Your "slight squeak" is probably your power steering belt giving way. You should get that done.

I did a donut in the middle of an intersection once and then kept on going (the car straightened out the right way). It looked dope as ####.

the only ones ive done are on snow, those are the easiest and you just keep going around, gotta whatch out for those huge lights they have in parking lots though. thats pretty nice S13grl, did you mean to do it, or was it one of those cool accidental things?

At first it was an accident, but then I kept on going, the intersection was empty. It was like 2am.  It started to slide, and I just cut the wheel and floored it.

4WD donuts are the best. I took my tercel out on an ice covered parking lot, threw it in 4x4 then hit the gas, cut the wheel and just spun in place.

In sport compact somebody had a 2 engine tiberon.  THey showed pictures of him putting one engine in reverse and another in Drive and doing donuts. the Black marks looked funny.

my car will not do donuts. i believe it is from the 2nd hand mismatched worn out CHEAP tires i have. it understeers severely from the tires. i'm buying bridgstones to get use out of the suspension upgrades.

one night a few weeks after getting my car, i ahd two friends with me, one was leaving for a long trip in a few days....

i pulled up to an intersection at one end of town and the light was red, it was about 1:30 am during the week and there was no one in sight...

my buddy adam sitting shotty says, show dom (the guy in back) what this thing can do...

&quot;aight&quot;

gave a looka round and in the mirrors, nobody.

i gave her and did about 4 donuts right in the middle of the intersection at a red light and it was sweet, the tires were olay before that but were nonexistant afterwards... it was awesome

hehe, don't you guys remember the big craze of 4wd import sedan/wagons? Nissan made the stanza in 4wd for a while, as well as another car, can't remember the name. Anyway, the tercel is an 86. It's 4wd with low gear.

Edit: The other car was the sentra, they made a 4wd wagon from 87-90

On new years morning 2001, my buds and i where geting some crub at a local Dennys and I hit some donuts in the parking lot. It wasn't a figure eight or anything but i ended up burning rubber in 6 circles and straighting out in time to split before the workers could call the cops. I remember the expression on the workers face, they were all abit stocked at such recklesness, it was intresting.....Please don't try this at home, unless you want to get arrest or injuried...I was stupid and have change my reckless ways =)

I have done soooo many donuts...
After I came out of the theatres after seeinf Fast and Flaming..I mean furious...I was pumped to drive...
I blasted &nbsp;six or seven donuts on dry pavement and also killed a pair of Dunlop 225'50r16's

Oh well...back to cheap tires...

heh.. rwd-- I love it.. especially when one of the first statements made by domestic fans are how imports are all shitty fwd.. oh well.. the 2nd week after I had the car out-- my friends were all standing lookin at the car in front of the local pool hall.. (like 12am) and these kids with the rear wheel drive muscle cars walked up to check my ride... and one kid(obnoxious bastard with a mustang) came out loud to say how shitty imports are since all of them are front wheel drive and can't do shit and referred mine as especially a horrid car since it was nissan.. I was like &quot;oh really&quot; .. ..
Then the domestic kids proceded to go and do donuts in the lot in front of the pool hall too prove how domestics can do more.. well.. I rolled out to the spot where they were and one kid chimed in how it was too bad I couldn't do what they could do.. HEHE-- well did I show em as soon the kid with the mustang decided to roll up.. I dropped it in and lit my tires up-- -fished my back end around and filled the lot up in smoke-- lost like 1/8 inch of tread-- but ####-- it was so worth it too see there faces :o and comments.. now they all have some respect for the 240's that roll around my town :wink:

And the 4wd civic. There were 4wd corollas too, I think.

Oh, oh, dont forget the 4wd Mazda 323. I bet these cars make awesome rally beaters.

I go out in the mall parking lot on snow and do donuts and long drufting turns and powerslides all the time... it is just too much fun to not do... I get an audience sometimes, that is a lot of fun, just that little bit of water that freezes under the snow making it just soooo easy to lose the car... I will miss winter.

I guarentee your car will do a donut. &nbsp;Easy way.. &nbsp;go about 25 mph, cut right a little to get the body to sway, then cut left smooth but hard and floor it.. &nbsp;then when you lose traction in the rear you will begin to come around. &nbsp;to make a really nice donut, you have to cut the wheel back to counter-steer a little, you might start to slow a little as well, sometimes a downshift to first then another upsift too second is necessary. &nbsp;But you will get it. &nbsp;the 240 is exceptionally easy to do this in w/ all that lovely torque.

We did them on the weekends if it was raining. &nbsp;We would venture to my highschool parking lot. &nbsp;Best I could do was a 720 as I flew across the parking lot. &nbsp;remember.. Not stationary donunts
