Monday was my first time ever driving on slippery roads… took a left turn too fast at an intersection (30km/h) and started sliding… (in a FWD Corolla) Scared me… cuz there were cars around n shit… but I managed to sorta countersteer out of it… it was fun… Cannot wait to try some crazy shit on the backroads near my home… :R ---

yeah FWD sucks, if you lose traction with your front wheels you can’t steer, giver gas, main braking, anything really. RWD all the way ---

you’re only partially correct david…STi = fulgy. I haven’t driven AWD/4WD yet, so I can’t comment on whether or not it’s actually better. But hands down RWD \> FWD. ---

The STi gets sideways just as easily as a 350z. If you stomp on it in a turn, the back slides out, it happened to me on a test drive =). ---

Regarding the ebrake, I’ve been driving for quite a while now and I would rather swing the rear end out then plow forwards in a FWD car having no control. RWD\>FWD because it’s predictable and correctable. ---

Jason, STi imo doesn’t look that bad. the style says “what? wanna \*\*\*\* with me? i got 300hp AWD BITCH” kinda look. S15\_2nv - STi’s probably just slide as much as 350z, but probably more predictable swing out since all 4 wheels are propelling rather than RWD where it just comes out like “WTF GOTTA COUNTERSTEER FAST!!!” ---

I think both cars were fairly equally predictable, but in theory if you were to lose control, the sti should be able to recover better. I do agree that the 350z’s get sideways easily. The sti I was driving only got sideways because I dropped a gear and ripped it on the onramp, heh. ---
