turning issue

[LETZRIDE]

So I've begun to notice recently that if I go to make a turn off of a street and give it some gas, the rear end gets some wheel hop as I go around the corner. Occasionally the back end will begin to slide out...Today in the rain the car fishtailed sideways on me a little when I was making a left...I'm not giving the car much gas...atleast it shouldnt be enough to cause these issues that I havent had in the past... Any recommendations of what it could be? The tires are about 1 year old and still good...lower control arms are stock with moog bushings (been like that for 1 year) Car has Kyb shocks that are set to I think 2 in the rear (been like that for awhile)...I cant think of why this would start to happen now?

Re: turning issue

In the water I have to becareful it will get sideways easy, nothing really you can do. LS1's are really bad if you don't know how to drive them in the rain. My buddy's girlfriend back in the day with a stock 96' LT1 Camaro made a left turn dry road , gave it too much gas and ended up fish tailed into the light pole major damage she wasn't hurt though. She didn't know how to drive a car with that much power. She only got it because she liked mine and her rich parents bought it for her 18 yr. old. She got a new BMW after that. Must be good to have rich parents. I got to admit, she was fine though,damm.

P.S. When I have my stereo in the rear it doesn't fish tail as much with the weight and also the UMI TQ arm helps also, just thought I would though that in there.LOL

Re: turning issue

lol...well I have a torque arm waiting to go in when my mounts get here...and sfcs that need to go on to....but I never really had this problem before...the rain I know could be from the stall and I still need to get used to it...but regular driving on dry roads...never did this about a month ago...now all of a sudden it is an issue, but nothing has changed...it's almost as if the rear end is skipping along sideways in a turn...but the dry road issue is mainly on right hand turns...

Re: turning issue

Hows your tires, worn down? I have pretty much all of the suspension products in mine and even N/A if I get on it it will slide around in water , dry roads it will spin alittle then go back straight when the tires are hot. When they are cold they just hook, no spinning. This is with BFG G -Force tires 275/40/17's, pretty much new. Could be your stall then since I'm still on the stock stall, have to wait until the turbo goes on to see if I need a different stall and what rating after I dyno it. What stall do you have again 3200- 3500?
