I've noticed in wet weather the back end tends to slip out a lot more then it should, the tyres are actually good griping wise so what im wondering is: if strengthening the diff will help the back end stopping from slipping out so much? Also when trying to take off quick the back tyres spin heaps and it s**ts me off!!

Surely you cant be serious, its stepping out because its breaking traction with both wheels (LSD) when this happens it like being on ice, the way to avoid it is with tyre pressures, tyres and a stronger spring on the gas pedal.

Of course it will step out, its an LSD.. its wet, your probably not driving to the conditions, you have a heavy foot.
Although I had a similar problem in the dry, I went and got some good shocks.. Koni's, and it stopped the problem. But in the wet.. lol.. it will step out everytime, which is a good thing, you know what its going to do. |

Then you have really dodgey tyres even if they are showing good grip.
What tyres do you have? |

The tyres are Falken 245/40's so they are a pretty good tyre.
