Rear end traction or lack of

[sscroat]

I own a VZ Thunder ute (auto) and just had a CAI + mafless tune done. My problem from before, and more so now, is that everytime I tramp it the back end losses traction therefore I stop having fun cause I have to let go of the accelerator.
Now, I know being a ute it's lite at the back, but would widening the rims/tyres make a whole lotta difference? At the moment I have 245's.
Or is there anything else I can do (apart from accelerating like a old woman) to stop the tyres from spinning everytime??

Get good tyres?

Dont accelerate as quickly?

Are you being serious? Try a smaller shoe size. The ones you're wearing are obviously too big.

Id be looking at your tyres. get some good tyres and not cheapies. Worth it.

i have always ran good tyres under the rear except once when i was comparing. The cheap tyres i could spin all day everyday. The expensive tyres i can put my boot into at the lights and will not spin. i might get a little chirp but thats about it.

Bare in mind im running a 3.7 diff as well as a baby stall and te normal bolts on. I would have thought your ute would grip not problems. As i stated id be looking at tyres.

I had this problem with my VY sedan.
I drive my old mans VX SS and never have a problem, yet I can turn out of a side road in my VY and all it wants to do is go sideways. There is little point in driving it in the wet.
And I'm talking about 20% throttle if that.
Sometimes its as if it has a locked diff, minus the rattle.

Embrace the wheelspin! Or...... buy a couple of bags of concrete.....and put them in the tray.

Reduce the foot to pedal compression ratio.

Riiight, the car either sits still or it spins up...

Not all the time obviously, its ALOT worse in the wet.
