breaking traction allways left side?, FWD G6 ST202 JDM spec Options

[alexjb]

Hi,

Couldn't find this anywhere else but I'm sure it's out there.... but, is it all FWD celicas that break the left wheel traction first?
I had a similar problem on a modofied rover metro turbo (don't worry its crap and english, you don't need to know!) which has the mini A series engine with non equal length drive shafts, this caused the traction break and indeed torque steer in the metro.
Is the Celica the same?
New tyres both sides, shocks in good condition, just can't explain it.

That side of the car always spins because it's the torque side. At least thats what I think. You ever notice how the right front of rwd cars is the first to pick up? Thats because the power goes to the ground better on that side due to the spinning of the engine. Nascar cars run counter clockwise for that reason too. I'm not sure if fwd's hold the same principle, I've been told they do though. I would like someone to conferm this. I will try to find this though searching, so don't take this as 100% true yet.
