Default When do you lose traction?
This is only for people with stock suspension.

I've got a D16Z6 boosted with a TD04-13G.
It's sitting on heavy 17" wheels with 240mm wide tread.

I dont know if its just cold today, but at 3500 RPM and full throttle I lose all traction in 5th.
I am easily spinning the tires in every gear. In one sense, this is great, in another, my car is slow.

You wish your D16 had enough power to spin 5th gear.
