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.

      33 GTR Broken front wheel knuckle

      By R32 TT · Posted

      Just had this happen to me too.  R32 GTR.   Also broke "just before going out onto the track" - someone up there is looking out for us... Very scary since I was about to do a narrow street course with zero run-off and curbs everywhere. Many people on here upgrading to billet uprights and R35 bearings?   Or buying new OEM knuckles?  I am not keen to replace with another s/h 30 year old fatigued part.

      Coolant leak?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Top off with distilled water and see what happens. If you keep losing coolant then you know to start looking.

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win?

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      By f00stx · Posted

      So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
