Have you gotten together with BGTV8 yet? Or anybody in your local car club that's experienced with high powered cars?

Many that have commented (here and the VDC Off thread) have some combinations of good/great understanding in handling dynamics, long seat time in a boosted Z, strong mechanical background. If you don't believe in their assessments, then you should seek some in-person diagnosis of your car.
I was only deciding on the tyres is because I probably should go upto a semi-slick anyway for the increase in dry grip. Its gotta be better than the PSS even if there is some other issue with the car and not the tires.


Haven't got with GBVT8 yet. Hopefully i can when he gets down here.

And I am actually ringing around a few shops in SA to see who could have some seat time and work out if there is any suspension problems with my car.

Another things I noticed just now, is when I am turning corners, at traffic lights into new streets etc, I can hear a squaling sound like the tires are squealing. But I have only very light part throttle on, so how could my tires be squealing like that? Unless it's something else, like could it be the quaife diff?

Anyone experienced this squealing sound even just with very light throttle when turning?
