Donuts - Who's Using Them??

[Jay95R33]

So who has ventured out and bought some donuts?

Not the iced type, but the ones to stop axle tramp?

I'm after some before/after comments. I've 'heard' that you sacrifice lateral traction (cornering) for forwards traction.

Is this true?

Thanks guys

they just stop the rear subframe from moving, keeps the rear suspension more stable. I can still get axle tramp with them though but you dont loose any grip.

Cool,

So has your axletramp reduced, or is it less prone to axle tramp?

And have you noticed any reduction in lateral grip at all???

Soooooooooooo many questions

not really sure on the axle tramp, but it still does it.

No reduction in lateral grip.

Donuts mmmmmmmm *drools*

I find that donuts make me fat hence I have a higher level of traction, but sacrifice some acceleration.

Do the affect burnouts? Are they more difficult with these things?

I've got the whiteline kit (well only the back half is installed cause I'm a bit slack). Part no. is KCA349 bout $104 from memory from your local whiteline agent.

Recently they assisted my clunker to do a 13.8 1/4. with 8psi of boost / 100kgs in the boot /cheapo 205 tyres and a 90,000km old stock clutch.

oops sorry you asked about 'stopping' axle tramp. Well they actually cause it in the configuration I have as opposed to wheel spin which is the configuration the drift boys like to use. The same kit can be used to do both.

Axle tramp also know as diff bounce.
