Hi everyone Im wondering is it possible to do donuts in a 2 litre auto omega with a lsd diff  ?

[TheBoy]

The obvious question is why  :-/


In the dry, a 2.0l auto would need shite tyres and some provocation to get it going, and I doubt it has the power to keep it going.

But I can't think of a possible reason why you would want to.

[Vamps]

I did manage a tiny bit of wheel spin pulling onto the the main road from Dale Bottom Farm, I think that may have been more to do with the loose surface than the power of my 2.2 though...........

[Lazydocker]

As above... I think a 4 pot will struggle to brake traction in the dry unless the tyres are pants. A V6 however

But why would you want to, unless it's just to give the tyres a send off :-? :-?

You could always try fitting some Linglongdingalong laminated Chinese import tyres, that should do it

As above why? If thats what you want to do you have the wrong combo of engine and box

a 3.0 manual however.

sell the car and buy  a v6 manual.. there are many nice cars in the sale section..  and please dont try with good brand tires..

my rear tyres were £220 a pop  Sometimes the temptation kicks in and oh she goes.

However if I wanted to be a herbert all night on McDonalds car park I have 2 spare wheels at home with bald tyres lol

thanks guys the car was part payment for some work I did for a friend I know its not the best car for sideways action just wondered if I could have some fun in it i decide what to do with it (sell it or maybe break for parts)
thanks again

if you can get some where with loose gravel you will be able to do donuts no problem. with it being auto i think it will be hard o get it going in wet but might.

ive a 3L manual and dry tarmac good or bad tyres and its plenty fun. id recommend one if your looking to play about in the car. i regularly take mine to diffing events and best car ive had for it better than the bmws ive had

Second question is: how did a 2.0 come to have a limited slip diff fitted?  :-/

Can vouch for that one. Buy wheels. 2 with Linglongs, fit sc3's on the front. Bit of wet road, even a 1litre could get the back out. Most amusing, until the Mrs drives it and i have to correct the slide from the passenger seat.

I know its a different engine but my 2.5TD auto can be persuaded to spin round but its much easier when the tarmac is damp or wet. I think it has the same bhp as the 2.0 but more torque

Good question, well spotted!

I suppose I should have been more specific im a dab hand with a stick welder and if you guys said the car had enough power to do donuts with the auto box i was going to weld the diff
