ok, as I said I don't push my car hard on road, I drive carefully and slowly in wet. Maybe it got something to do with the suspension, the Buddyclub N+ has a quite stiff spring rates, front 10, rear 8.

ouch at that pickup truck pic.

I know where your coming from and its not really your driving style like others have pointed out. Its your setup, thats all. Stiff suss wont see you going sideways unpredictably at really low k's but it is one of many factors, your camber, your tyre, and the amount of surface contact. get em all sorted out and you should have no drama other than your right foot. I addressed these issues and the problems gone away and I'm still running my stiff tiens.

Ahem

the car starts to "Drift"....sometimes in a hurry right turn

Thanks for coming.

I've driven a modified 5.0L Commodore SS auto with Goodyear F1s on the front and retreads on the back in the wet, and managed to not spin out. I can guarantee that car would have less wet weather rear grip, and a shedload more torque that is a lot less predictable in its delivery.

I don't have the castor, camber kits, I will get the camber kits see if make a different, if it still does the same thing, then i must be a bad driver

Coilovers are a contributor to this, i also had to much camber as i was running 18x10's with a big ofset, granted it was very fun coz all i had to do was turn the wheel in the wet and it would slide out nicely no matter what tyres i had on there... also having a light tuned RB26 mad the slides last :P its just a fact of life with these sorts of cars especially with coilovers +to much camber. its no fun to just putt around doing 20 in the rain so let it slide and just enjoy the ride

Its in the right foot......plenty of people drive around with this sort of HP at the rears only ( My VU ( ss ute ) is 700hp and over 1000nm rear wheel drive and not much weight in the back without the spare etc.... was a brilliant car to learn propper throttle control especially in the wet biggest issues where making a turn out of a side street uphill in the wet the rears would just spin and spin and it was almost impossible to get traction but after some proper practice and some forced self control....... it drives fine.

Tuning and changing your suspension may well help but learn to control what you have got appropriately first....

      Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.

      I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.

      Blue slip

      From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.

      They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
