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.

when i first bought my celica it had a bad clutch, so every time i tried to get out hard it wouldnt, the tires didnt even spin, because the clutch was slipping, so i bought a oem clutch from pepboys, i got it installed the car felt really diffrent it even turned of on me a couple of time i wasnt use to it. right now the clutch has 3500 miles on it. and im running 7psi daily and the car does not have traccion issue...it all depend how you guys leave.what RPMS you bring it up to before letting the clutch go.also idk but mayb alot of traccion issue are because are cars are FF.usally RR take of way better.
