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 :(

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 :(

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!

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
