Is it just something wrong wit my car or is all st's have bad traction... even with 110hp my car spins and jumps from a take off pretty badly. My clutch is stock and is still very good, i got stock tires/rims but even so it just doesnt seem to have good traction so once its turboed i dun even wana think about all the spinning it will have from take off.

i have a GT and have the same problem. but i think i know what the problem is
1. both mine and yours have the stock clutch. They are crap. the sweet spot is so long that its hard to judge how much gas and how much cluch to release. Toyotas and the way the throttle reacts is very different, to me atleast, then any other car ive drove. 2. i noticed a big difference when i got Z rated tires on the car. Better gripping tires, better grip. Panda has a stage 1 clutch on his car and i never just in his, so im pretty sure its the crap clutch that toyota put in these cars. |
