Now i know that this seems ridiculous but the last couple of days ive been going out in my car as its nice weather, and whenever i go round a corner with a bit of speed the backend steps out and not just slides but its drifts. Then it snaps back round into place, im not lifting off while im going around the corner nor am i going at silly speeds. my cars lowered 60mm and it usually goes round these corners fine but for some reason its just gone a bit wrong lately. anyone got any idea what could be wrong with it?? my tires are all brand new by the way. an the tires pressure is fine shocks and springs seem of but not really sure how to check them!! anything else it could be?

Nothin wrong with that. Your probably used to the car now and can go faster round corners. Check your speedo, see what your actually doing!
lol i knew someone would say it was fun but it scared the s**t out of me lol ill have a check of the tyre pressure and ill check my speedo but could it be the shocks or anything? and rear tyres are new on the back although one is a pirelli p6000 and the others is a unisport rain tyre its the pirrelli side that keeps sliding.
check your shocks aren't knackered, if your cars really bouncy then i'd change them, if you've just lowered it on springs and not uprated the shocks, its a common thing on all cars as standard shocks wernt made to be lowered thar far really

rear dampers are shot/leaking....i had the same problem so once changed to new ones all is good...im finally drive the 172 how is should be

I would check your rear dampners and I would also have the same make tyres on the rear mate.....

Maybe the first owner opted for rear wheel drive and a nissan lump, have you checked under the bonnet?

have it plugged into clip mate cos the Yaw sensor could have gone. Its a small balck box that sits just behind the gear stick in the plastic tunnel bit

mismatched tyres are never a great idea but shouldn't be that bad. Pirelli p6000 is a shocking tyre however. How did you check the rear shocks?
Quite common this time of year for the road to be a bit more greasy even in the dry. First rain after a bit of sun and a lot of oil comes to the surface.
