I am trying to put together a list of parts to eliminate the zig-zag torque steer our SS/TC's have under hard acceleration - so my question is : Would the Powell LCAB's, Powell Rotated Trans Mounts, and hard core bar get rid of most of it??? I know that we can't totally eliminate it but I would like it to be more manageable.

 

Have you any suspension mods as it is?

 

None - its completely stock.

 

Really? You're having issues with the torque steer of an SS/TC? I don't even notice it, even when my car pulls hard. Buy a car with less torque.

 

Also, torque steer does not "Zig-Zag" it pulls one way. It is you that is causing the "Zig-Zag".

 

flat road surface only mod needed...

 

When i got the Stage 1 w/ the stock Contis, my limited slip would kick in on WOT 2nd gear runs and I would get exactly this zig zag scenario.

Now, with the Goodyear GT's, no problem as I get more traction.

As far as the OP's post - no clue on how to solve it. Wrong wheel drive for the lose ...


Oh, well.

i have stance coils, powell cab's, powell mounts and my car is still all over the road in 3rd gear under power. it's an open diff trans and you have to fight it just to stay in your lane

 

that^^^^^ or get a 5.0 done!

 

Turn off the traction control.

 

u jus need a driver mod..when i didnt hav LSD mine would try to tq steer u jus gotta fight it..now i got shorter gears and LSD...much better

 

WOW - so it looks like what I listed isn't going to do the trick.

 

i do make just a smidge more power than the rest of the forum though

 

than the rest of the forum? yaaaaaaaaa no

 

should have said most. make more power than you though

 

Thanks Britt, - I am currently running the Extreme Contact DW's so traction is there it's just overshadowed by the Tq Steer!!!

 

yes u make alot of power but not more than the forum..didnt mean to sounds lik a dick jus tryin to be correct...and yes u prolly do i nvr say u didnt i nvr dyno'd my setup so idk wher i even stand neways

 

i'm just messing around man. chill out

 

lol ik u r im not tryin to be a dick bout it...i really do uk u make a good amount of power ive look at ur mod list in another thread and ive heard sum good things bout ur car as well

 

josh your car isnt that fast chill out. its probably between the 450-470whp which is nothing, hell my 2.8 pullyed car can walk away from yours...

 

YYZ help by making the rear stiffer under load, so the car does not lift as much at the front, therefore less torque steer. I was not expecting that result, but it proved out in testing.

 

Woot, I'm on a 2.7. Get stomped BIYATCH!. ROFL

Torque steer is 1/2 the fun so enjoy it.

Also to whoever said Eagle GT's were a good tire. You're a ******* idiot. It's the worst and nearly cheapest tire on the market. So many better tires, **** some for cheaper.

 

Would that be similar to putting in drag bags or something???

 

Torque steer on a stock lnf is almost unnoticeable. You need to man up.

on my 20 psi tune it barely torque steers and only usually on shitty roads or if I turn the wheel.

 

It is when you go from a base model I was like damn i cant keep the wheel straight. Now that I'm use to it I don't notice it all unless I'm on a fubar road.
