What Do I Need 2 Fix This Problem?

[black_gtst]

hey all, was up at winton on the wknd and found when getting on the gas out of corners i had one wheel spinning. Car has kei office coilovers and i didnt have this prob with previous suspension setup. Was running some 16inch street tyres that seemed to be holding on way better than i thought they would. How do i fix this?....

1. New or second hand active lsd diff.

2. New lsd diff centre?

3. Decent swaybars in rear?

4. Different suspension with more travel?

or something else?...........

thanks heaps!

If you put stiffer springs in the rear, then you'll have less squat and therefore less grip for putting power down, but as long as you havent gone too far with spring rate, it should still improve lap times due to the improvement in cornering.

If you've lowered the car too far so its running too much negative camber at the rear, that can also compromise power down.

But, if you are single spinning it out of the corner then you'll need a diff rebuild, at which time you could think about stiffening up the LSD with shims to create more pre-load. There's some posts about it - try searching here, or maybe in the DIY section.

Also think about installing pineapples in the 'grip' orientation.

was thinkin that, so got home backed up the driveway and dropped a burnout and the diff still span 2 wheels without a worry........... hmmm

Hey brett you will find diff's on their way out will tend to start singling when you are getting the power down out of corners, though will have no problem chalking the both of them up from standing start (burnout)

I believe you will be able to get away with just shimming it up.

Buying a second hand diff could be a gamble.

Go buy some pineapples and rear camber arms and you will be more then happy.
