Hey guys, everytime I try to do a burn out, it doesn't work, seens like the diferential locks. So how can I do it?

 

Welcome to the forum,

 

Make sure ur VDC is off man

 

auto or manual?

 

yes, VDC must be off, thats for starters

 

try finding a HUGEEE EMPTY parking lot and hit the VDC button to turn it off! start the burn-out, and hit circles

i've done it, but not in an empty parking lot, more like a mountain lol

feel sorry for my rear tires

 

1. Search it
2. Automatic or manual?
3. VDC off
4. Dont total your G

 

yeah I had the VDC off and I can easily do donuts, but when I hold the breaks to do a burn out the tires stop spinning and smoke comes out from underneath the car

 

Um, don't do that. If you don't have the right conditions, brake-assisted burnouts can "burnout" more than you want (transmission, torque converter if 5AT).

From what you've said, it sounds like you have an automatic. The G35 doesn't have enough torque at low rpms to initiate spinning every time. Especially when you are holding pressure on the brake which creates addition rear wheel friction (because of rear brakes) for the engine to overcome. Traction has a lot to do with it, as in, try to find a very smooth surface and if it rains, that an even better time to practice. Otherwise you're risking a lot if you don't know what you're doing. (No meanness intended)

 

Ya, becareful man, you couldcause some serious damage if you dont know what your doing, especially with a 5AT. I wont even do burnouts in my 6MT, only donuts and launches

are u serious? rain needed to do a burnout in a G?

obviously no one has told you that when u press both the brake and gas pedal at the same time. the ecu cuts the power. to get around this, you have to pull the brake fuse. someone also sells a switch, so you don't have to pull the fuse everytime a burnout is wanted...

 

IMO burnouts are like throwing money out the window. My rear tires were $750 for the pair. Sure I chirp them sometimes because it's fun but to sit there and spin them on purpose? Why? They only last 15K miles as it is without abuse. But hey if you have the bucks spin away my brutha...

 

Yea, my tires cost that much too. One must respect
their car, doing burnouts isn't the way! Oh yea, here's something else. If and when you do a burnout
make damn sure there isn't a cop watching ya.....

 

Yeah I don't know what you would want to, I've done break torque a few times, and it just seems like a good way to take off.

JDM doesn't burnout...

Work on your powerslides/corner drifting if you want to wreck your tires...

Nothing impresses your friends like slidding threw empty corners (or traffic if you have a huge life insurence policy)
