Take right foot off accelerator, common problem in a lot of peoples cars on fordxr6turbo forums ha.

400km of driving with not much more than 200rwkw at my disposal and tha'ts a ford rear diff bush. I'll be replacing mine with a super pro branded bush, adjusting driving style is probably why I havent killed my BA yet after 20,000 really really hard kilometers bringing it over 150,000 now (like multiple sets of tyres shredded up lots of donuts and yeah general boosting around heh).

Sounds like the dreaded diff bush. Try Superpro or white line.

What tyres are you using and what suspension setup do you have? Get some half decent tyres like Nitto Invos and you should notice a change in grip.

hey john yeh I reckon I might take my right foot of accelarator for a start that might help lol its a bit a though:-) yeh mines a 2004 ba mark one but I've only done 60,000k on mine I only started to mod it in the last few months with the stage 2 set up I got its 269kw at the wheels do you guys still reckon it could be the diff bushes because the car has'nt really got high kilometre

thanks velocity I take it to my ford man then for the super pro the tires I got on them are falken's forgot which ones but they cost me around 270 bucks per tire which are only a couple months old how much are those nittos invos??? ohh and the suspension are still standed if I change them do you reckon it will help with traction

When adding power you'll find all the weak points start working harder and eventually wear out or break

Expect to get your wallet out for a complete bush replacement front and rear! Helps control brake shudder, sloppy handling and axle tramp. To some degree driveline clunks as well but these seem to have a lot even from factory.

A tip is to replace the front shock to control arm bush with standard rubber not a harder aftermarket or it makes the ride very noisy.

PS you're lucky, this thread seems to be full of actual advice, we haven't gone way off topic....yet.
