnt trottle control in a powerful rear wheel drive car.

My interests quote allows me to look silly !

Given it's wet though, your tires would spin a lot faster (No traction) so your revs would be like shooting up a lot quicker given you'd be accelerating to give you spin (kinda). So when I did it in my non turbo Datsun Stanza with rally spec wheels on the back (Hectic) I red lined in half a second due to no friction to grab the tires still. So, I was wondering what it would be like with a turbo giving all that power to the rear wheels and if you'd spin like a crazy man or what.

I seriously need to go into paint to try and make sense of myself haha.

Edit: I made a great paint drawing to describe what I mean, but work won't let me upload it Lucky the weekend is coming up. I shall bring my paint skills out again

If you accelerate normally or carefully, your tyres shouldn't spin at all.... that's all I'm saying..... it's when people plant it and don't have a lot of experience. Or perhaps if your tyres are total shit lol.

Hahaha YES we need MS paint here!

[Trozzle]

Yeah, as Shell said - your engine will only produce as much power as your right foot allows it to. Not sure if that's what you were getting at though lol

[RosieR34]

Yeah pretty much, but it sounded like Rice panicked or something. I don't know !

Hope this helps to explain what I am trying to explain.

1.

Approaching the round-a-bout.

2.

Cruising along about to hit boost

3.

Hopefully the review mirror helps explain which way you're facing on the road.

So you went too fast round the roundabout and lost traction? Also those have got to be the best paint drawings i have ever seen. 1000 internets to you sir. Made my day.

[Anfanee]

edit: forget that im a f**king retard LOL

HAHAHA best!!!!!!!!

So yeah, just drive normally through a roundabout and you don't have to worry about any of that lol

[RosieR34]

My original question was... would that happen above if you slammed your foot down because of the turbo. (I've only spun a non turbo at a round-a-bout and I spun fairly quick.. I'm imagining how quick your RPM would redline because of the turbo).

I'm so confusing myself again!

[Anfanee]

Honeslty if you loose traction that bad you will redline quickly no matter what you drive. let me take your pictures and show what would happen.

You would bounce off the rev limiter, bounch off the gutter, crap yourself and have a look on your face like this.

I'm guessing Swirl = Spool?
