Yep!

Depends on tyres I guess. Would be easier to spin 175's compared to 275's !

It'd also depend on road type, condition of car and transmission type. My EF auto if I plant it from stand still won't spin on tarmac (single spinner diff), but will on dirt and what not.
Moms car, which my car beats in a short drag, EB auto will though.

thats right, that air pump IS just for good looks and wouldnt be used to encourage illegal activities. My EB series one auto wont spin them from a standing start, and wont exactly do standstills. Ive got 215 michelins on, awesome grip, even in the wet. Itll spin across the intersection in the dry but. So far ive only recieved three warnings icon_smile.gif

Lol, the reason youve never seen it around is because since ive had it, its been to perth once. Im about 4 hours south of perth, maybe three. Depends whos driving and how they drive icon_razz.gif

Single spinner. Still, its not just one wheel all the time. in the wet, the second whell will kick in easy enough, but in the dry it stays nice and stable. At a standstill, both wheels will go but.

A Limited Slip Diff will only reduce wheel spin -like it was designed to do. If your main aim with your car is to melt tyres then stick with a single spinner and go buy some cheap 2nd hand tyres.

And try not to hit any poles or people or my car! icon_eek.gif

I dont see why an EF/EL with 157fwkw wouldn't spin an 3.45 LSD. My old 3.0L VL commodore with 114fwkw would spin the 3.45 LSD with no problems when you wanted it too.

I've only ever had manuals though.
