ive got a project lined up putting a 3sgte into a Australian st204r and my goal is 400-450 hp , but im a lil worried about traction at those kinda powers esp. since it is a front wheel drive.
am i paranoid or is it gonna be uncontrollable.

also is an awd conversion an option

Do like I plan to do...

Make a RWD conversion and buy a Gt4.. So you'll end up with a 4wd and a Rwd smile.gif

But yes, it will probably get uncontrolable because the wheels that spin are also the ones that directs the car. So if you get too much power your wheels will slip if you floor it and therefor you won't have any control over your steering because of the lack of traction between the tires and the asphalt.
